Countdown to the greatest show on earth: The 2010 World Cup
-
imagine if singapore is through and have replaces north korea in group g...
-
all the best to brazil.
spain for the cup !

Predictions 1st - 2nd
Group A: France - South Africa (Depends on how much home advantage SA gets)
Group B: South Korea - Argentina (Deigo still in charge, SK might have a chance to get 1st. Greece might not have enough quality)
Group C: England - Usa (Straight foward group)
Group D: Germany - Serbia (My group of death. Germany should be first, Serbia to just edge out Ghana)
Group E: Holland - Cameroon (Holland too much class, Cameroon to barely beat Denmark)
Group F: Italy - Paraguay (World Champs too much quality, 2nd between Paragauy and Slovakia. Paraguay with abit more experience in WCs takes it for me)
Group G: Ivory Coast - Brazi/Portugal (Ivory Coast to win this group. Either Brazil or Portugal to come second, comes down to Brazil vs Portugal)
Group H: Spain - Switerland (Easy group for Spain. Swiss might just have enough to see off Chile)
Just hunches. See how I fare in June.

Spain may have it easy in the group stages but their next round could be anyone of these 3... Ivory Coast / Brazi / Portugal...
I hope Spain get kick out in the knock-out stage...
-
after this group stage...knock out is vs 2 time or 1?

Dangerous next round for Spain. But why you want them out?
Who will you be supporting anyway? I'm england and spain.
-
Cases of deja vu:
- England and United States reunite (the male host had to mention 1950 on the stage when beckham was like less than 2m away from him?)
- Portugal and North Korea meet again since 1966 when Eusebio led his team to an incredible comeback from 0-3 down to beat the koreans 5-3 in the quarter-finals
- Whats the chance of having 3 teams drawn in the same group for two different world cups? Argentina, Nigeria and Greece (grp B in WC2010) were also in the same group during WC1994. Greece were the beating boys then when they were trounced in every group game.
People who would be unhappy about the draw:
- Germans
- Australians
- Portugese
- Irish (for an obvious reason, even though they are not there)

I support England as well but if they can't win it, then I would prefer an underdog side to win it...

their leader : redraw the lots or i will nuke south africa

Not necessary African teams lah... The Japan and Korea sides or even other European sides like Holland, Serbia, Denmark kind lor... Or USA also can... But I know chances of it happening are very slim lah...
But hey, if Greece and Denmark can pull off surprises in the Euros, so why not right...
-
How can holland be classed underdogs?
I just cant see an african team winning this year, or asian either. Its Europe for me but I think paraguay might suprise a few people.
-
They are if you look at the other teams... Brazil, Spain, Italy, Germany, Argentina and even England, France and Portugal. I guess they are probably the underdog among the favourites... lol
-
This time round, my favourites are England, Spain, Brazil, Germany, and maybe holland.
Dark horses - USA and CIV and maybe paraguay
-
dun underestimate N Korea...i see them capable to go to the semis...
-
Oo
i lolx at Group G
Portugal (C.Ronaldo), Ivory Coast (Drogba), Brazil (Kaka,Ronaldinho) North Korea
Realli hope North Korea can beat Portugal -
-.-
