Algeria was the ancestral home of Zidane, fyi. :wink:

Also, it is good to see all Asian teams and Australia get eliminated.

And fuck the Koreans, committing rough fouls all over. Just like how they rough up their women in bed. :biggrin:

USA fucking shit. Played hoping no result in the Ghana-Portugal match.Rather Ghana won and qualified. Makan for all KO games. Teams are better now and unlikely many highscoring games.

Agree with you and Narong that "over" trend may not carry over into knockout stage.

Makan may have low odds. Now time to focus on picking the winner.

You can get a pretty good idea of the way things will go based on the starting line up of the favorite. For example, consider the 2 matches

USA-Germany 0-1
Portugal-Ghana 2-1

Germany played 4 defenders, 5 mid-fielders and 1 forward.
Portugal on the other hand played 4 defenders, 3 mid-fielders and 3 forwards.

Germany's configuration is their preferred defensive configuration that they typically use against strong teams.
Portugal's on the other hand is what they would play when they need to go all out to win a match.

Assuming the favorite is correctly identified, the favorite will usually dictate the pace of the game.

For the Germany configuration, we can guess that we are in for a slow moving match with a low chance of many goals.
For the Portugal configuration, we can guess that we are in for a faster paced match with a high chance of many goals.

The coaches of Germany and USA teams used to be colleagues... you can tell they were mentally prepared to play for a draw.

Ghana had some dressing room troubles before the match against Portugal, not a wise choice to bet on Ghana to win.
