[QUOTE="Jdvn1, post: 2907161, member: 26424"] I think these are no-brainers. It's possible Sweden and Mexico could play excellent football and Germany and Argentina to fall on their faces, but they're really strong teams. I don't see that happening. Plus, both teams have been impressive so far. Had Equador been in a tougher group, I wouldn't have expected them to make round 2. As such, I can't expect them to go very far. Then again, I haven't been following Equador. I'm still rooting for England. When England's on, they're on. Maybe this one and the Equador-England game will go to golden goal (or do they do penalty kicks?)? This is a close game to call, but I'd have to go with Portugal here. Okay, Australia has played excellent football, but Italy's my favorite team, hands down. I don't think they're going all the way, but I'll root for them as long as they last. They're a solid team with a lot of color, and good calcio basics (did you like how I used the Italian term there?). Plus, Italy fought hard in, I think, the hardest group of the first round. Go Italy! Yep. Though, Ghana's got to be the most interesting team of the second round. FIFA ranking of 48? Wow. [i]And[/i] they snuck past two of the top 5 teams in the world? Whoa. France is loaded with talent, but so is Spain. I mean, both top-10 teams. C'mon. This will probably be the best game to watch--two first class teams going head to head. I'm surprised you can call this so easily, because I can't at all. And, I like both teams, so I can't be biased about this as much. ;) How about this? I've been reading a Spanish author who's really cool, so I'll call Spain. But... I really like crepes. Too close to call. [/QUOTE]
