Re: FIFA WC Tipping comp

By the way, great competition, thanks for running it

Could North Korea beat Portugal or the Ivory Coast? Probably not. But just imagine if they met South Korea in a knock-out match.

Anyway, predicted two draws and for Spain to spank Switzerland today.

I know I diverge a little so apologies Wybern..BUT when I lived/on holidays in Zurich, I used to go for the Zurich Grasshoppers. They are the most successful club team in Switserland, making it to the UEFA cup semi finals in one year and to a quarter final appearance in another. The chant goes like "ziggy hei, ziggy hei, ziggy, hei hei hei" It's what people chant at the game....

The Chile Honduras game has been pretty decent so far.

Re: FIFA WC Tipping comp

If Chile don't get that second goal I'm going to break something. They look a very good side though.

My picks:

Argentina v South Korea 3-1
France v Mexico 1-1
Greece v Nigeria 0-2

England v Algeria 3-0
Germany v Serbia 2-1
Slovenia v USA 1-2
