World Cup predictions - the second round

[Paul]

The first matches of the second round will be played on Saturday, so it's time to start a new thread even if not all the teams are known yet. But if we wait until all first round matches are played we will have less than 24 hours left to post our predictions.

In the knock-out stage of the tournament we will predict the results after the regular 90 minutes. If a match ends in a draw, goals scored in extra time or a penalty shoot-out don't count for our predictions.

Here are the matches. I'll fill in the remaining countries when we get to know them. I've also included the schedule for the rest of the tournament. In the second round you will get 3 points for predicting the correct winner or a draw and 3 bonus points for the exact score.

Second round:
49 15-06 08:30 Germany - Paraguay (Seogwipo)
50 15-06 13:30 Denmark - England (Niigata)
51 16-06 08:30 Sweden - Senegal (Oita)
52 16-06 13:30 Spain - Republic of Ireland (Suwon)
53 17-06 08:30 Mexico - USA (Jeonju)

No-one has gone for anything but a draw between England and Denmark .

Don't worry, I will.

I'll just wait until I can predict all 8 matches, that's all.

[Carolus Rex]

Denmark will win.

Too late to join the competition?

You can still join Carolus, just post your predictions of the remaining matches. Predictions of group winners, top scorer and World Champion are of course long overdue, but the remaining matches are up for grabs.

[JohnIII]

Eli, change that Den - Eng score around NOW. I want nobody cursing us.
