Sly, Croatia are out will be either Costa Rica or Greece.

To qualify for the next round :-

Brazil X Germany X Argentina X Netherlands = 16/10

Sticking with my semi finalists.

The round robin's are complete for all teams so lets have a look at some statistics from www.fifa.com/worldcup/statistics/index.html

Most goals for a team: Netherlands with 10

Best attacking side: France with 62 shots

Most passes for a side: Germany with 1792

Best defence: Iran!! with 92 (that includes tackles, saves and blocks)

No accolades for a South American side!!


Top scorer: Mueller of Germany with 4 goals from 7 shots

Top runner: Bradley of USA with 38km!

Player with most successful passes: Mascherano of Argentina with 89%

Highest rated goalkeeeper: Enyeama of Nigeria with a Castrol index of 9.35

What is the ‘Castrol MAGNATEC STOP-START Index’ – How does it work?

The ‘Castrol MAGNATEC STOP-START Index’ is a tool developed by Castrol with Sat-Nav leader TomTom that you and your customers can use to highlight their need for new Castrol MAGNATEC STOP-START – by using live tracking GPS data to track the amount of stop-starts normal drivers make in 25 markets a total of 50 cities and regions across the world.

I am more confused than normal. what this got to do with goal keeping?

Here we go quarter finals X(

Thought brazil fans booing while chile playing national anthem was in poor taste (td)

Colombia - Uruguay match...I hope they show the Colombian ladies in the stands...

Kick-off in first knockout match...Brazil to scrape by...with a home-town decision...
