The World Cup begins on Friday. Having lived in Europe off and on for almost 10 years, I know that football is King here! The people here do love their football.
So, who is your favorite team? Of course, I will be “rooting” for the US team, however, I realize their prospects are slim. Brazil and Argentina are always favorites. I do believe that the US team has a good chance of making it to the second round. It will be interesting to see how they play against England.
Here are my picks for each Group:
A: France; B: Argentina; C: England; D: Germany; E: Nederlands; F: Italy; G: Brazil; H: Spain
I don’t think I am ready to go out on a limb to pick a winner yet. Let’s get through the first round and see what happens!
