June 17, 200620 yr Author to be honest...i really don't know :stunned: after today's CZE - GHA i was sure Ghana will make it, but after i saw USA...and they were great, so...phhh. no comments by me atm, i really don't know
June 17, 200620 yr ^I'm not sure either, the USA were really impressivetoday, especially considering they were playing with nine men (and Italy with ten). But I think the Czech Republic will beat Italy...
June 17, 200620 yr I think Czech rep. won't make it... they're in a really bad situation, so the 2nd will come out from the USA- Ghana match...
June 17, 200620 yr Author they're in a really bad situation agree Czechs lost 3 forwards before their last match :o i think this fact might play the key role, but still...i think they can make it, because Italy are not really impressive for me
June 17, 200620 yr I think Czech rep. won't make it... they're in a really bad situation' date=' so the 2nd will come out from the USA- Ghana match...[/quote'] It's all very complicated... Considering the Czech Republic beat Italy, they have 6 points. If Ghana win, they have 6 as well. If the USA win, the USA have 4 points, Ghana 3. If they draw Ghana have 4, the USA 2. If the Czechs win, they are through.
June 17, 200620 yr Author What about if both matches draw... then Czech Rep and Ghana will deefine' date=' right?[/quote'] if both matches draw, the situation won't change. take a look at the table in my first post. ITA and CZE through them
June 17, 200620 yr agree Czechs lost 3 forwards before their last match :o i think this fact might play the key role, but still...i think they can make it, because Italy are not really impressive for me I totally agree with you, but somehow I have the feeling Italy won't make it.
June 17, 200620 yr Author I totally agree with you' date=' but somehow I have the feeling Italy won't make it.[/quote'] well...if we consider that a draw is enough for them...they can play their typical italian football and get the result...let's say 0-0 maybe...:rolleyes: that would be typical for them ;) but i hope it won't happen and we'll see attacking football from Italy
June 17, 200620 yr I'm convinced Ghana will be too strong for USA, and Italy will lose to the Czechs The ultimate group of death, Italy will go out and will rue their result tonight 1-1 v USA
June 17, 200620 yr well...if we consider that a draw is enough for them...they can play their typical italian football and get the result...let's say 0-0 maybe...:rolleyes: that would be typical for them ;) I know... I also know that they have the better chance to go through than the Czechs. But it could also happen that play like that and the Czechs finally manage to score anyway. There's not much time left, Italy don't score and they blame it on anyone but themselves. That's my prediction. I must admit that I'd prefer the Czechs to go trough, but we'll just see. ;)
June 17, 200620 yr I really have no idea. I think that Italy will def go through. When I saw the first two matches for this group I thought it'll definitely be Italy and Czech Rep, but after today's games I really have no clue. Ghana seem pretty strong and the US too
June 18, 200620 yr I hoped Ghana isn't so strong....or...I don't understand...our team played very terrible. What happened to them? I know we lost 3 forwards, but the team should go on... :\ anyway, I'm for italy and Czech Republic ( I STILL HOPE!!!!)
June 18, 200620 yr Even though I would love italy to go out, I reckon it will be Ghana and Italy that survive....
June 18, 200620 yr well...if we consider that a draw is enough for them...they can play their typical italian football and get the result...let's say 0-0 maybe...:rolleyes: that would be typical for them ;) Hello prejudice :P By the way if we draw and Ghana wins we're still in but I really hope they won't play for a draw, well I'm sure they won't otherwise we will meet Brasil as second in this group, not a good idea :lol: but I think Ghana can really make it against the US considering they can play really fast and the US lost two players with the red cards ;) but I'm not sure of anything right now :laugh4:
