Now Denmark have to beat Japan and my day will be fine. If they fail to do it will be fine anyway, thanks to the loads of ice cold beers in the fridge! :cheers:

So far every single South American Team is still UNDEFEATED, and they all get through the Round of 16 in the FIRST POSITION, tomorrow CHILE will play against SPAIN, i an match that will be very exciting, a match that could mean the glory for Chile or a total disaster :(

I hope for the best, Chile will play to win... and if that happens, ALL southamerican teams are gonna be first in their respectives groups.

So i ask you a question for you to debate:
¿What do you think about the SouthAmerican Teams so far?
¿Why do you think European teams are not doing so well, like italy, france... etc?

looking forward for your analisis ;)

Cheers

Hey dude,

Question to you: what do you mean when you say INVICTED?

I think that the problems around the European teams come from the fact that the coaches can't get 100% out of the qualities of their players simply because they choose the wrong tactics (Italy) or that the coach isn't capable of managing a national team (Domenech)

I think South American teams can play some nice football

i definately agree with you...italy for example has great offensive players too, but they are nearly never allowed to show their qualities in this defensive tactic :(

France is obvious why :P Italy, they are too old and they did not have a playmaker that could feed the strikers, De Rossi couldnt do all by himself and he wasnt even that great.

Spain have always being under achievers, although I have them as potential winners, it could also be the fact that the spanish press and media had the team winning the cup without breaking a sweat and that puts a lot of pressure on the team. England, i dont know... i really dont.

I am glad all south american teams are doing great, in fact, Honduras is the only team from America that might not make it, all the rest did...

I am hoping for Mexico to pull a miracle against argentina; it will be hard although Mexico tends to give argentina a hard time in official competition (except copa america 2 years ago) but our coach is a complete dumbass of lately and he is killing the careers of three of our most talented young players... we'll see. Last time we were really close, hopefully the youngsters will come through on sunday
