Interesting. This has been THE most unpredictable World Cup ever. Brings up the following possible matchups:

Quarterfinals
England vs. Brazil/Belgium
Germany vs. USA

Spain vs. Korea/Italy
Senegal vs. Japan/Turkey

Semifinals
Germany/USA vs. Spain/Korea/Italy

England/Brazil/Belgium vs. Senegal/Japan/Turkey

Finals
Germany/USA/Spain/Korea/Italy vs. England/Brazil/Belgium/Senegal/Japan/Turkey

It's wide open.

Was there something in the title of the thread that made you think it was something different? there are many members of IW who don't like sports. They don't feel the need to open these threads.
