BTW Denmark would have to meet Brazil in the next round. So are you saying Brazil won't win the cup? [ 06-14-2002, 09:32 AM: Message edited by: Donut ]

Well you get your wish Lanthir, a date in the second round with your southern neighbours (courtesy of 2 lots of South Korean woodwork). All the best for the 2nd round. Donut, you mentioned something about the group of life [img]smile.gif[/img] [ 06-14-2002, 10:12 AM: Message edited by: Davros ]

Well, hasn't this been a World Cup for the minnows. [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img]
Portugal deserved to lose that game - their discipline was appalling. That tackle by Joao Pinto was a clear red, right in front of the referee as well. Very rash and with the studs showing. And Beto - the guy had one yellow already and his second tackle also deserved a yellow - when they needed cool heads there were none to be found. They had their chances to draw but Gomes looked to panic when gifted with an open goal and a flatfooted keeper. Conceicao's attempt which missed the bar was a tougher effort but luck was not with them tonight. That Korean goal was a gem. My tipping sheet is an absolute nightmare - only consolation is that everyone else in the office is doing worse!! |

Here's an interesting article on some possible reasons why the Argies and the Frogs crashed out.

Looks like the best strategy memsie is to tip against the white shorts (Aussie Rules analogy) .
