South Korea 2-0 Greece
The Greeks have never scored in the World Cup. That's a damning stat. Otto Rehagel worked wonders in 2004, but Greece look like a one-trick pony. Everyone knows how they're going to play. Defend defend defend, hope to steal a 1-0 lead, then defend defend defend a lot, lot more. Credit to the southern Koreans, an exciting team to watch with no lack of skill. I haven't predicted them to go through from the group, but they're the first team that's made me think, hmm, maybe they could...
