That's a pretty good group for England considering what it could have been.
Mexico will not be pleased with drawing Portugal.
If the US perform anything like last time they can be reasonably optimistic of progressing.

If you can correctly predict the last 16 I'll show my @rse in Trafalgar square!!! 😲

In a one-off game, ANYTHING can happen.
Originally posted by sasquatch672This may be a plan for around the time of the tournament. I did something like that in school, you predict scores and stuff for each game, and you get points for the accuracy. Might be interesting, see who scores the most...
Well, I'll hold you to it. Here's my go:

Brazil
Croatia
France
South Korea

Italia were knocked out by *COUGH COUGH COUGH COUGH* South Korea (!) in the second round. To say that Italy have the best defense in the world is absolute nonsense.
I wonder why,he did so well in that game..........
