Sorry, dunno who "rvr" is & no-score predicted for Italy either. :unsure:
Ruud Van Nistelrooy, I'm guessing.

Anyway, I'd better do the predicion for the next round, as I'm doing some exciting rain watching at Edgbaston tomorrow8-)

Greece 0 Spain 2, Fabregas
Russia 2 Sweden 1, Pavlyuchenko

Holland's reverses do everyone who kept the faith proud, particularly bi & Somers who cop sixers for 2-0 wins.

No-one went for 2-0 Italy in our second game, but Threes gets a six for the Italian win & a Pirlo opener.

Overall

1) Halsey 70
=2) Clapo 65
=2) NUFAN 65
4) Threes 62
=5) altoz 61
=5) 99* 61
7) headhunter 56
8) Vimes 54

17) Rubble 31
18) jammay 25


A bad day for our leaders, with both Tom & Clapo drawing blanks for the day. A solid 6-point haul for NUFAN means he now shares the silver spot with Clapo. Threes is now in fourth with 6 for the day with altoz & 99* a point behind in joint fifth.

New Scoring System for Knock-Out Stage

Largely the same, but a few crucial differences:

I'm also now looking for a half-time prediction (Team A ahead, Team B ahead, level) which will be worth 3 points &, as the draw as result has now been removed as a possibility, will be giving a minus 3 to anyone who picks the wrong winner at the end of the tie.

I'll only be taking into account the score after 120 minutes in the event of a draw at the end of normal time (so if you go 2-1 and that is the score after extra time, you get the full 3, but if you go 1-1 and that is the score after 90 minutes but not after the added 30 you get zip) &, obviously, everyone can now predict the scores being level with Team A winning on penalties.

So I'm looking for something like:

Team A 2 - Team B 1
HT: Draw
First goalscorer: Ray Vinghomo
 

NUFAN

Y no Afghanistan flag
I was so close to picking Pirlo, why didn't I!!

Russia 1 Sweden 1
First goal scorer: Pavlyuchenko

Spain 2 Greece 1
First goal scorer: Torres
 

33/3from3.3

International Vice-Captain
First thing I hear when I wake up this morning "Pirlo steps up to take the penalty"... So gun.

Spain 1 - Greece 0 (Fabregas)
Sweden 2 - Russia 0 (Larsson)

Actullay what happened i was not able to access internet yesterday

So had to call my wife who is 3500 km away spending around 100 INR taking 15 minutes to make the entries. she has no idea about football so tried to make it as simple as possible.

actully it was Ita 2 Fra 1 :( if she didnt make the mistake should have got another 3 points


i am sure no one before would have taken so much pain for just participating in a competition :cool:
