Unbelievable,
I predicted them as group winner and world champion,
besides that I predicted Zidane to be the top-scorer.

I'm sure they did it just to piss me off #doitnow#

I had them picked as world champions before the tournament.

It seems that France´s got to retire some of the players. IIRC this is France worst result in a WC since 1966...

Yes, but they missed 1990 and 1994 because they didn't qualify .

Even if France where a bit unlucky at times they didn't show enough quality to win the game and thus go futher in the tournament. A team that can't manage a single goal in three games shouldn't be world champions.

The viking hordes strike again! Now we're ready to take on Argentina, England or - and this would be fantastic - Sweden.

Nihihihi. Did anybody predict Jon Dahl as top scorer?

Id prefer England to play Senegal than Denmark, however .. at least were not playing France ... well done Denmark !!!

Now all we need is to say "cheeri-ho" to our German & Italian buddies and Argentina ..

I still think Spain are the team to beat this time round ..

I had Denmark as group winners.

According to the statisticians, Denmark will now win the World Cup.

It was the 5th time that France and Denmark played each other in a World Cup or European Championship since 1984, and the previous 4 times, the team that won the match went on to win the championship (France EC in 1984 and 2000, WC in 1998 - and Denmark EC in 1992). I say let's just keep it this way.

How is it decided who plays who in the final 16? I'm guessing that groups go up against each other, so group A's would play number 2 from which group?

Thanks Viceroy, found a complete list.

Winner Gp D vs. Runner-up Gp G

So if the US goes through will either be playing Italy, Croatia, or Mexico. I'm hoping for Mexico.

Eli is just being racist.

And the whole WC is a joke, no team has played as expected so far. Apart from Saudi Arabia.

Ha ha .. yes, US vs Mexico would certainly catch the imagination .. I wonder if the US press would be as Jingoistic as the UK press .. with articles of past American military victories over Mexico ??

Something tells me not..

of course, England Vs Senegal/Denmark would not generate much Jingoism here .. thankfully ..

Actually, I think Spain has .. and although England didn't against Sweden, they did against Argentina..

Id hardly say 0-8 was Saudi Arabia's usual standard .. not at all ..

Ireland have also out done themselves proud, considering they are without Roy Keane .. nobody expected them to do so well..
