I think itll be South Africa and Mexico.
Mexico will lose to SA in first game, because its the first game, and mexicans always fail against africans (see CWC)
Mexico will beat France because france sucks.
South Africa will beat France because france sucks
Uruguay will tie every one.

No gracias, ya sabemos como le va a Bielsa en los mundiales
Okay okay, Mago Valdivia for Messi and we're equal, okay? :lol
(Besides, Bielsa is on fire man, screw you. You know, I take that back. I'm also gay for Ted :lol )

Well fuck. We're not gonna beat Germany, so best we can hope for is second.
We can beat Ghana and Serbia, but it won't be pretty...
Screw this group.

Poor Ivory Coast, got fucked 2006 and yet again. I hope they go through, just to see Brazil or Portugal fail.
German group is okay, could have been easier, though. Ghana is pretty good as are Australia and Serbia...

So England get Serbia in the last 16, France in the quarters, then Brazil in the semis, Spain in the final. No problem
yeah, the only real question mark for me is whether they could shock england or at least get a draw to avoid germany in the next round. even more unlikely in the first match but hey you have to face good teams out of the group stage regardless. just a historic day for us soccer all around.mYm|17| said:

Nothing would make me happier than to see Portugal knocked out in the first round just to see more of Ronaldo's salty tears, this time in high definition!Milchmonster said:

All their players are second-rate and they've put in plenty of clownish performances in major competition but they can always be a surprise package, you just never know.immy said:
Having said that, I don't understand why the US commentators are relishing the fact England are in their group. It betrays either a basic understanding of football, or unwarranted arrogance, or both

Sorry, just had to add my LOLZ to this one. Only Australians are capable of this level of blinkered hubris. :lol :lol :lol :lol :lolBowieZ said:

Group D is hard. 2nd place is up for grabs at the drop of a hat. Whoever wins in the Serbia v Ghana match will have a huge foot in the door, but if Australia grunt it out and hold Germany to a draw then we're in for some fireworks.
On the ESPN gamecast thing or whatever online all their soccer writers and some US players were like OH SHIT WORST POSSIBLE DRAW FOR US. Then the next teams got slotted and they were much, much happier. At least on there there was a lot of respect for England. I'm guessing on TV they will play it up a lot more to get people interested in the match.immy said:

I think we want one interesting game, but also a group that we can get out of. That's at least what I was hoping for, and thankfully, got it.
Plus, if we pull the upset, we get to start each conversation with, "So, did we beat you in the world cup? Wasn't able to see it myself." etc. etc. etc.
