By now, the second round of group matches have been completed. Ecuador, Germany, England, Argentina, the Netherlands, Portugal, Brazil and Spain have confirmed a place to the round of the 16. Haha, I'm not surprised with this fact cos' these teams really deserve such honour to proceed on.

While these 8 teams celebrate, France is the only top seeded team which struggle throughout the 2 matches, seeing Switzerland and Korea Republic obtaining 4 points ahead. Well, maybe they really deserve not to go to the next round. Togo might be abit too hard to handle for France. Hmm...just too bad. Maybe Switzerland can help France to win Korea Republic (which is hard too) while France is to win over Togo. Well...still I think the possibility is very low cos' France is no longer the 1998 team which had lifted the FIFA World Cup trophy.

Hmm...there comes the final round for the group stage. Will there be surprises? Or just as expected? I'll keep you updated about it.
