24/06 - 3pm - ((Paraguay vs New Zealand) vs (Slovakia vs Italy)) *Official Thread*

[sam86]

Quite a tough one today!

Which game are you going to watch?

Remember, both doesn't mean flicking between, it's for those that can watch both games at the same time.

Come on the All Whites!!

Watching Paraguay vs New Zealand. Got flair written all over it.

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

i'm really not sure, on one hand i ruddy LOVE the All Whites

on the other hand i might watched Italy incase they go out, which would be ever so funny

 

[Mendoza]

Got to be New Zealand game, would love it if they went through. I have been to see them play 4 times, they have never won...

what needs to happen in this group? new zeaLAD have scored a goal more than italy haven't they? (lol) so surely all they need to do is match what italy do?

New Zealand and Italy have drawn both their games 1-1. I think Paraguay will beat the Kiwi's so a draw will probably be enough for Italy.

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

ah

i thought paraguay-italy was 0-0 for some reason

If New Zealand win, they are through.

If they draw and Italy draw by the same score. New Zealand and Italy are equal on GD, GS and GC. They drew 1-1 against each other. So I imagine it would go down to drawing lots?!

Otherwise, who ever draws today, with more goals, will go through on GS.

It's time for new albion singing* Sir WINSTON Reid to show the World what he's made of -

*heard this from my brothers, flat mates, cousins, uncles plumber. Don't shoot the messenger.

 

[mcshane in the 79th]

Will have them both playing split screen on my monitor at work, however if I need to choose one I'd go for Italy vs Slovakia

 

[astevens76]

one on the tele and one on the laptop.

slovakia v italy is on itv hd so that'll probably be the one on the tv for me

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Hopefully both draws with the same score. Italy losing out to NZ on the drawing of lots, would be AMAZING.

 

[Gerbil]

Paraguay, they're gunna win the whole thing

 

[Yoda]

The Italians look fired up.

 

[sam86]

I unfortunately can't watch both this time round. So have decided on Paraquay / NZ.
Come on the All Whites!

Slovakia and Italy must be par for a draw and Paraguay to defeat NZ.

Martin Skrtel makes Minestrone of the Italian defence and then Robert Vittek takes advantage of an Italian mistake. Slovakia on top.
