[Paul]

If you still want to join you have to hurry. The opening match kicks off in 35 minutes.

[MikeH]

Can I change my prediction for top scorer to Trezuguet?

[Paul]

Yes, you can. Any predictions for top scorer or world champion can be changed until the beginning of France-Senegal. Predictions for group winners can be changed until the first match of the group. Predictions for match results can be changed until the beginning of the match.

Please post any changes to your predictions in a new post. I'm not going to go through the whole thread to see if people have edited their posts.

[MikeH]

Thanks.

[Paul]

France - Senegal 0-1

Mercator gets 2 points. Everybody else gets no points. That makes Mercator the first leader in the Apolyton World Cup predictions.

[Kropotkin]

Oh what a game! I gladly miss out on a few points for that one. Diouf was a God in the first half, coly was also good.

i remember that *someone* here thought that Senegal didn't havething to do in the WC as countries like for example *Holland* weren't and Senegal wasn't good enough for anything.

[mark13]

Wow!

Well, I got the '1' right at least. Do I get any points for that?

[Ecthy]

Is it too late to make predictions for the other games?

No, you can still make predictions for the other games and for the group winners of groups B-H.
