[GILSAN]

Yes Gil, i pass Turkey over 2.5goals and I escape match between Portugal-Swiss thanks to u, becouse i wanted to bet on Portugal...i added rep to u cos of that

Great!

As for today's games I think Croatia will play a reserve team which should give Poland a good advantage to win.

Germany-Austria. Could we be seeing another surprise? Since I allways root for the underdogs I will give Austria a surprise win.

Whats your prediction for today's games?

I like the underdogs too, but Germany will play seriously. And Austria unfortunately does not have a brilliant team.

Poland might win against Croatia, though there is 1 million euro for every victory in play.

In America, we watch something so called FOOTBALL :D
Yesterday, in ESPN this word FOOTBALL is used by commentators to talk about soccer: "Lovely football"

BTW, breaking news: (Due to Euro 2008, we may not know)
Today, in WC 2010 qualification, Brazil was beaten by Paraguay and Argentina scored 1 goal in 90+3th min to get a tie game.

Paraguay 2 - 0 Brazil
Argentina 1 - 1 Ecuador

and

USA 8-0 Barbados : here we go, USA can play soccer :lol:

Barely ever heard of Barbados. I wonder what the score would have been if a European country played against them. 15-0?

Anyway, ye, surprising that paraguay beat brazil.

 

[mrmacc]

yes, i think too that there is no doubt that Germany will lose, Germany always play good

in dificult moment, my opinion is that Germany will win with 2 or 3 goals diference...

About other match Croatia- Poland,, its hard to predict...

Anyway, ye, surprising that paraguay beat brazil.

alex, thats not so surprising, Paraguay is very good team, they r on the top of the group table with 13pts, 2nd Argentina 10pts and 4th Brasil 8pts...
and Adriano play central forword :lol:

Italy and France are putting a lot of pressure on Van Basten to beat Romania. He will be crucfied by the Italians and French if he puts a reserve team (which is understandable) and loses against Romania, who have proved to be an excellent team.

Italy Will Qualify If…

Tomorrow is set to be a nail-bitting, thrilling and stressfull 2 hours for the 3 teams. The Dutch will continue partying.

Difficult to predict!

Yes, but who are the Holland subs? Robben, Boulachrouz, Huntelaar, Van Persie and Van der Vaart?

Thank you, but I want instead the first team that is tired and less motivated than these subs who will want to show they should play in the first team from now on.

However in the preliminaries Romania and Holland made 0-0 and 1-0, so anything is possible again. Romania will be super motivated to win I hope.

But they will miss very much Goian in the defense (who is one of the best defenders) and Radoi in the middlefield. Radoi was the invisible man who worked very much, and the team will miss him. He is a player that gives 120% every match, every minute.

Niculae will not play in the attack I think as he is very tired, I hope Marica or the other Niculae (Marius) will do a great job tomorrow as Romania needs to score in order to win.

With subs like that, who needs a first team!

This group has ended. Croatia and Germany will go advanced no matter whatever they do from now :D I don't see any chance for Austria and Poland. Poland is really weak, Croatia should have scored more.

You're 99% correct, but don't forget Turkey's great comeback that started at about this time yesterday!
