Re: World Cup Betting Round 2 (none / 0)

Disappointingly, I picked all 8. The recurring scenario : plucky underdog sees its hopes dashed at the finish. Not a single one of them made it, despite eight hard-fought matches.

Revisions to my predictions? I would tend to down-rate Argentina. Which, all else being equal, promotes the Netherlands to the final. And makes France overall winner. But I haven't seen a full match by Colombia yet...
