World Cup 2014 Predictions

[Gucumatz]

The Greek friendlies continue to be a throwback to the 2004 Euros... Honestly I expect them to advance. Sure their talent isn't that great, but they quit a compact unit

 

[Grisu]

I fear Switzerland will be eliminated after playing three times 0-0 in a row

[Rashiminos]

Ronaldo gets booked for simulation on the 22nd.

 

[Quackers]

Interesting picks MV. I didn't know you followed soccer.
I agree with you on the majority and I'm glad you have put faith in England (many of my friends are convinced we won't make it out of the group). I'm not sure Belgium are finalists yet. I think 2018 will be a better year for them. They're all a bit too young atm.

 

[madviking]

I'm excited for Sturridge and Barkley but not Hodgson.

 

[BabbChris]

Brazil got off to rocky starts when an own-goal by Marcelo gifted Croatia with the first point of the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Neymar is on fire, he has 2 goals plus 1 goal from Oscar
and Brazil wins at 3-1 over Croatia.

 

[BabbChris]

Congrats to Brazil

[classical_hero]

My predictions have gone up in smoke and it only took day two for it too happen.

 

[Kyriakos]

Wel, not that i give a crap about football/soccer, but (lol) Greece is #10 in world rank (Switzerland is #8 cause it is even more of a soccer superpower) and the group seems very weak, so i suppose this team (which i haven't seen for years, and only watched some stuff following 2004 and all that farce) can beat Japan and maybe even the Ivory Coast (although the latter likely actually have some level of football). So given 2 teams pass, i would not be surprised if Greece goes on, although i won't if it doesn't either.
