it's my report that's really late. I would blame the spoof-off due to all that reading so i will. Anyway, i will review the last couple of games and how important they are/were.
South Africa (Tom) Vs Denmark (Vamp)
FT 0:0
Spain (Triple_H) Vs Senegal (AgentFrodo)
FT 0:1
I predicted senegal may edge it but hey, they beat the favorites helping denmark through instead. Senegal breezed through the group but that draw was enough from denmark to put them through.
Group A Standings
1 Senegal (AgentFrodo) Played-3 W-3 D-0 L-0 GF-6 GA-3 GD- +3 Points-9 QUALIFIED

Poland (Blank) Vs Ireland (Lindgren)
FT 1:0
Italy (Longy) Vs Tunisia (Lucio)
FT 1:0
Ireland were one of my favorites to go through. So they decide to lose all of their games. Italy went through as anticipated but Tunisia have done well and qualified with them.
Group B Standings
1 Italy (Longy) Played-3 W-3 D-0 L-0 GF-7 GA-2 GD- +5 Points-9 QUALIFIED
2 Tunisia (Lucio) Played-3 W-2 D-0 L-1 GF-3 GA-1 GD- +2 Points-6 QUALIFIED

Sweden (Reynolds) Vs England (Mandatare)
FT 0:0
Uruguay (El Natbuc) Vs Russia (Pro Evo)
FT 0:0
Sweden should be through after having the greater goal difference but due to a mistake by Badgerman, a replay will be played between sewden and russia tomorrow.
England however only needed one of these teams to draw or lose in order to qualifiy so cue a dull set of results. 0-0 in both games win england win the group.
Group C Standings
1 England (Mandatare) Played-3 W-2 D-1 L-0 GF-4 GA-1 GD- +3 Points-7 QUALIFIED
2 Sweden (Reynolds) Played-3 W-1 D-1 L-0 GF-1 GA-0 GD- 0 Points-4 QUALIFIED

Brazil (Spikecast) Vs Saudi Arabia (Figo)
FT 0:1
Mexico (KR) Vs Slovenia (El Juicy)
FT 1:0
Remarkably, Saudi Arabia have won the group. Only by scoring more goals but still. And all this after beating Brazil 1-0 which is a shock within it's self.
Mexico just miss out on first place but still qualified comfortably with a 1-0 win over slovenia.
Group D Standings
1 Saudi Arabia (Figo) Played-3 W-1 D-0 L-1 GF-3 GA-2 GD- 1 Points-6 QUALIFIED

And now for groups to be concluded tonight
Group E Standings

Tonights big games will be France (sdrawkcab) Vs Nigeria (Cid Vilante) and USA (lalakersrule)Vs Ecuador (Aliboy)
Everyone will be looking at as all teams can still qualifiy. Nigeria look as good as through and need a draw for certainty while USA will need to win as well as nigeria to win.
Predictions are Nigeria and Ecuador to go through
Group F Standings
1 Argentina (HelloHowArtThou) Played-2 W-2 D-0 L-0 GF-5 GA-3 GD- +2 Points-6 QUALIFIED
2 Belgium (DW) Played-2 W-1 D-0 L-1 GF-2 GA-2 GD- 0 Points-3
3 Costa Rica (The craziest Col) Played-2 W-0 D-1 L-1 GF-2 GA-3 GD- -1 Points-1
= South Korea (FinalFantasyFanatic) Played-2 W-0 D-1 L-1 GF-1 GA-1 GD- -1 Points-1
Tonight's other games are Belgium (DW) Vs Costa Rica (The craziest Col) and Argentina (HelloHowArtThou) Vs South Korea (FinalFantasyFanatic)
Argentina are already through and have a comfortable game against South Korea. A draw will do for Belgium for qualification unless South korea pull off a BIG shock!
Predictions are Argentina (DUH!) and Belgium.
Group G Standings
1 Croatia (Shadow) Played-2 W-2 D-0 L-0 GF-4 GA-1 GD- +3 Points-6
= Paraguay (GrandPrix & AfroJoe)Played-2 W-1 D-0 L-1 GF-2 GA-2 GD- 0 Points-3
3 Turkey (Unbeliever) Played-2 W-1 D-0 L-1 GF-1 GA-1 GD- 0 Points-3
= Japan (Elf Ears) Played-2 W-0 D-0 L-2 GF-0 GA-3 GD- -3 Points-0
Friday's gamed are Turkey (Unbeliever) Vs Croatia (Shadow) and Japan (Elf Ears) Vs Paraguay (GrandPrix & AfroJoe)
Japan aren't offically out but their rubbish goal difference gives them no chance for hope. Croatia have a big game against Turkey which could decide both teams fates.
Paraguay will have to keep up with turkey's goals if they want to qualifiy, having the same amount of goal difference.
Predictions are Paraguay and Croatia
Group H Standings
1 Cameroon (Sfonæ) Played-2 W-2 D-0 L-0 GF-5 GA-1 GD- +4 Points-6 QUALIFIED
2 Germany (Absolut Neo) Played-2 W-0 D-2 L-0 GF-2 GA-2 GD- 0 Points-2
3 Portugal (Hercules!) Played-2 W-0 D-1 L-1 GF-2 GA-3 GD- -1 Points-1
= China (Microchips) Played-2 W-0 D-1 L-1 GF-2 GA-4 GD- -2 Points-1
The final set of games before the knockout stages are China (Microchips) Vs Portugal (Hercules!) and Cameroon (Sfonæ)Vs Germany (Absolut Neo)
From day 1, I said Cameroon would win the group. Now they have and could do Portugal a favour if they beat germany.
Portugal will rely on Cameroon while hoping they do well enough against china who themselves have a good chance, being 1 point off second place.
Predictions are Cameroon :-) and Portugal
Thank you for reading and good luck to all those involved!
