CRO 0 - 1 GER: Croatia performed well in the first match. But, the attacking threat they showed would n't be enough to beat the Germans. I guess Germany will win this one with a bit of hard work. Klose to score.

AUT 2 - 1 POL: Again, I don't really care. Random prediction.

Everyone who did not watch yesterdays Switzerland vs Turkey game missed a lot. The game was action packed, funny and tense. The game as concluded with a goal in the last minute ( deep into the injury time ) to the Turks. But that just does not tell the whole story. The heavens opened up. And the ground was getting worse every minute. By the time the clock showed 30 minutes, there were puddles of water all around the place. The ball just didn't move. The Turks had their hearts in their mouths when a back pass was intercepted by one such puddle. The ball stopped midway between the Turkish keeper and a Swiss player. Luckily for the Turks their keeper was quick to clear the ball. At one stage all the players resorted to play the ball in the air and air alone. During the break, groundsmen punctured the pitch for the water to drain quickly. The second half didn't involve any such drama but it was highly competitive. The shot for the last goal took a wicked deflection off a Swiss defender, looped over the Goal Keeper into the goal. Very unlucky for the Swiss indeed.

I hope today's matches are just as exciting as yesterday.
