I think group C is a tough one..... Serbia-montenegro was first in its UEFA group....

We got an easy group (Mexico plays against Portugal, Iran and Angola) but the ones from group D go against the ones from group C, so it is going to be a tough hurdle.

The USA has a tough group, and the ones from group E go against group F, so they have to qualify as first to avoid Brazil..... not a nice picture.

The ones who got a free ride to quaterfinals are the Spaniards, the weakest group, and the ones from group G are not very strong.....

haha, korea is gonna win.

That's funny too because S. Korea and Swiss had a exhibition game not too long ago and they tied (exhibition games don't have shootoff)
 
Go Czech Republic! Talk about a tough division lol. Time to answer more questions back home who I'll be rooting for when we play the US...

Edit: This is not as good of a birthday gift as a wished for but challenges are fun too.

Not necessarily. Brazil may struggle against Croatia and Japan...

...but they will end up winning.


Argentina has the worst (or best??) schedule. Brazil always gets easy 1st rounds...
 
damn. USA are fvcked.

Brazil FTW

Group C is the toughest. Cote D'Ivoire are a solid team, and Serbia finished top of their qualifying group. Argentina & Netherlands are top 5 teams.
 
Argentina's group is tough. You have Holland (Ranked #3 in the World on the Fifa rankings), Argentina (#4), Serbia & Montenegro who won their qualification group over Spain, and Ivory Coast who are the black horse.

Czech Rep's group: Czech Republic (Ranked #2 in the World on Fifa Coca Cola Rankings), USA (#8), Italy (#12), and the dangerous Ghana.

Those rankings mean pretty much nothing, the only one that does is the one for Brazil as they always back it up. Czech Republic needs to step up and back it up this time around, they've come close in Euro '96 and Euro '04 (oh so close). However internationally they haven't done anything since they split from Slovakia...The time is to bring their best to Germany and kick some a$$.
