what are the odds of a Uruguay to defeat Argentina in the final,in a repeat of the first World Cup final 80 years ago

[BLACK KNIGHT]

Agree with your selections t9rres. Current form indicates URUGUAY, BRAZIL ,ARGENTINA & SPAIN.
Would like to see GERMANY beat Argentina to make it 2 each from the worlds best football continents.
But then again a BRAZIL v ARGENTINA final would be great.

[Outlaw 2.0]

Uruguay vs Ghana - Ghana to upset an over confident Uruguay
Netherlands vs Brazil - Netherlands to turn it on against a shell shocked Brazil
Argentina vs Germany - Germany to butcher a number of chances that Args take at the other end
Paraguay vs Spain - Spain to get over the line with a thumping of Da Silva and co. at the back for Paraguay

*Just Quietly I'm hoping for a Spain vs Netherlands final

yes, that would be great - would definitely have a new nation crowned champions

[Con]

0-0 after extra time Uruguay on penalties,
0-0 a.e.t. Brazil on penalties,
0-0 a.e.t. Argentina on penalties,
0-0 a.e.t. Paraguay on penalties.

then, both semis 0-0, with Argentina and Brazil through on penalties,
then 0-0 in final with Argentina winning on penalties.

You"ll laugh, but @ dreadful Italia'90, three of the 4 quarter-finals and both semis went to penalties.

But just kidding. Hope to see quarters and semis explode with some goals and and then blockbuster Argentina v. Brazil with Messi and Kaka starring....

[ozzie owl]

Brazil, Spain, Argentina and Uruguay.

[Red-4-Life]

Uruguay
Brazil
Argentina (in what should be a cracker)
Spain


South American dominance! Is Paraguay can pull an upset off...4 teams from Sth America in the semis

[Juventino]

You"ll laugh, but @ dreadful Italia'90, three of the 4 quarter-finals and both semis went to penalties.

Quarter finals -

Italy 1-0 Rep. Ireland
Yugoslavia 0-0 Argentina (Argentina wins 3-2 on pens.)
West Germany 1-0 Czechoslovakia
England 3-2 Cameroon

That equals three matches how?

After recently watching the Italy v Argentina semi final I must say it was a decent game. Italy were a good side and Argentina played their best game of the tournament. The final on the other hand, was boring.

Anyway, my predictions are -

Netherlands 1-2 Brazil (after extra time)
Uruguay 1-0 Ghana
Argentina 2-1 Germany
Paraguay 0-2 Spain

[Chade]

Uruguay vs Ghana
Netherlands vs Brazil
Argentina vs Germany
Paraguay vs Spain

Only one shoe-in (Par v Spain - as it should be at the quarter-final stage!), 1 and 3 are going to be high scoring due to their crap defence and Netherlands v Brazil will be either a 1-0 to Brazil or a 4-1 blow-out.

[Chelsea4thewin]

Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay and Argentina

all south american baby

[Ollo Ollo]

Uruguay vs Ghana
Netherlands vs Brazil - Brazil in extra time. This game will be a cracker
Argentina vs Germany - German manchine will be too strong for the very open Argentina defence
Paraguay vs Spain

[Madridista612]

Uruguay vs Ghana
Netherlands vs Brazil - Brazil in extra time. This game will be a cracker
Argentina vs Germany - German manchine will be too strong for the very open Argentina defence
Paraguay vs Spain

Agree with this, except I would say Brazil doing it fairly easily, maybe 2-0, although given how this world cup has been you'll probably be right

Germany to send Argentina packing I hope.

[povman_2009]

Uruguay vs Ghana
Netherlands vs Brazil
Argentina vs Germany
Paraguay vs Spain

All the South American Teams to win and show the world where the strength Lies .... (although Paraguay may have some trouble with Spain)

Does anyone else notice that Spain looks and plays like Barca without Messi to put the ball in the net...

[Ocean Rain]

*Just Quietly I'm hoping for a Spain vs Netherlands final

If both make it it will be Netherlands v Spain.

age is but a number,do not get 80 years experience mixed up, with 1 years experience repeated 80 times,my son.

[vertu1]

Netherlands 1-3 Brazil
the Dutch don't really believe

Uruguay 0-0 Ghana
penalties lottery

Argentina 0-1 Germany
love the way Germany go about it, not scared to talk themselves up..
most teams are beaten before they start against the Argies and Brazil, not Germany though
Messi and co wont have the freedom that they get in the no tackle leagues they normally play in

Paraguay 0-4 Spain
cakewalk

[Steelinho]

Brazil 1-0 Netherlands

Uruguay 3-1 Ghana

Argentina 1-2 Germany

[BADA BING]

[themagnet]

Ghana
Netherlands
Germany
Paraguay

After your horror round of 16 form, you're off to a good start

[Ronnie]

im in a tipping comp, and already got the dutch with and exact tip of 2-1
tipped uruguay 2-1 also
tipped spain 3-0
but really not sure about the other game, depends what team shows up for both sides.
if the germany who beat australia and england turn up then they are class, the germany who played serbia and ghana was ordinary.
argentina have been playing well, but look like they could implode any game.
so i hope they both turn up and will go 2-2 and a penalty shoot out, and ze germans never lose on penalties

[povman_2009]

So much for the power of South American football, they left me wondering wtf ....
