Forza Pazza still in 1st, but others are catching up

Forza Pazza went 3-1 and got 3 of 4 teams who advanced to the Round of 16 to stay in first with 44 points but there are now 49 (vs 43) people within 10 points.  Twenty got all 4 matches correct and 15 got all 4 Round of 16 teams (including Krispy Kicker who blasted out of last place to 66th with 27 pts).  Princesa (moved from 54th-tied to 22nd-tied, 36 pts), Ish (32nd-T to 12th-T, 38), Rivas (21st-T to 9th-T, 39), and Lionelmessi (10th-T to 4th, 41) were perfect today.  Big Tex (42) fell to 3rd with EEChick1400 moving to 2nd (43) thanks to getting all 4 matches correct.

On the flip side, six went 2-2 and Coin Tossed (regained last with 22 pts) only got 1 of 4 teams.  Big Tex and Edu (64th-T, 30) missed both Germany's and Australia's wins today.  Since the 3rd set of games started yesterday, Chi-Town Mikey's (14th-T to 56th-T) and Desert17 (14th-T to 62nd-T) have been in a massive freefall.

Sixty-five picked ENG, 63 picked USA, 64 picked GER, and 23 picked AUS to win their matches today.  On the Round of 16 side, 66 had GER, 65 had ENG, 61 had USA, and only 19 had GHA.  While a lot were predicting the USA would get revenge against GER (2002 Qtrfinals) in the Round of 16, instead the USA will try to avenge their 2006 RR loss to GHA.  Amazing how things work out.


ALG went goalless and HON is the only other country yet to score.
