World Cup Round 2 Preview

We’re half way there! In another 2 weeks, it’ll be over, and the countdown for South Africa will begin. *SIGH* I’ve never been so pessimistic in my life….damn this WORLD CUP!! Haha! Another month plus to go before we witness Liverfool singing “You’ll Never Wank Alone” after bunking Chelski in the opener. Hehehe…but let’s talk about the present first…. 

Germany vs Sweden
Germany, my embraced country since 1990, when I watched Lothar Matthaus kick ass and lifted the World Cup trophy. Klinsmann is now officially my favorite German manager ever, and I hope he remains for as long as he can. After that, give it to Matthaus! Obviously, Germany are favorites to progress to the next round, but I don’t think it’ll be that straightforward for them. They should bundle off Sweden, 1-0 in 90 minute. Fingers crossed. GERMANY

Argentina vs Mexico
Well, on paper, it looks like an easy win for the Argies. I think Mexico will push them all the way, and because they’re both South/Central Americans, they may neutralize each other out. The onus is on Argentina to kick the Mexicans’ anuses like how the Americans love it. ARGENTINAEngland vs Ecuador
Wow. 6 time World Cup champions England faces off with 3 time South American champions Ecuador. England, playing the best football one has ever witnessed in this edition of the World Cup, will be odds on favorite to pummel Ecuador. ENGLAND TO WIN 6-4, 3-6, 7-6

The Dutch slenderly edges this on player calibre. This game may go beyond 90 minutes, with the Dutch clinching it before the penalty shootout. The Portuguese, will try hard to overthrow the game plan, but I don’t think they have the capableness in them to curb the Dutch. One moment of brilliance to end this game. HOLLAND

Italy vs Australia
One of the favorites, with the cushiest route of all the countries, at least to the semifinals, take on the Aussie rugby team. Italians should filch this one but as the Italian scandal looms, it’ll be challenging for the Pasta Rastas to overpower a country that has a place called Wollongong. After the stunt that De Rossi pulled, I’ll be wishing for these Ities to be chucked out. Hmmm. ITALYSwitzerland vs Ukraine
It’s the least attractive 2nd round matchup. Who cares which country wins? We all know they won’t go far anyway. The winner of this match will meet Italy in the quarterfinals. That’s where their World Cup adventure ends. WHO CARES?

With Ronaldo McDonaldo in the team, the Ghanaians will be bombarded with super combo meals throughout the game. Kakakaka will be laughing all the way to soon-to-be-relegated AC Milan and then go on to become the top scorer of Serie C. The Ghanaians will be hoping that Markus Merk officiates the game so he’d give them another charitable penalty like he did against the USA. But that won’t stop the funny teeth men from a win. BRAZILSpain vs France
Looks like a savoury matchup. Spain edges this a little. Fabregas vs Henry? Hmmmm… Though the French were unpersuasive in the group phase, just don’t write them off for this game. As long as the French rest old man Zidane, they’ll perform better. As for Spain, that Torres dude has been grandiose, and I certainly wouldn’t mind him at Arsenal, but I don’t think that’ll happen because the Chelski wankers will hijack that bid, just like they did with Shaun Wright Phillips, now happily warming up the bench at Stamford Bridge.
