At work recently we did a sweepstake, everyone puts $10 in and the winner gets $240 while runner up getting the rest. When i first drew NZ out of the hat everyone laughed and felt sympathetic. Today, I stand proud and im going to laugh out loud, because it will be the last laugh. Take THAT! NZ finished 2nd last with equal amounts of points with slovakia, only losing by goal count. Italy on the other hand was downright last with 1 point! Not to mention Italy got lucky against NZ, scoring only from penalty (false call may I add).
NZ, a team worth only 15 million dollars produced valiant displays against formidable opponents. Italy on the other hand, having a team worth 250 million, lost twice and drew once. Not to mention the majority of their players are worth over 20 million individually (thats more than NZ team total already).
I Still havent forgotten how Italy cheated their way through against Australia last world cup, so their loss is my joy!! Muahahaha
For now, go PORTUGAL!!!! and Argentina!
