Also like Italy -.5.

Italy beats Egypt by a goal.

Brazil - 2 USA - 0
Italy - 2 Egypt -1

2-0 Brazil.

We can start with that miracle by FIRING BOB BRADLEY and cutting Beasely.

I hope you're kidding. All the younger guys ARE playing BECAUSE of Bradley. Altidore, Bradley, Kljestan, Spector, Demerit, Clark, Edu (when healthy), etc. are all guys that Bradley has capped. Thanks for your brilliant insight though.

He's made some tactical mistakes against two of the best teams in the world... but has done a ton to bring younger guys into the squad and develop US soccer.

A lot of people have been calling for Bradley's head recently. I took it as you were following suit. My mistake.

All good. You taking Italy -.5 this afternoon? Hope you were on Brazil?

Liked Brazil but didn't bet it. I'm going to be heavy on Egypt if Rossi isn't starting for Italy. Egypt is the better team. Italy showed 10 minutes of brilliance against an exhausted US team. Egypt competed for 90 minutes and controlled the run of play against one of the best teams in the world. Italy's set pieces aren't nearly as good as Brazil's and I could see the ref letting some fouls go anyway.

Interesting. What think about the O/U 2.5?

over sonds tempting but no way my money will be on egypt. italians will win this one 3-1

**sportsguy04** · 06-18-09, 10:36 AM

Cashed on Brazil -1.5.

Italy -.5 for me. Egypt surprised people vs. Brazil, however I believe Italy covers this by winning: 2-1.
