And the winner is...
Brazil, unfortunately. They're owned by Nike though, so what did you expect?

I've got a little money on Sweeden (lucky dip sweepstakes), rooting for England.

Best final game, though, would be USA vs Iran. That'd get some people stirred :P
The end is nigh!

I'm hoping the trend of less prominent teams reaching the semi-finals will continue, but who will it be?

Yet remember England, in the immortal words of John Cleese- when Germany comes to town or you visit them...

Don't mention the war!

Currently the US is getting hammered by the Czechs, it's now half time and alread it's 2-0 for the Czech Republic.

Well, so much for that. The U.S. got beat like a red-headed stepchild. I think someone forgot to tell them the Czechs are pretty good.

I can see the newspapers now: "U.S. bounced by Czechs." :P

YEAH! Germany won against Poland with 1 : 0!

I watched the game in the lecture hall of my university with 400 other students. The atmosphere was like in a stadium. The goal jubilations after the goal in the 90th minute was ear-battering.

Oh, and I've got a ticket for Australia vs. Croatia. I am not sure yet which team I should support. Maybe Australia.

Heh. They waited until literally the last minute. Oh well, doesn't matter. 3 points is 3 points, as they say. :D

I'm curious as to who stands where in what for standings, games played, and whatnot. Us Yanks [To use the term loosely to refer to Americans as a whole] are hard pressed to find soccer updates here, which only gets a brief mention in the sports section [if that].
