FIFA World Cup 2014

Pretty weird, I just read that (as we know) Klose scored his 15th against Ghana in Brazil, but Ronaldo scored his 15th, against Ghana, in Germany.
With the Germany-Ghana draw, an outright win by the USA tomorrow means they'll be onto the knockout rounds. Far easier said than done of course, Portugal may be wounded but I would never count them out.
That's more impressive than any psychic clam, turtle, chicken, octopus, koala, penguin, possum, blue whale, t rex, or any other animal they keep reporting about. Lol
Thanks to the BBC commentator, I now know, without any shadow of a doubt, that Dzeko's first name is Edin...Every time he touches the ball.....must be a Sitteh supporter.
Germany and Ghana draw. I wonder how Team USA will do tomorrow. Not that I care. Or anything like that.
Not impressed by what I saw against Ghana. Where was the discipline, the efficiency, the stubbornness?
I think I'll have to talk to Jogi Löw, can't play like that against de yankees next week.

backed Chile , Ivory Coast, Nigeria and Russia to make Rof16. Bit of luck might get all 4.
Ghana I may miss out on, and somewhat biased I feel they should have won v Germany
the last 5v2 play was atrocious.
very much enjoying this World Cup. Probably as good at group stage as 1982 was.

Bit meh so far.
Belgium would be such a team if they had proper full backs, I wonder is it limiting their approach, and forward movement.

Foal, sorry, meant to say I had your scores in.
For this round I seem to be missing Jrthe bass guy - come on man get them in you were top in the last round!!
Matante, Revolver and Mark are also missing and we have Mohawk in for this one...anyone who is missing you can still get them in you will only miss out on games which are in play (and where there has been a score since we did that earlier) or if the game has been completed.
I'll post an updated table for the end of Round 3 after tonight's matches-sorry lads, been a busy weekend!!
BTW - The Germany Ghana Game was a real upset -only 1 person got 3 points from that and that was only as a result of predicting that Ghana would be beaten 4-2!

Lukaku looks like a Sunday League amateur.
I think they'll get through, but they are certainly underachieving at the moment.
Martin, I put in my predictions for this round in post #1096 (quoted above). That goes to match 48. Are we already on to the next round? I didn't see you post a new schedule after that.
