We are less than 2 weeks away from the biggest sport event in the world.
What are your thoughts, predictions and who are your favorites?
Im going to tip either Spain or France on this one. I doubt Brazil will be winning this year.
They have been disapointing and I honestly belive reiging champs Italy will flop.
Germany is a typical tournament team, and is a force to reckon with. People say that England has a strong team this year but they always say that. So I doubt they will be going far. Quarter finals maybe.

I would say USA is a underdog. But they do know how to play good football. They beat Spain 2-0 last year, and as far as I know Spain was ranked nr1 that time. I say USA has a fair chance to win its group, but they need to play 100%. England is by far their toughest obsticle in the groupstages. Im certin they will move on to the knockout stages. Maybe not as group winners but they will adcance thats for sure. If they win their group and get lucky with brackets in the knockout stages. Who knows how far they will go. Top 10 maybe.

Well looks like England captain Rio Ferdinand could be out of World Cup. After suffering a knee injury.
Didier Drogba from the ivorycoast broke his elbow, so one of the best players in the world could be out.

Lets hope they both get better. And are ready for the World Cup.

South Africa won 1-0 over Denmark. So thats 13 victories in a row for the hostnation.
Netherlands top winger Arjen Robben was in injured in a friendly match against Hungary. Sad news alot of good players have been injured. BTW the Oranje won 6-1. Good shit Netherland.
 
so watching espn i heard the funniest commercial for the world cup, "...and june 12th the most anticipated match of the world cup, england vs usa..." haha my brother and i were like wtf, if anything when you think world wide no one cares for US soccer, other than the US. the most anticipated match in my mind would be portugal vs brazil, #1 ranked team vs #3 ranked team if im not mistaken

South Africa vs Mexico match is just over.
It ended 1-1 South Africa had a huge chance to end the game at the 89th min or so. But hit the post. So close so close.

Next match is Uruguay vs France. Im sure France will win that match.

Updated Group A standings.
