Game On - 2010 FW FIFA World Cup Sweep
Okay guys it's not pretty but below is a list of who has got what team.
The forum names on the right of the list are in alphabetical order so flick down them and you'll find who you've got.
There was one team left over because we were one short of a full sweep - Chile. Chile is now a wild card type prize - whoever is responsible for the first team in the Cup to score five goals or more gets Chile as a bonus (unless Chile get wiped out first).
I have a spreadsheet that I'll use to keep tabs on what the teams are doing and I'll put it up later tonight... I'll update it once every couple of days for the people who aren't too interested in keeping an eye on their team each game.
All the best to everyone except whoever plays against Ghana!

I duuno Dale, it's still in your hands, win your two games left in and you're there. The other two teams won't beat Germany.
England will go through, just down to the group being easy, although if you do win your two remaining games and England win the group then it will make the next round interesting.......... ;-)

3 teams unreal
my heart is with australia ,cos i still think we have to win,but my head says its going to be hard after the game they played the other night against germany with very little attacking and defenders played very ordinary,i still think italy will regain the tittle once more after watching them play with more proffesional attacking skill etc,but i will have to check out argentinas tactics,cos this is the team i drew,thanks ben ,now i have three teams,if this is my personal trifecta ,i have a good chance

Soon be down to the last 16, then hopefully the quality of the games will improve. Been some pretty average matches overshadowed by some very average referee's. Early alarm tomorrow for the Aussies must win match...

big upset
Big upset with Brazil, great play by the Dutch, opens it wide up now. That stomping was a red card, what Tim Cahill did was a yellow every day of the week.

And then there were four
Uruguay - Marky
Netherlands - Indiana
Germany - Emric1
Spain - Leemo
Third place will be awarded to the losing semi-final team with the highest goal count.
Good luck guys.
