Kid Dynamite 6961 Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Lets hope France produce an upset tomorrow. I reckon we can beat france in the semis and a final against germany or italy is one of the better ones we could have hoped for. If England and France both win tomorrow il be a very happy man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ally 0 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Brazil are there for the taking, they're just lucky they haven't come across any top teams yet. Croatia had a few good chances against them, I missed the Oz game but Japan threatened, and again if Ghana had someone like Rooney upfront they'd have scored a couple. Great going forward but that defence is gash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodgate27 0 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Croatia had a few good chances against them, I missed the Oz game but Japan threatened, 155253[/snapback] We were unlucky to lose 2-0, dominated for prolonged periods but didn't have enough up front to worry them, although Kewell missed a sitter. Defence is their achilles but it's still fairly good. It would take something very special to beat them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Manson 0 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Henry unmarked. 1-0 Come on Brazil, the first thing I said after the England defeat was "Looks like I'm supporting Brazil now I guess." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44020 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 I'm not a big fan of France, but it would be a fucking brilliant story if Zidane finished the last game of his career by lifting the World Cup. Especially after a mystery ghost told him to make a comeback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo 172 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Thoroughly deserved win for France, Brazil, like England, too many "top" players left their A-Game at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
