Title: World Cup Tips competition - Last 16 (part 1)
Post by: dec on June 23, 2010, 09:36:08 PM
The full lineup for the 2nd round won't be known until Friday evening and the first game starts on Saturday so there wouldn't be much time to get the tips in so I'll split it in two. First four games in this thread (deadline will be when the first game kicks off on Saturday) and the other four in a thread I'll put up on Friday (deadline will be the first game on Monday)

The prediction is for the end of normal time, extra time and penalties don't count.

Two points for each correct prediction.

Format stays the same username then winner or 'Draw'(meaning you think they will go to extra time)

eg.
dec,Uruguay,Draw,Draw,Argentina

Saturday, 26 June 2010
Uruguay v South Korea, 16R, 15:00
USA v Ghana, 16R, 19:30
Sunday, 27 June 2010
Germany v England, 16R, 15:00
Argentina v Mexico, 16R, 19:30

Jaysus, I'm still the only man to take the south koreans and only about 2/3 of ye have went for the draw in that game.  Once the yellow peril come through I'll have stretched my lead even further (followed by evil laughter).
