Holland (Billy) have booked their place in the quarter finals with a win over Slovakia (Matt), this now eliminates Matt so we are down to 9 people

Thats the end of Jenny's involvement in the sweepstake so that leaves us with the final 8 players
Dale - Uruguay, Portugal
Chris - Japan, Spain
Pete - Germany
Mike - Argentina
Jon Pride - Ghana
Billy - Netherlands
Callum - Paraguay
Tom - Brazil
Tomorrow will be Chris's make or break day, first up it will be Japan vs Callum's Paraguay and then Spain vs my Portugal.
By end of tomorrow either Callum will be eliminated, I will lose one of my teams or Chris could be out if both his teams lose

Paraguay (Callum) Vs Japan (Chris), this one is a snoozefest and probably the worst game in the World Cup to date, it is now going to extra time, yay

And Callums Paraguay have beaten Chris's Japan 5-3 on penalties which means that Callum gets a team in the Quarter Final and Chris loses his first team, will he be completely out later with a loss of Spain against Portugal or will I be down to 1 team as well, we shall see

Spain are the last team into the quarter finals which means I lose a team and all eight people that are left have one team left each and they are as follows
Uruguay (Dale) Vs Ghana (Jon Pride)
Netherlands (Billy) Vs Brazil (Tom)
Spain (Chris) Vs Paraguay (Callum)
Argentina (Mike) Vs Germany (Pete)
Winners of these games now will get a chance at the money, the losers, unfortunatly it will be the end of the road

No European team has ever won the Cup outside of Europe... and South America continues to dominate (none of them have lost yet).

A South American team in each tie! It's getting interesting...

Tom's interest has ended now in the sweepstake after Brazil were beaten by Billy's Holland so we are now down to the last 7 players
Tonight will be either myself or Jon Pride going through when Uruguay take on Ghana

Jon Pride's Ghana are out on a penalty shoot out 4-2, which means my Uruguay team are through and will now meet Billy's Holland in the Semi Final are will now have a crack at some money.
Tomorrow will see Mike's Argentina Vs Pete's Germany and Chris's Spain Vs Callums Paraguay for the last two places in the Semi Finals

&
Germany (Pete) Vs Spain (Chris) (Wednesday)

Dale must have connections very high in the Uruguayan government/FIFA organisation.
