my prediction <yeah_right>England 2 Brazil 0</yeah_right>
sorry George but its all too much for me & I had to post, I will beat my self later (especially if we lose) as pennance
Indeed, it's 5:37am and I'm up waiting for kick off. The whole of England is off work to watch in the pubs etc :D
Brazil have shown muchos arrogance, can't help feeling we're doomed to fail though, this unbeaten run has to end sometime. :(
Hey...1 nothing England just now :thumbsup: ! 2:56 A.M here now though and I think I'll be missing the rest :( . Will catch the USA vs Germany game later this morn though ;). Who do ya pick to make it to the finals? My oldest is into Soccer big time and is holding out better than I am right now, watching 'till the end...lol.
2-1 to Brazil with 15 minutes to go :(
Ronaldinho sent off harshly.
England play too deep, they don't take advantage of players like Keiron Dyer through their negativity.
End result: 2-1 to brazil... Oh well
I'm severly upset.. but hey.. that's football.. its an emotional game for everyone!
Luckily, i'm off to germany 2006 - well, i got the plans drawn up, just gotta save :)
Jee
you think thats bad! you sould have seen the face of the people who spent millions on advertising with the french football team only to find out they hadnt even scored one goal in the whole world cup! makes me laf really.

Let the beatings begin... ;)
I'm really not into soccer - but is the US team actually good? (I would ask about my Canadian team.. but in Canada - well.. we don't have a team, cause Hockey reigns supreme :D)

I'm expecting Germany to win in the final... dunno why, Brazil just aren't that good, they won by a lucky goal today and presumably will be missing Ronaldinho.
USA aren't very good but did well this tournament reaching the qf's. Canada didn't qualify.
Like I said - Soccer just isn't Canada's thing...
:thumbsup: :thumbsup: for hockey! Can you say 'double gold' ??
boooooooo yeah!

All I have to say is Germany is lucky they had Kahn in goal.
It is to bad the US media could care less about the World Cup and soccer. The only way they would start caring is if they could play commercials every 5 minutes.
Oh Well...I guess I will have to cheer for South Korea now since they helped us out.

No sport unites both countries and the world like football. It's quite amazing really.
