Spain wins after penalties.

[Jay Bee]

He he, I guess there is room to be optimitic: it's impossible to do it worse

[Mercator]

That penalty shoot-out was laughable! They missed half of them.
Both deserved to go on, though. (the Irish a bit more so if just by the merit of this game)

[Ecthy]

I can't believe Eli is in the lead.

I demand a recount!

[Laertes]

Outstanding predictions

Outstanding as in late

Mexico 3-1 USA
Brazil 3-2 Belgium
Japan 3-2 Turkey
Korea 1-2 Italy

[Ecthy]

Where's my recount?

[Eli]

Go away spammer.

The US leads 2-0.

[Paul]

Mexico - USA 0-2

And Eli gets another 3 points. But at least my predicted champion is still in the tournament.

[Robert]

you predicted USA as the winner ?

[Paul]

No, I predicted Italy. Eli predicted Argentina, so he certainly won't get the 10 points for predicting the champion. If Italy wins I can at least catch up with Eli.

[MikeH]

I haven't scored any points for ages.

[Kropotkin]

I think I'm going to start to bet against my own thoughs. If I start betting on england and the US they are sure to get out before you can say "Brad Friedel is a tosser by Hernandez is even worse"...

If Belgium wins now I'm not sure what I'll do.

How many points do we get for predicting the top scorer corectly?

[Paul]

Top scorer is 6 points. Or 2 points of he finishes second. World champion is 10 or 3.
