Germany going out was a huge shock, but their performance was very average ultimately. The games are too close or hard to call for me today. Best bet would probably be to go both teams to score if I was going to place one but I won't be. I'd rather just enjoy the game. Maybe Ronaldo and Suarez to score and Messi and Griezman would be worth something also. I hope an underdog goes on to win the whole tournament as none of the big teams have impressed. Croatia would be a good choice and I think the have the team most people will under estimate.

Belgium where are you? *wink wink*  Grin In my honest opinion Belgium is the underdog that deserves the most to win the whole thing out of all the other 'favorites'. As we have already seen some favorites have been performing poorly or flat-out flopped like Germany so yeah big names don't mean anything these days haha.

I don't disagree with you about Belgium, and they could go far but they face some tough opposition in the next round assuming they beat Japan today which I think they will. They will then face the winner of Brazil and Mexico which will likely be Brazil but who knows, and then will play the winner of Uruguay and France. If they can get to the final though they could have every chance of wining it because the other teams on the opposite side of the tournament don't look that dangerous and the most threatening of them are Columbia and Croatia, who both played well initially but their last games were very average and Columbia even lost 30 to Sweden.

Lionel Messi most probably would be taking retirement after the end of Argentina's journey in the World Cup. I want this little man to play as much as possible so I'd want Argentina to win France this time at least for this person.
France too consist of youth and energetic players but they still need some time to excel their playing skills and they have.

A player like him could still have one more tournament ion him. Same goes for Ronaldo imo.
