Germany with their Polish strike-force of Klose and Podolski should make the game tonight a cracker tonight and I'm thinking it's gonna be down to penalties with Ballack missing the crucial one! Cruel cruel world aint it.
Argentina should start Messi but i think Pekerman has enough talent in his team to beat the host. The German defence hasn't really been tested so far. Argentina by penalties. *Fingers crossed*
The 'diving' Italians should just knocked out the equally boring Ukrainians. No De Rossi and no Materrazzi and not many goals but hey it's Italy! I say 1-0? Diving alert!
Besides Shevchenko there is no one. Which makes Ukraine really a one man team. Sure Rebrov and Kalin-something-ko can pull a few strings but at this stage you need more than that. Will make Italy sweat though. To lose but one goal.
England.. tsk tsk .. Winning ugly. Rio & John Terry need to wake up or else Pauleta and co will bury them. Rooney needs to show why he's so highly rated. I think this game is the toughest to call so whoever scores first LOSES.
Portugal without Deco? Is Figo too old to run the midfield? Ronaldo to play? Sheesh, i really don't like the drama which Portugal bring. Nevertheless, Scolari has made them into a formidable team. Diving alert!
Brazil the reigning champions to go out at the Quarters! They seem to be firing on all guns at the moment but haven't met a team with a respectable strike-force. Calling all Brazil fans place your bets! LOL
France will make the most of their ageing squad and punish the Brazilian defence. (That's what i'm hoping la!) Vieira and Henry to score. France 2-1 and Mrs. Barthez below will be all smiles!
In conclusion, Argentina vs Italy and England/Portugal vs France.
On an ending note, spare a thought for the African and Asian teams whom didn't make it this far. Only Ghana made it to the second round and went out fighting. Perhaps the next World Cup will see an African team in the semis? Korea were the best placed Asian team and perhaps with Australia joining AFC we won't have that many big losses in the future (Think Saudi 8-0 (2002) in Asia!)
