Comments on: Mexico’s World Cup Predictions http://mexico.worldcupblog.org/1/mexicos-world-cup-predic.html World Cup 2006 - Germany Mon, 23 Nov 2009 03:09:36 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Diego http://mexico.worldcupblog.org/1/mexicos-world-cup-predic.html/comment-page-1#comment-368 Diego Tue, 02 May 2006 16:50:16 +0000 http://mexico.worldcupblog.org/1/mexicos-world-cup-predic.html#comment-368 My prediction is: Mexico 2 - 0 Iran Mexico 2 - 1 Angola Portugal 1 - 1 Mexico Mexico will finish second in this group with 7 points, same as Portugal, but Portugal will have a better goal difference. In the next round Mexico will meet Argentina and will win 2 - 1 in a historic match. In quartefinals, Mexico will face Germany, as in 1986 and will overcome history to defeat Germany 2 - 0 in their own World Cup (as they did in 1986). In semifinals, Mexico will play France, with an inspired Zidane and Henry who will combine to defeat Mexico 2 - 0 in a disapointing match for Mexico. Finally, in the match for the 3rd and 4th place, Mexico will face England, tie, and lose in penalty kicks 4-2(as always). This might be a bit optimistic, but I feel Mexico has the best team in years, and this is the time to make history. My prediction is:

Mexico 2 – 0 Iran
Mexico 2 – 1 Angola
Portugal 1 – 1 Mexico

Mexico will finish second in this group with 7 points, same as Portugal, but Portugal will have a better goal difference.

In the next round Mexico will meet Argentina and will win 2 – 1 in a historic match.

But hopefully, the players wont be thinking that they can "walk over" Angola, Iran and Portugal or we might see the biggest upset of the WC(which is Mexico going home early).

Boa Sorte para sua seleção, Pedro. Eu gostari que ganharam a Angola e Iran, mais não a Mexico. :) If there was such thing as fairness in the World of soccer, Mexico and Portugal should go to the second round.

Massimo believes Angola and Iran are the weakest from the 32. I don't. A team that beats Brazil so frequently as Mexico and that has been present so often in the WC's, must be taken seriously. All the best - but I hope POR goes... ;-) Hi guys,

Next round, the best game matchup would desirably be argentina, Mexico 2-1 Argentina Quarter finals, not likely they play Germany, but possibly Sweden Mexico 1-0 Sweden Semi Finals Mexico 2-1 Brazil Finals Best possible hope of a matchup, Germany and Mexico, that would be a sweet game. Ideally Mexico 2-1 Germany First Round:

Mexico 2 – 0 Iran

Mexico 3- 1 Angola

Portugal 1 – 2 Mexico

Mexico will undoubtledly finish first, Portugal may put up a decent fight and Iran may surprise, but it wont be enough to upset Mexico.

Next round, the best game matchup would desirably be argentina,

Mexico 2-1 Argentina

Quarter finals, not likely they play Germany, but possibly Sweden

Mexico 1-0 Sweden

Semi Finals

Mexico 2-1 Brazil

Finals
Best possible hope of a matchup, Germany and Mexico, that would be a sweet game.
