(IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Amazingly Brazil never have won gold. |

FT 3-1. GB need a draw against Uruguay to go through. It's not the winning that matters through, it's kicking Suarez' teeth out.

Are Spain out? can I begin the celebration?
EDIT: bad timing again. anyway... YES!! I'd predicted they're win the gold medal, good to be proven wrong sometimes. This post has been edited by Zed.D: Jul 29 2012, 09:42 PM |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Wow, who would have predicted that Spain won't pass this kinda group? It's Brazil's to lose now.

Got tickets for the GB women's team against Canada in the football QFs for Friday.
Finally gave in and bought the shirt too, too lovely not to. (IMG:http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/1592/img0377jm.jpg) |

That's not how football, or sports in general, work. Successful tournement for us now whatever happens. Now way should a pretty much B team who've never really played with each other go this far. A medal would be amazing. South Korea in the QFs I think. |

No, but you were one of the favorites from the get go, it's not like many other teams brought world class players. There are always surprises but GB getting far is not in any way shocking IMO. It's a pretty weak tournament overall.
