All teams - Italy, Czech Rep, USA and Ghana - still have a chance to qualify.
- Italy (4 points) only needs a tie vs the Czechs to qualify with 5 pts, they sure have the best chances
- The Czechs and Ghana (3 points each) need to win in order qualify safely. A tie helps the Czechs only if the USA (1 point) and Ghana play a tie or if the USA wins but does not score more than 3 goals more than Ghana!
- Ghana, however, can qualify with a tie if either the Czechs lose or Italy loses with more than 3 goals difference!
- The USA can qualify if they win against Ghana and the Czechs either lose against Italy or win with a very high score.
Really interesting
Ghana and Italy. That's my guess. Ghana did a great job so far in this tournament. So they deserve it.

Italy and Ghana.
We'll win against Czech and Ghana will tie, at least.
I've never been a wizard but I hope I can guess at least 50% of my previous sentence! :P (and no, I don't care about Ghana!)
Cheeeers!
Italy has not yet won, Luca :)
Don't forget that they did not win against the USA with one player more on the field. The Czechs have nothing to lose. The team with higher morale will win.
The U.S. team clearly doesn't deserve to go to the next round, and neither does Italy.
The Italy Vs. United States game was by far the most embarassing of this tournament to date. A lack of football, and constant foul playing with 3 players expelled.
My hopes are for Ghana and the Czech Republic.
OK, it's Italy and Ghana. I think these two teams deserved it. Our team (CR) played well the first half. Then came the red card (very stupid foul by Polak) and in the second half we were slow and the Italian defence had no problems.
tsk tsk... people don't like italy and italians... can't understand it, I think it's pure envy!! :)
In the meantine... I ENJOYYYYYYY!! WOOOOOO GO ITALYYYYY!!!
please, keep on saying that we're playing sh+t and don't deserve to go on.... wooo oooooh!!
So it is Italy and Ghana. I think Italy deserved to qualify.
What I find strange is that nobody said what a great player Pirlo is. In the first 2 games he made 1 gol and 2 assists and also today, after a slow start, he made some good things.
