Could be correct.

It looks like my only group I have a chance at 100% is:

Costa Rica
Uruguay
Italy
England

EDIT: of groups who have played 2/3 games.

I was all happy at the beginning of yesterday, getting four points from the first game and looking to get 4 more in the second, too (had Uruguay-England tying 1-1). And then Uruguay scored a late goal to win it, I also lost the night game and lost the early game today.

That turn of events could have gone better.

I didn't realize you could change the scores right up until before the game.

I just ran through them the first day and haven't really been keeping up.

I don't think the pick me I am in had to predict scores or 1st round games, just order of finish. On that note, I'm not doing great with actual finishes, but am on the right track on most of then for the 2 teams advancing.


Teams I have:
Brazil
Croatia

Netherlands
Spain (wrong)

Columbia
Ivory Coast or Greece, can't recall lol

Costa Rica
Uruguay

Ecuador
Swiss (looking terrible)

No one else has played a second match to have a good grasp. Stunned by how well France looks without Ribery. I dropped them from 2nd in group to 3rd when I heard he was out. Looks like they are just gonna bury everyone else. Obviously Spain is a stunner, But all the others are pretty much what I expected.

3-0 before HT. I thought the Swiss were a good defensive team?

It was me. Ended up having Chile being taken before my third pick so took Bosnia over Costa Rica hoping they would fall back which they didn't, so took South Korea. Really hoping Bosnia and South Korea each get a win in their next games as Belgium and Colombia have both been good so far.

What an ass kicking. Whoever wins tonight between Honduras and Ecuador will be right in it to advance because of Switzerland's piss-poor goal differential.

Maybe ytown, since she was in early, but I don't see her name now. Although if it is her, she did a hell of a worst-to-first thing, because I thought she was at the back of the standings just a few days back.

That's what Iran has to do and it is stopping Argentina. This draw and a win in 3rd game probably puts Iran through....

Well it took 91 minutes, but Argentina looks like they'll actually get their 3 points
