England can only face a team from groups A, B, C and D until the Semi-finals.

So im 99..9% sure England cant face Spain in the quarter finals, regardless of how the results go.



Also, Ivory coast, i cant seem them going through. Im a huge Ivory Coast fan because of Drogba and Kalou and other Premiership players from Ivory coast, but they have Portugal, Brazil and North Korea in their group. They will probally all beat Korea, which means IvoryCoast have to beat either Brazil or Portugal to go through. Isnt easy at all.

Cant see any upsets this year tbh, Spains group is so easy, Chile, Switz and Honduras.
England groups easy.
Italys pretty easy
Netherlands pretty easy
Argentina pretty easy

Germanys & Frances group is the only way a potential upset can happen in my eyes.

Germany have Serbia, Ghana and Australia. Serbians are solid as too ghana, terrific work rates and australia have some decent players.

France have Mexico, South africa and Uruguay. Host nation will not be easy to beat, Uruguay are a good side and Mexico are actually very capable of beating France!

Other than that, i expect the other groups to be very predictable.

Im just upset Albert Riera isn't in the Spain squad

Bugga off Quagmire!

You can go to this link ---> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_FIFA_World_Cup_knockout_stage

If England win group and Spain are runners-up or vice versa, then they will meet in the Quarter-finals

My mother bought an "official wall chart 2010 South Africa" and it has a different layout lol!

It says Winner of A plays 2nd in B
Winner of B plays 2nd in A
And like that for all of the groups! lol!

Im confuzzzleeeddd!

Have i been ripped off? well not me my mum! lolol

Errrrrmmmmm... I posted the link... but I didn't even look at it.. England and Spain can't meet until the semi-finals...

Cue_Power is right and I'm wrong... Apologieeeeessssss..

Well, I can't disagree with his mum, can I?

it was in group stages of Euro 2004 we came 2nd in group and lost to portugal on penalties in quarters or last 16 cant remember but zizou didnt knock us out

Well either way, he scored 2 goals in the 91st and 93rd minute after i think Lampard scored!

I was in Scotland, the Burnsy bar getting stick from all the Scots for being English!!

Yes...they were cheering on France! Outrageous! lol

not really they dont have anyone to support so they support Jason Scotland and trinidad and tobago if they are in or the opponents of england simples

im half scottish id support em if they got into anythin lol

England 3 - 0 Mexico (Tonight)


England 1 - 0 Brazil (World Cup 2010 Final)

u wish our team will never beat brazil or spain

how do you know mate ?

Ahem im scottish and i dont mind if england do well, just dont want them to win!! We'll never hear the end of it.

Im so sorry english people but i dont think you can do it. There are too many great teams in it.

As i said before Spain will win it, or get very far. My money on them all the way.

£40 Spain to reach the semi's!!

£100 Says England Get To The Semi's

Portugal to be the World Cup's whipping boys? 0-0 with the 117th best team in the world... cost me god knows how much money!

Argentina definitely WONT win the cup

Maradona is like Steve Staunton, legendary footballer for their country then takes over as manager and tarnishes his reputation in his own country where they are regarded as heroes. The only thing hes managed is to turn Argentina into an average team of world class footballers.
Did anyone see their recent result against bolivia?
6-1 to bolivia i recall, anyone that even draws with bolivia is NOT good enough to win the world cup.

Exactly the point I made on the first page!

Spain will win the world cup easily

Which is why I tip them. It all adds up..6-1 loss...only just qaulifying..a manager that is a...well lets not go there but it all adds up to a Argentina win!

nearly lou on the mexico match but neither england or breazul will even get to the semis

GOOD! some1 get this man a drink
