Actually my prediction was:

Brazil 2-1 over Chile

Netherlands 3-0 over Slovakia

 

 

So... the real results are just the opposite:

Brazil 3-0 over Chile

Netherlands 2-1 over Slovakia

 

 

And of course, my natural instincts took over and told me Netherlands are gonna beat Slovakia 4-0. :lol:

 

I slept through this game, when I woke up it's 3-0 with 5 mins to go. I had my doubts about Brazil I guess I wouldn't have anymore.

 

Most importantly, Brazil on one side of the bracket, and... Argentina on the other side!!!! Finals Too Sexy!!

^I will bet my money on anyone betting vs. Argentina not reaching the Finals...

 

 

- Germany has been great but largely due to weak-average opponents like Australia, Ghana and a not-so-cohesive England team that was demoralized by a disallowed goal.

 

Their defense can get frustrated/ impatient when they faced Serbia, Klose got sent off and they couldn't match up with the supposedly inferior Serbia team losing 0-1. In contrast, Switzerland once played with 10 men and still held Honduras to 0 goal.

 

I don't think their defense can hold off Messi, Higuain and Tevez. And they had so much roaming space on offense vs. England... I don't think they will find much vs. Argentina. Without slight to Germany, this should be a pretty easy win for Argentina imo... 3-1.

 

 

- Spain has been great largely due to Villa who's been sensational. But Torres has yet to show up. If Spain has to keep relying on Villa to carry the offense and everyone else chipping in, I don't think they can match up with Argentina who have players capable of scoring. Messi and Milito are still scoreless, but unlike Torres, Messi creates so many opportunities for his teammates... and remains very dangerous. Milito can break his slump any moment...

 

 

Like Barkley said, I may be wrong (about Argentina) but I doubt it. :glasses:

That's essentially you having two chances at beating me with two teams, and me having only one chance at you. You're counting on either Germany or Spain to beat Argentina once to win, I have to count on Argentina beating both to win. Odds are against me.

 

I'll take it if you give me some kind of odds to even it up, say you win $20 from me if Argentina doesn't reach Finals, or I win $30 from you if they do? What dya think? :glasses:

 

 

Or... we can bet two separate games:

- Argentina v Germany

- Argentina v Spain

 

 

Lemme know :)

Dont mean to sound like a cheap [expletive], but how about, I win 15 from you, if I lose I pay you 20$, I kinda cant go under 400 on my bank account :lol:
