Group B
Greece 0-0 Mexico
Japan 2-2 Brazil

So, the Semi-Finals will be: Argentina .v. Mexico and Brazil .v. Germany. If I was a betting man, I'd go for an all South American Final.

Brazil through! Woohoo, Go Adriano, fantastic display.

A quiet summer with a summer break concerning Football ...

... not!

The referee wasn't a very good one. He gave two penalties from which I wasn't sure if it was a real one. I'd say Argentina will win against Mexico tonight, but I don't see them stopping Brazil.

Dida - Cicinho - Lucio - Roque Junior - Gilberto - Emerson - Ronaldinho - Kaka - Ze Roberto - Adriano - Robinho

They don't have Ronaldo, Roberto Calos and Cafu and their bench isn't bad either. WC 2006 will be theirs?

Its Brazil v Argentina!

Argentina will meet Brazil in Wednesday's FIFA Confederations Cup final after beating Mexico on penalties after a 1-1 draw in their semi-final in the Stadion Hannover on Sunday 26 June 2005

I was 100% supporting Mexico. Argentina didn't play sportive and 3 players should have gotten a big red card. Saviola did get a red card though.

Coloccini and Riquelme's fouls didn't have anything to do with Football either.

What was Saviola sent off for? I heard this result and thought wow what happened there.

Check out this article. It's a good way to get informed on the match.

This afternoon I heard something interesting/surprising about the Final tonight. If it's a draw after 90 minutes (0-0, 1-1, 2-2 or more), no extra time will be played. The penalties will instantly decide who's the winner of this CC edition.

Did you all know that and has this happen before?

Germany have clinched the third place of the FIFA Confederations Cup, beating Mexico 4-3 after extra time to give the home crowd a reason to celebrate.

Brazil winning 3-0 so far with goals from Adriano, Kaka and Ronaldinho

Confederations Cup Final:
Brazil 4-1 Argentina

Where was Argentina? What were Argentina doing? Brazil played one of their best matches against Argentina in years. This was a good revenge for the WC Qualification match in which Brazil lost with 3-1.

Brazil played fantastic, amazing, awesome, superb. When you've seen the match, you know I'm not exaggerating.

If Holland and Brazil meet each other at the WC next year and they play like they did yesterday, I'll be supporting Brazil!
