I'm not going to South Africa. So instead I'm gonna try and watch a bit if not all of every game at work, or at home or in a bar or wherever. On the telly. With a beer. And I'm gonna predict who I think is gonna win. And talk about football stuff. So there.

20th: DENMARK

It all came down to the last game against Japan. And Japan outplayed them. Kicking off against the Dutch was always going to leave the Danes chasing the rest of the group and so it proved. They don't really have any stars, the likes of the Laudrup brothers long since retired. And it's hard to say the Danes set the tournament alight in any way, even though their last game against the Japanese was pretty good. To spend all that time qualifying, then to put in a hat-trick of average performances makes you wonder if it was all worthwhile.
