World Cup Thread Day 11
Since a thread has not been created yet...
France v. South Africa
Mexico v. Uruguay
Argentina v. Greece
Nigeria v. South Korea
All should be pretty good matches. France is getting handles by the South Africans, and the pro-schadenfreudist in me wants nothing more than to see France burn.
South Africa would have had the homefield advantage, though. Funny things can happen when good teams go on the road.
And [knock on wood] if the US can finish 1st in their group, they would face the Uruguay - Korea winner in a potential quarterfinal. Long way to look ahead, but that's about the best draw possible for the US in the quarters...
And would likely face Ghana or Serbia and avoid Germany in the R16 game
I'm hoping Marquez continues to get way out of position chasing Messi and we get a route. Hopefully Mexico lets Vela and Dos Santos go at Argentina and we don't have to see Franco and Blanco out there.
파이팅!
