France will dominate this group easily and finish with 3 wins and 9 points. Denmark and Peru will battle for the 2nd place and Denmark will get it because of experience. Australia will fight their hearts out in every match, but will end up in 4th place and maybe a tie against Peru in their belt.

I hope Australia can surprise and finish in top 2, but it is a very hard job to do.

only that goalkeeper isn't too reliable Brad Jones, we know him at Feyenoord here in holland, that he could often make some awkward errors

If they take too much of a loss against France, they might lose their confidence.

France not giving their best against Australia. combined with Australians defending ferociously this might well end in a scoreless draw.

Have you ever seen Italy play? Thats basically 55 % of their strategy. 40 % is defending and 5 % is counterattacks.
