We have a new entrant :thumbup:

If anyone else wants to join in with a prediction for the USA Ghana match please feel free to do so (before the match starts please!)

If that happened, I'd probably try to sell Toronto to the USA (or just give it to them). I think this would indirectly solve most of the problems suffered by Canadian residents.

You're close and what you wrote makes a lot of sense. Don't give up!

Instead of what you wrote for the Uruguay match, you have to decide on one of the following two options:

1. Kiwilass Uruguay 2 KoreaRepublic 2

You'll get 2 points at the end of extra time if the teams actually draw 2-2. Any other draw (e.g. 0-0) will give you 1 point. The penalty phase is completely ignored for a draw prediction.

2. Kiwilass Uruguay 5 KoreaRepublic 2 PENS

Here you're predicting the actual penalty shoot-out score (and we ignore the score from extra time). So if Uruguay actually win the penalty shoot-out 5-2 then you'll get 5 points. If Uruguay wins the penalty shoot-out with any other score, you'll get 2 points.

Worth the gamble?

27 Jun...predictions before 11:00am AST please:thumbup:

* Germany 0 England 0
* Argentina 0 Mexico 0



Same as previous round... predict the score at the end of "normal time"...for 1 point (correct result) or 3 points (correct score).

If you fancy a flutter, there's now the additional option of predicting a penalty result for extra points! TWO points for correct result and a massive 5 (Five) points for correct penalty score! (Just add the word " PENS" on the end of the prediction!)

Well done to Ghana getting through to the quarter finals. That last goal was a cracker.

That's a relief, wouldn't want the yanks to get further than England. That would be just too embarrassing.

At least the US would have been very understated about it.
