So... what does everyone think?

I say 3-1 Brazil. I think they have too much firepower for the French. I dont think Ronaldo will implode the way he did in 98 either. Ronaldinho has yet to put a stamp of brilliance on the tournament yet... and hasnt really needed to either. You get the feeling that he's on the verge of doing something that will completely lift his team single-handedly over another. Or maybe I'm just hoping...

I like the game they have been playing up til now. I still think they would have advanced this far without Ronaldo, but since he is showing some form, you might as well keep riding it since he's hot!!!

Cant wait...

Basically my forecast is the same as Esco's but I think France will surprise everyone, as they did against Spain. I anticipate England France in the second semi (but could easily be Brazil Portugal). Then England Germany final 40 years on with of course England to win. I don't expect to many of you all to agree with me though but I did pick Germany over Argentina. :D

Brazil cant seem to catch a break around here!! Number 1 ranked team in the world, defending champs... and they've won every game so far this tourney! AND... they're getting better with each game!! Ronaldo's coming into form... Ronaldinho has yet to make his mark... Robinho coming back from injury...

I'm liking our chances to win it all... again.

I think it will be a high scoring game. The brazilien team can score goals, but their defense is dismal.

Watch out for Zidane tomorrow... I feel something special coming in his old age... Also watch out for Henry for Frane who might be able to find holes in a slow but sturdy Brazilian defense(Henry is faster than them)


Could be a War of 1812 Semifinal... ahahaha

Could not be though :D

I think France will give Brazil a hard time and win. This is playing out perfectly for England. We will beat France in the semi's and play Germany in the final. Bring it on !!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

France looked much better in the first half. Hopefully they can score and win the game. Brazil was lucky to avoid a red card.

EDIT - France finally scores. 1-0 (Henry).
