World Cup 2006

<p>ya, at least korea has beat a legit team...togo hasnt</p>

<p>Korea wont be able to beat togo if they play like how they played vsing ghana.</p>

<p>I'm suspecting 1. France 2. Swiss 3. Korea 4. Togo
It'll be close-ish between swiss and korea.</p>

<p>I'm also rooting for brazil (to win wc) because they're entertaining and awesome. And I'll be supporting the netherlands and the czechs and sweden and portugal too.</p>

<p>Korea will be in the Round of 16... if they dont well i will start a riot in Seoul!!</p>

<p>I waited 4 years and they better not disapoint me !!</p>

<p>they wont make it to the round of sixteen...to me most of the groups are predictable-ish. Except for the two 'groups of death' for which seem wide open.</p>

<p>which group's matches do u think will be most interesting to watch?</p>

<p>^ I say:
England vs Sweden
All group C matches :P
Mexico vs Portugal
Italy vs Czech Rep.
Spain vs Ukraine</p>

USA is gonna surprise some people...I hope. They lost to Morocco the other day, which annoyed me a lot. At least we beat Angola today. We have to beat Italy and Ghana.

<p>Hahaha the US would be really lucky to make it past the first round.. They arent upto the level of most of the other teams yet... Give them enough time, and theyll import the right players.. No chance right now..</p>

<p>if the US were to win the WC, it would just undermine the meaning of the cup for years to come....in my opinion. Its like a cadillac compared to european cars...the cadillac may be able to outperform some..but it just feels 'cheap.'</p>

<p>KOREANS are OBSESSED with worldcup.</p>

<p>lyk every single commercial has the korean cheer rythm to it, and these days even car commericials and rice commericials involve someone cheering for korea or someone kicking a soccer ball.</p>

<p>why is it that rankings are wrong? i mean the US is ranked 5th-6th in the world, but you guys are saying they would be lucky to make it past the 1st round!?</p>

<p>FIFA hasnt switched to computer rankings yet. The FIFA rankings are severly flawed.</p>

<p>What the hell?</p>

<p>theripcurl, Holland, Mexico, Spain and the Czech Republic are all ranked among the top 4 or 5 teams in the World at the moment, but none of them are quite as good as their rankings suggest.</p>
