He doesn't.

do you know when brazil's next game is?

I thought it was the 26th, apparantly it's the 27th.

alright, thanks.

brazil's games are the only ones ive actually planned to watch, and theyre the only ones that ive missed.

I'm not very happy about that last game.

That was never a penalty in a million years!!!! As usual, Italy's cheating ways get them the win, they looked very average to me today, but that's what you get when you don't take advantage of them having ten men

Comiserations to Australia, but they weren't ruthless enough

^IT was a total BS call.....I hate it when the Refs decide an outcome of a game....

That should have never been a penalty, I would have prefered the gone to a penalty shoot out than this because Australia did well but not well enough to score on a 10 man Italian team.

Man, I luv U2! It's a beautiful day.....whistling

But seriously, Italy aren't overrated. They're good, aren't they?

Switzerland and Ukraine...what do you guys think?

Swiss, I don't see Sheva being able to do much in this game. The Swiss have a good defense. But I could be wrong.

Ukraine... they don't have much quality.. but I think they have to much for Switzerland.

I hope I am wrong cuz Sheva's on my fantasy team 😛

I want Ukraine to win, I think they've performed better and stepped their game up since their 4-0 defeat.

-AC

The only team they were able to beat convincingly thus far was Saudi Arabia and they needed a penalty to beat Tunisia. Not exactly what I consider stepping up their game but call it what you will.

Spain vs France? Any thoughts? Who will come out victorious? Will Henry show up?

Spain

Germany and Argentina, who's gonna win?

That's a tough one. If you had to base it on most recent performance I would say Germany. I think it will depend a lot on who plays midfield for Argentina. Whoever controls the midfield battle should win that match.

Argentina..

Ukraine and Switzerland are cancelling eachother out.....could we see our first shoot out here??

On a side note, Shevchenko is a genius, the left footed drill he did earlier out of nothing almost crept in
