    Timid bets today: 5 on Australia (but cheering for Peru);5 on Nigeria (but not unsatisfied if the Hermanos win)

    30 on Germany. Though they aren't playing so well, but have a good record against South Korea. Let's see...

    I must have been mad to bet on Spain, who tiki-tikied their way to 75% possession , no threats, and a loss to pathetic Russia.

    I'm pulling for Mexico (0-0 at halftime), despite betting on Brazil. Brazil misses the injured Marcelo. Neymar, Coutinho and Jesus constitute a dangerous front line, but I'm not sure the midfield or defense is convincing. When Brazil won in 2002, they had Ronaldo, Ronaldhino and Rivaldo up front (at least the equal of the current trio), and Cafu and Roberto Carlos running the wings. Without Marcelo, there's nobody in even the same class as Cafu or Roberto Carlos anywhere but up front (Brazil does have good goalkeeping this year).

    France is the opposite: mediocre strikers, with a dynamic midfield. Belgium might be the most balanced team. England has the easiest route to the finals (especially now that Spain lost).
