Life In 19x19

Anyone have predictions on tomorrow's matches?

South Korea vs Greece
England vs USA
Argentina vs Nigeria

I'd say South Korea vs Greece = 1-0 with a late goal by South Korea

The others are too difficult, but I'll be rooting for USA, so I'm hoping it's something like a 2-0 victory(hahaha, good luck with this). As someone who wants an entertaining game though, I hope it's an exciting game(very close most likely) regardless of the winner.

The last game I have no idea about but I assume Argentina will probably win, just by the overall popularity in their respective countries of this game.

After Henry got in the game I thought france could do...

You have to admit though, Henry calling handball was pretty hilarious. I'm sure he, of all people, knows what a handball looks like.

Also, watching Uruguay turtle after they got widdled to 10 men was fun too .

Predictions:
S.Korea 2 : 1 Greece
England 1 : 2 USA
Argentina 2 : 0 Nigeria

People think I'm crazy for the first two .

Also:

No idea at all

I thought we only had those here.

I just hope the US has a good showing this year. I'm definitely looking forward to us upsetting England! Man, that would be awesome!

Haha, I like it. Looking forward to watching the USA v England match tomorrow with some buddies. Right before a LAN party.

Tomorrow is going to be a good day.

Sure, I can predict:

South Korea 1 - 1 Greece
England 2 - 0 USA
Argentina 2 - 1 Nigeria

My bets:

South Korea 2 - 0 Greece (greece with two strikers oO that cant work)
England 2 - 1 USA (although I'm rooting for USA )
Argentina 3 - 0 Nigeria (Messi will completely annihilate Nigeria :X)

Gogogo in 5 mins the kickoff between Kor and Greece ^_^

Nice . It was a very exciting game (obviously biased answer from me, but when you compare it to the France vs. Uruguay game...), but I don't think it was necessarily because Korea played very well that gave them the victory, but rather because Greece played a very disappointing game. I think that first fast goal from Korea tilted them too much? I thought Korea's defense wasn't consistent, cracking a bit in the 2nd half (maybe we can learn a thing or two from Uruguay?). Seems we gave away too many corners too. However I thought the teamwork and passion shined for my team . Park Jisung's goal was pretty sick as well.

Extremely tired for staying up to watch the game, but gotta watch the next two, especially England vs. USA .

After today, I could kiss Robert Green. Everyone cheering for the USA owes him a beer.

I feel sorry for him. Still, I thought the USA were worth a draw. They lacked the skill of some the English players, but they brought more athleticism and better organization (well done to the coach). The way they neutralized Rooney and the fullbacks was remarkable, and their centre half had a stunning game. I hear he hasn't played a game since August last year, which is pretty amazing, because his sureness of touch and ability to be in the right place at the right time frustrated the English time and time again.

We've yet to see what Algeria and Slovenia have, but I think USA and England will both be reasonably optimistic of progress to round 2.

Beckham's expression after the goal sums it all up for England:

I think the 1:1 was an acceptable result, maybe USA now gets #1 in the group, meaning the chances of Germany meeting England are very high
Looking forward to the Slovenia game!

And today is the first match of germanys team, hope we will be able to do pull it off ^^

Oh and here are my bets for today:

Algeria vs. Slovenia => 0:1
Serbia vs. Ghana => 2:1 (I'm a little bit afraid of serbia in group D :X)
Germany vs. Australia => 2:0 (well I cant tip something else otherwise my sister who stands right behind me right now would kill me)
