Oh well - I was wrong. I predicted a 2-1 win to France rather than 1-0. It was obvious to anyone with working eyes that Brazil were crap this year and far from 'classy' like so many on this board seemed to be shouting. They were never going to win the cup even had they made it past France.
Surely the Brazil/Ghana matched proved that to anyone bothering to watch it properly? Had Ghana the ability to actually get the ball in the net once they get it inside the penalty box Brazil would have been out the last round. As it was they ran rings around Brazil for most of the game but were simply totally unable to finish.
Mind you I also predicted England will go through but allow myself a bit of room on that as they forced a draw with only 10 men for most of the game. England are totally crap at penalties so were never going to win once it went to them.
Even so - amusing how everyone's tune changes from how 'classy' Brazil are to how badly they played. IMHO Brazil never were classy during this tornament.
