    Portugal - Switzerland has the potential to go into extra time and penalties.

    England - France has that feel to it too.

    Yes... it has the potential to be the most boring 2nd round game after England-Senegal

    England - France has that feel to it too.

    Hopefully not!

    I was thinking England - France has the potential to be a high scoring draw wheras Portugal - Switzerland could be a tighter game.

    With English tight defense, I seriously doubt that... the French defense was a bit shaky against Poland. England might win this. They are a bit more organized. They are boring and French are more talented but its not the most entertaining team that
    always win these contests especially in the latter rounds.

    Portugal-Switzerland would only be tight because they both will play defensively and tentatively. There is high chance that this game might be more high scoring.

    Japan-Croatia.

    Going back to Euro 2008, out of seven knock-out matches Croatia played in tournaments, only the World Cup final didn't go to extra time.

    Good guess, after first half I thought they'd finish us off in
    the 2nd.

    And Japan played like they have never been involved in shoot-outs... terrible penalties.

    It was one of the worst PK displays I have ever seen in a major competition. Shooters either go for deception, or power, or placement. 3 of their shooters went for none of the above.

    Werner knows hiS Croatians and correctly predicts it.

    Not guessed, maybe implied, but let's give it to Werner too.
