World Cup post

It's kinda weird if I never make a post on this World Cup. Afterall it's the hottest event on the globe now. After 48 matches played, the heat is getting hotter. Today we will be getting into the 2nd round. So fast isn't it?
After the 1st round, we can sketchly know who is the favourite. For me, Argentina looks good enough. Spain were also convincing but they will have France in their way. Brazil looks shaky always, but still strong. Other convincing teams are Italy and Switzeland. And of course, the Germans, playing well in front of home crowd. I personally supporting Holland but so far they have not been convincing but I'm looking forward to their battle with Portugal, a rematch of euro2004 semis. Though 3 matches played, teams may be trying to conceal their true ability. So keep your finger crossed.
To those who have been knockout, I really feel sorry for the Czechs but they did not produce the flair they used to have. I guess that is the only favourite team that got knockout. The final 16 is generally quite predictable. I'm too happy with the lost of the Koreans, because I really hate them for their FAKE performance last edition.
until now, I still fail to recover my earlier losses in my betting, haha, but I know my luck will grow better now.

The matches

Germany v Sweden: I think the germans shud sneak in eventhough the swedes are strong.
Argentina v Mexico : If the Argentines produce the performance during the S & M game, no problem
England v Ecuador : Ecuador can't stand the pace.
Portugal v Netherlands : huge match.
Italy v Australia : Guus hiddink can't be so lucky.
Switzerland v Ukraine
Brazil v Ghana
Spain v France : Looking forward to this
