personally, based on the myths of european soil. i dont fancy Brazil getting past France in the quarters. possibly a repeat of the 98 finals, outpaced, outplayed and at times outclassed. wait, Brazil is my fav team, younger squad that plays the shred-style skillful passing game, reminds me of the magical 1970 squad. '' IF '' they get past french toast, screw u.... hahaha!!! like i said, ''IF'' 8)
