My prediction before today was DLD so 2 points, but having lost today I guess that makes it LLD so 1.
4 and qualify on GD: beat Uruguay by a couple and draw with Costa Rica (who'll probably lose by 2 or 3 to Italy).
I thought teams progress on a head-to-head record when teams have level points.
Before today I thought DLW for the 3 matches but I though we weren't that bad today and after watching the other group match I feel Uruguay are there for the taking and Costa Rica may be a tougher test than I'd first though so have amended my final 2 to WD, just got to hope on goal difference.
6 points, beat Uruguay 2-0 and then Costa Rica 3-1

Surely they could have come up with a better option g) than drawing lots - goal average, size of willy, penalty shoot out, anything?Rule 42.5 of the FIFA WC 2014 regs...
The ranking of each team in each group shall be determined as follows:
a) greatest number of points obtained in all the group matches;
b) goal difference in the group matches;
c) greatest number of goals scored in the group matches.
If two or more teams are equal on the basis of the above three criteria, their ranking will be determined as follows:
d) greatest number of points obtained in the group matches between the teams concerned;
e) goal difference resulting from the group matches between the teams concerned;
f) greater number of goals scored in all group matches between the teams concerned;
g) drawing of lots by the FIFA Organising Committee (who bungs them the most money, I would presume).
Surely they could have come up with a better option g) than drawing lots - goal average, size of willy, penalty shoot out, anything?
Zero, Suarez will destroy us in the next game.
