MyGuy Miyagi: Brazil vs Colombia


Disclaimer: I do NOT know Futbol (Soccer) as well as I do basketball, not by a long shot. But I love the game, it is beautiful. I just looked at the stats and maybe I can figure something out for it.

A Prediction: 

Brazil 1 Colombia 0 (I stole this score from here... and they got the Germany/France score right.)

I went with a Brazil 3 Columbia 1 final score.... not sure why I think there isn't any defense in soccer.... I really think Columbia will win, but Brazil playing in Brazil. It's too much of a gamble to bet against them.

To Score First: 

Neymar is one of the best players in the world. But James (Ha-Mez) Rodriguez of Colombia has 5 goals in this tourney.

Jerseys:
Brazil
Colombia


Where: 

Estadio Castelao,Fortaleza 

Winner of this match plays Germany in the semis.

MyGuy Miyagi: France vs Germany

Hey, I'm back from Vacation!!!! Good to see everyone again. World Cup fever is spreading faster than the bird flu! The only cure is more cowbell! I'm still getting used to Vigooaaaaaall. I just predicted the score for France V Germany.

Disclaimer: I do NOT know Futbol (Soccer) as well as I do basketball, not by a long shot. But I love the game, it is beautiful. I just looked at the stats and maybe I can figure something out for it.

A Prediction: 

Germany 1 France 0 (I stole this score from here)

NY Times says this should be a pretty even match. Germans defense was tested last round, and France has been more offensive than people gave them credit for before the tourny started.

I went with a German 2 France 1 final score, a 1-0 score is so boring and I think we'll see 3 goals.

Germany in their 4 matches: Vs Portugal (W 4-0), Vs Ghana (T 2-2), Vs USA (W 1-0), Vs Algeria (2-1)

France in their 4 matches: Vs Honduras (W3-0), Vs Switzerland (W 5-2), Vs Ecuador (T 0-0), Vs Nigeria (2-0)

To Score First: 

Well. Muller scored first twice (in the POR and USA game), even if he comes off the bench, I'd guess him.

Where: 

Estadio do MaracanĂ£, Rio de Janeiro

Winner of this match plays the winner of Brazil-Columbia
