France vs Germany [ 1 - 2 ]

Brazil vs Columbia [ 2 - 1 ]

Argentina vs Belgium [ 2 - 1 ]

Holland vs Costa Rica [ 2 - 1 ]

No more bets on France vs Germany... :warning

Ahahahaa... you caught me. :D

Actually the truth is I only watch it when the world cup is on. Other than TSN highlights here or there I haven't watched a soccer match in 4 years. (since last world cup)

Perhaps the coin I'm flipping is luckier than the one you're flipping? :1orglaugh

Sad to see Columbia knocked out. They were my team of the tournament up till tonights game.

Germany vs Brazil should be a cracker!

germany/brazil tonight was an almost 7/2 double.. I got back too late to bet - choker!

Well Brazil had a little or lots of help from the referee :mad:

Germany, Brazil and Argentina all safely through to the semi finals.

Who will join them, Holland or Costa Rica ??

It's shaping up nicely now ! :thumbsup

With that 1-0 Argentina victory you better believe it's shaping up nicely. :D

I nearly crapped myself when Messi got that breakaway and near miss in the final minutes.

3 for 3 for you so far this round. Putting you in a very strong position at the top.

If this games ends 2 - 1 you will be hard to catch!

CostaFuckin'Rica into Extra Time with the Dutch? hahahaha

Bah... so close and yet so far for Costa Rica :Oh crap

chinese too me soccer

I was rooting for Costa Rica in the end there. They can be proud of themselves.

Crazy to see Holland change keepers before the penalty shootout. Haven't seen that before in my years of watching football. Luckily it worked out for them in the end i suppose.

Onwards to the semi finals... :pimp

Indeed. I backed costa rica at evens in the shootout because of that. Bah! Put me on the 'against' Krul's sportsmanship camp :1orglaugh

CDSmith got 3 correct scores.that's very impressive Bravo

Congrats on the trophy, CDsmith :thumbsup

time for semi finals now!

Ok semi final time. Still 6 points up for grabs!

I'm heading out just now but will be back in an hour or so, so i will put the new table standings up once i'm back.

For now though, here's the 2 semi final games (Extra Time counts) so get your predictions in before kick off on Tuesday:

(my predictions)

Brazil vs Germany [ 1 - 2 ]

Holland vs Argentina [ 1 - 1 ]


Almost there now! Good luck :winkwink:

Third place game not included?

Suppose we could add that too if everyone agreed.

I always hated those games. Never did see the point in them...

I don't see why the ref can't give a yellow card to the keeper when he starts all that bullshit to put off the player taking the pen.

His job is to get on his line, stay there, and move once the ball has been hit. If he booked him after the first time, he wouldn't have been able to do it again...

Nah, if your rules were not to include that game then it's all good, just asked in case you forgot it etc. Just wanted to get the confirmation that only semis and finals left.

The first semi-final is on Tuesday so make it count !! :pimp

I'm backsliding faster than a pornstar at a Crisco convention. Yikes!

Anyone with 36 points or less has pretty much been eliminated by CDSmith (that bastard!) now, no?
I can still tie him if he gets all 3 wrong, I get 2 exact scores and all 3 outcomes correct :1orglaugh

Brazil vs Germany [ 0 - 1 ]

Holland vs Argentina [ 1 - 1 ]

there are only 6 points left up for grabs mate

What about 3th place match

Brazil vs Germany [ 0 - 1 ]

Holland vs Argentina [ 0 - 1 ]


Good luck everyone. T'aint over til... it's over. Is there a fat lady in soccer? :D

It ain't over until the proverbial fat lady sings.

I am really hoping you are wrong on that last score!

Not included in the game, read few posts above.

only when Claire Balding fills in

Brazil vs Germany [ 1 - 2 ]

Holland vs Argentina [ 2 - 1 ]

Correct score for each semi and correct score in final = 9 points... No?

You played without knowing the rules :1orglaugh:thumbsup
Correct score is 2 points :)

I'm gonna need some points so here's some perfect scores :-P

Brazil vs Germany [ 2 - 1 ]

Holland vs Argentina [ 3 - 1 ]

Brazil vs Germany [ 1 - 1 ]

Holland vs Argentina [ 0 - 0 ]

After consideration, we WILL be including the 3rd place playoff match. :warning


So we have 2 semi finals, 3rd place playoff, and World Cup final to play for. So 8 points still up for grabs!!

Make sure you check back in time to get your scores in. Miss it, miss out... :)

Brazil vs Germany [ 1 - 0 ]

Holland vs Argentina [ 1 - 0 ]

Thanks for keeping a win possible for me ;)

too bad there's no transparency in this system

Brazil vs Germany [ 2 - 1 ]

Holland vs Argentina [ 2 - 1 ]

How do you mean ??

I doubt he's calling your integrity into question by that remark. At least I hope he isn't (for his sake)

Speaking as someone who has run a fair amount of sports pools I can honestly say you've done an exceptional job with this pool, it being all done basically with a hands-on approach. Keeping track of all the scores, tabulating all the points... all I can say is bravo sir. Well done.
