Tomorrow is a good day for World Cup fans. First Brazil vs Ghana and then Spain vs France.

Anyway, Brazil vs Ghana will definitely be closer than most think. In order for Brazil to maintain control, they must come out early and control the pace and possession. Brazil has done well finishing on opportunities and even when Ronaldinho and Ronaldo are shut down, young guys like Kaka, Gilberto, etc. are stepping up and helping their team win.

Ghana is a dangerous team, and Czech Republic and USA saw that in their losses to them.

Actually not sleeping in till 2 in the afternoon and getting up at 10:30 for this game. Go Brazil!

Predictions?

Ghana's down Essien, even with him, I really didn't like their chances in this game. Brazil's just too much of a dominant team, they really haven't had to turn it on yet, they will come out and win this game 3-0.

Good point. And you're right, they haven't had to turn it on. As long as they keep control of possession, they have nothing to worry about. Aggressiveness is something they really didn't show and had no need to.

Brazil will win 3-1, with Ronaldo scoring 2 goals and Addiah scoring 1 goal.

This prediction is based on the shit patterns of my 4-year-old cousin.

Ghana is not bad......
I hope they win
10-0

no, for real...
I really became a fan of them.... they have great fun while playing, they play as a team, technic is pretty good.. and you almost cant beat them physical.

And so far, Brazil is overrated a little in this WC.....even with great players like Ronaldinho/Ronaldo/Kaka they havent showed us much this tournament.

I hope 2-1, Ghana....
but i think 2-1 Brazil..

Brazil really havnt lived up to the hype... their games have been boring and lacking team skill... that being said, they still have more skill then most teams...

Doubt it! :D
Ghana will play pretty physical. Thats what they have been doing so far. Unless the refs:dunce: let it get out of control and don't yellow card them, Black Stars have only one chance to win.... be physical. In the cup you need your best player if your side is weaker. Essien is a quality player, and he is out.

If Brazil turn it on they will hurt Ghana, a good group, but not good enough.
Brazil 3-0. They beat up on Japan, a decent side. Test them and they'll usually respond. No one has really tested them yet. So they have crusied.

I hope that Ghana wins, but it seems that the game is over... I don't see them recovering from that 2-0 against them... :(

mixed feelings,
because Brazil is able 2 eliminate Germany, ther pretty strong... and i dont want Germany 2 win,

But for this game, the referee is gay....... they have like 100''ballboys'' and they give a yellow card if players shoot the ball away...pathetic

Nuuuuuuddesss of her plzzzz

That was a boring game. Brazil had no urge. Ghana played better soccer but Brazil caught some lucky breaks thanks to Dida (who I thought deserved MOTM) but Ze Roberto was better statistically.

Ronaldo needs to be given credit. The same overweight, slow and lazy fatass pulled off an amazing goal and still has the moves. Great to see him pass Muller for World Cup goals.

I luv how so many of you are calling him a fatass! A fatass that could score more goals than 90% of players on the pitch with a fractured foot and and eyepatch over the left peeper.

I hope England win:bigwink:
....but you need to be real and understand he is a mega talent fat or not. thats why he has the RECORD!

I have to agree here, everyone is saying that Brazil don't have chances of being champion, but so far, Brazil has always managed to control their games, and their opponents, only Croatia had chances of getting a tie against them...

Brazil is not longer the "Joga Bonito" always football team, they are hiding their best moves and techniques for the last games...

Still, I want them to lose, but I think that either Spain or France will beat them. England and Portugal don't seem to be strong enough against them, either.

I think that only Argentina or Italy have chances of beating that team, and that would be on the Final.

We never claimed to be experts.

But please tell us, what's so wrong with the posts so far?

I think that Brazil is the team who has the most chances of being champion. I think that France won't stand a chance against them, yes, France may press Brazil for several minutes, but they will still fail against them.

Yeah, I still want them to lose, though. They win everything... besides, a Final between two european teams seems more fun to me... :p

as much as i wanted ghana to win, my uncle made a decent point. brazil is a very skilled team (that i hate) and may have watched ghana's game and studied them. seeing ghana cannot finish (they had like 50 breakaways during the czech game and only scored 2) maybe they decided to just let ghana attack and and just quickly counter attack. that seems to be what happened and even though ghana many times almost scored, they didnt. maybe brazil is way better than anybody thinks
