Placed two small wagers today for an interest:

Crespo top scorer, the man's world class

and

The Argies to win outright, along with the Fed Express to win Men's singles at SW19

Saw enough of Argentina at last year's world cup to be impressed

Last night's game was some thriller. Uruguay really pull out all the stops in the Copa, but for all their history, can't seem to get it together on the World stage. Here's hoping Argentina do the business tonight, could make a great final.

Aregentina were a joy to watch against Peru. In my opinion there is no classier midfield player in the world than Riquelme, he just oozes class, and scored 2 more goals against Peru. Also good to see Tevez looking lively.

Anyone have details of the remaining fixtures?

Argentina play Mexico in the second semi final tonight - winner plays Brazil on sunday

Put your money on Argies

I backed Mexico a week ago at 8 / 1 - they're sure to coup!

Mexico have been very impressive so far and will give the Argies a game. Excellent tournament so far, hopefully the Brazil v Argentina final is realised tonight.

Brazil beat Urauguy on penalties. Uraguay will feel sick, they dominated the 2nd half and had a great chance to win the shootout, but they hit the post on the vital kick. Mexico playing the Argies as i speak. Hoping for the top 2 pairing in the final.
