LOL that's the first time I saw a player who isn't even in the game get a yellow card. What a douchebag though, kicking the ball away to waste time.

What game was that I must have missed it
Russia Defeated by the Algerians meaning that the spots are settled for this bracket

Yeah Russia is out, Algeria and Belgium advance.

In the game Algeria kicked the ball down the field and it went out of play and a player from the Algerian bench kicked it away so the Russian player couldn't immediately throw it back in. He got a yellow for it.

Pathetic performance from Russia. It's not just Capello that's to blame, the players wasted SO MANY chances in all 3 games. Chances where any other team would already score 5 goals, but Russian players always fail. Always kicking the ball too high, or too far to the left or the right, or directly at the goalkeeper, or just making dumb passes when you should be shooting on goal. We had arguably the easiest group too - Korea and Algeria were never strong football teams, and Belgium is only decent but nowhere near the top tier Euro teams. Absolutely pathetic to not even win a single match.

Congrats to Algeria, first time they got out of group stage.

Algeria goal for the tie this game gets interesting match now as the picture changes yet again.
Russia might make the next goal or Algeria still a good 30 minutes left in this match
https://www.google.ca/?gws_rd=ssl#q=algeria+standings

Algeria needs a tie/win
Russia needs a win to advance

Although I just noticed that Korea Republic and Belgium are playing so there is a wildcard here if Korea beats Belgium and this game ends a tie
They would need more goals though to make a difference.
But as Russians playing I think they are not going in next round they are going back home from here directly

So in the PQF stage, these are the confirmed matches so far:

1. Brazil vs Chile
2. Colombia vs Uruguay
3. Netherlands vs Mexico
4. Costa Rica vs Greece
5. France vs Nigeria
6. Germany vs Runner-up Group H (Algeria?)
7. Argentina vs Switzerland
8. Winner Group H (Belgium) vs United States


Can we start the predictions?  Grin

Toughest match: Colombia v Uruguay
Weakest match: Costa Rica vs Greece

yeah, sure we can

but it's going to be useless since this WC proved itself to be completely unpredictable Cheesy

But I would say

1. Brazil vs Chile
2. Colombia vs Uruguay
3. Netherlands vs Mexico
4. Costa Rica vs Greece
5. France vs Nigeria
6. Germany vs Runner-up Group H (Algeria?)
7. Argentina vs Switzerland
8. Winner Group H (Belgium) vs United States

EDIT:

If Colombia won this prediction would be funny Cheesy

I'll try going a bit further

Uruguay-Brazil
France-Germany
Netherlands-Costa Rica (that's a tough one but I'll go with N..)
Argentina- Belgium?


Semi-finals
Brazil-France
Netherlands-Argentina (fucking sheeeit, can't decide Cheesy)

Finals

France - Netherlands/Argentina

Well we are almost at the half
Looks like Russia will maintain its 1-0 lead against Algeria for now
Wonder how this will turn out though still a close enough game.
I think Russia is going to do one more goal and will go to second round with confidence against Germany from where they need to catch flight for Russia  Grin

I missed the USA vs Germany game today Sad.   I really wanted to see it, but was having some demolition done at my house...

Glad they made it through to the next round...I gave them no chance of making it...

You didn't miss much in my opinion. I'm not sure which one of these two is your favorite, but none of them played their best game I think.. Probably because Germany knew their were going to the next round anyway (and by that, placed other players in the first 11).

I hope I can see the second round of Algeria - Russia, I'm still busy now.  

So in the PQF stage, these are the confirmed matches so far:

3. Netherlands vs Mexico


As i'm from the Netherlands, I think we're going to win this one Wink.  Before the WC I did predict that the Netherlands weren't going further than the 1/8 finales, but now I see them playing again Spain, I've got a little hope that we can reach the 1/2 finales too. It would be great to meet Belgium at the 1/4 finales Smiley

I'm from the USA, so I was just watching USA.   I don't  know all that much about soccer, and I know that US soccer is like little league compared to around the world, but since it is the World Cup, I still like it Smiley

Russia playing really boring style. I know why English fans hate Capello now.
Hope after this world cup Capello will retire from Coaching and we have some new force of Coaches like Mourinho

I think the best/toughest match will be Brazil vs Chile. I reckon Columbia will comfortably beat Uruguay with Suarez missing. I just want the final 16 to be over to see what teams are playing each other in the quarter finals. That's when the wheat is really sorted from the chaff  Cheesy.

Portugal has won 2-1 where USA lost 0-1. Now did Portugal qualify for the next round or it is USA ?

Germany and USA went through. Portugal went out on goal difference.

Had the USA not qualified for the last 16 then Klinsmann would have been massively pissed given that they were on the verge of beating Portugal in their previous game. He should still be pissed that they didn't win the group - they did really well.
