So after Round 2 of matches, everyone is still probably wondering who is the favourite to win it ? or has everyone decided whos going to win it, myself I think as of right now the favourite could be France, the only thing I can see a problem of them not winning it is the defence is questionable at times. even though Switzerland scored 2 goals at the end, they had other chances to score during the game that could of made it closer. I think Brazil still looks good its just Mexico played 10 guys behind the ball which is hard to play against always no matter who you are. I think the German/Ghana game showed us a lot about the two teams, one Germany needs a striker. Yes there will be some games when they will score goals with the midfield but realistically they arent going to produce the amount of goals as they did against Portugal. With Ghana they bounced back against a tough lose to USA and showed some discipline, Netherlands looked strong in the second half but looked really bad in the first half against the Aussies, if they can play with urgencies at the start of the game they can go far. Costa Rica great wins but I think they will lose in the round 16 if they meet up with Ivory Coast, same team profile, big, tall , athletic but the Ivorians have more quality I think. Colombia and Chile look strong, fast and quick could see them making the semis.
Here are the current standings as of June 22, 2014 after the second round matches.
