Wow, 6 people predicted this first game correctly, along with alex who went for 0-0.

Not bad

5 people lead the pack with 6 points each:
topgearmad
mooney
samj147
tinie147
sean_paul

Proudly bringing up the rear at a magnificent 0 points each:
jack_pot

Now that I am joint top after the first day I firmly expect to get everything else wrong if the season was anything to go by.

There's a saying in German that applies well here. Something along the lines of 'even a blind chicken finds a grain occasionally.'

Damn I went for 1-1 initially but then I thought neither team has much firepower.

Woo, predicted

Update after the first round of group games:

jack_pot has had a bit of a mare so far along with his friend mrmagic. They both sit on 2 points after 8 games...... _unforgiven_ has the same number of points, but he can at least point to him not predicting the first day of games as an excuse.

samj147 has raced to a solid 14 points to take the overall lead!

Wow these games are obviously fixed then if I'm only on 2 points.

points for goals scored or something ?

I'm getting lucky at predicting these scorelines

You get 4 points for the exact score, 2 points for correct result.

4 for mich so far today!

What is this sorcery??

Well done to sarahh for getting both results spot on yesterday!! Portugal's 3-2 win and Germany's majestic 2-1 victory gave her 8 points

tinie147 took home the most combined points over the last two days with 12!

I'll post the standings tonight after the second game.

glad i got at least 1 correct, the german holland game

Update after day 7:

Since the last update, tinie has absolutely gobbled up the field with 16 points in 3 days!
unforgiven is regretting his late entry as he lingers at the bottom with 4 points...
topgearmad has also had a terrible time since the last update, falling down the table with 2 points from the last 4 days.
