So let me break this down a bit.
Group A:
Spain - Clearly gone through to the semi finals, no question about it.
New Zealand - Out, no hope, thanks for coming don't let the door hit you on the way out, we don't want ass prints on our country's door
Iraq play New Zealand, ideal result is a draw (Total bias from a South African perspective) 2-0 takes Iraq through to the semi's, 1-0 leads to...
South Africa, Iraq winning 1-0 to New Zealand means South Africa need to score at least one goal and can't lose by more than 1 goal. Iraw 2-0 win, SA need to pull off a draw or better to get through.
So group A has come down to the final games which are played at teh same time Saturday night
Group B:
USA: Read what was said for New Zealand
Egypt: What a time to be an African, winning against USA will cause utter chaos
Italy vs Brazil : This game is going to be a beautiful game, two football giants on South African soil (I may be killing people for a ticket) basically this game needs to go Italy's way.If Egypt beat USA 2-0, Italy have to beat Brazil 2-0, final points 6 a piece 0 to USA, final GD will be Egypt + 2, Italy + 3, Brazil + 2, Brazil will go through on goals scored.
However if Egypt beat USA 3-0, Italy have to beat Brazil 3-0, same points GD E +3, I +4, B+1, which would mean Brazil don't go through at all.
Basically put, this is the weekend to be a Football supporter.
What do you guys think?
