To potentially succeed.

They need more defensive aware players, i think. Not just offensively talented.

Argentina finally delivered a semi-decent performance and it paid off. I'm happy for Aguero and Messi but can't see this team making the quarter-finals.

Very proud of the young team though.

Well done to Argentina.

I can't help but feel disappointed that both Iceland and Nigeria failed to qualify with Croatia though, they were exciting teams I feel that actually put their all into the competition rather than being below par for two games and then scrape a win on the third which sounds alot like England's South Africa World Cup form.

Argentina vs Nigeria 2-1
Iceland vs Croatia 1-2

Croatia and Argentina advance, Croatia with a clean sweep and Argentina with a win and a tie. Nigeria 3rd, Iceland 4th.

I wouldn´t be surprised if they reached semis after they tear through Denmark.

Morocco match showed that Spain is very vulnerable and not in their best form.

Man, they've improved so much in such a short time. They struggled in the WC qualifications just months ago and now they're turning into dark horses of this cup.

The most entertaining part of the match was watching Maradona making a complete fool of himself. He clearly still has issues.

I've got to say that as Denmark are the team that I bet on to win the World Cup as all of the obvious frontrunners were too short in their odds.
