Well my group A predictions are serious. Group B is of course very wishful thinking (though even more wishful thinking would be Spain somehow getting eliminated as well...).

You can switch teams?  Something's wrong with that.

I say every country should have 1 team, and if you're a dependency like French Polynesia, you play on and root for France.

You can switch youth teams (like you can play for the France under-21s and then the Tahiti Senior team) but you can't switch between the actual teams.

Most of the time when that happens, they play for a better country's youth team and then when it's clear that they won't get in that country's senior team they pick their second country, which is understandable. You see it a lot with the German youth teams, where a lot of players then go on to play for Turkey or America or Iran or whatever. Lots of African immigrants in France too who grow up in France, play with their youth teams, but aren't good enough for the French team so they play for Senegal or something.

Spain-Uruguay in half an hour or so should be good.

Japan have been dominating Italy the whole game so far. Italy may have under-estimated them.

Japan can't defend corners apparently.

Italy took a 3-2 lead with an own goal and a penalty in the space of two minutes, and now Japan has leveled again, 3-3! What a great game.

TODAY WE ARE ALL TAHITIANS

Let's hope the forces of good triumph over the forces of evil.

Spain continues to be disgusting. Hopefully Brazil destroys them in the final.

I support Phil.

Every time a Spanish player makes a horizontal pass to the guy a few feet away from him, football dies a little bit more.

Ugh, hopefully Italy stops the bad guys tomorrow. Brazil won't stand a chance against the Spaniards.

And Italy would have won if Balotelli weren't injured. They were the better team, but couldn't put their chances away.

Yeah, but 2013 Balotelli is a lot better than 2012 Balotelli.
