Day 13: Neymar...

Neymar definitely delivered yesterday for Brazil! Good on him for sure. Brazil is definitely peaking at the right time! However, this was against a really bad Cameroon team. Netherlands is definitely looking their dominant self. Watch out for Mexico and Chile as underdogs of this tournament!

Today's matches:
Group C:
Selfishly, really need Ivory Coast to win with lots of goals, otherwise if they remain runner-up it messes up my QF in Brazil!! Japan and Greece both have a chance with a win if Ivory Coast loses! Lots of possible outcomes in this group.
> Colombia will take this from Japan in a close match (Zakir says Colombia)
> Ivory Coast should be peaking well so would comfortably take this from Greece (Zakir says Greece)

Group D:
Costa Rica is through so it all depends on what England wants to do in this game. Like Spain they probably want to leave with some dignity. Costa Rica can lose and still be 1st if they dont lose by a lot and if one of Italy and Uruguay wins. However Italy just needs a tie to come through while Uruguay has to win to go through. This will be an epic battle.
> Uruguay will take this from Italy narrowly, this can easily be a tie (Zakir says Italy)
> England will get this one from Costa Rica, however it can easily go as a tie (Zakir says England)
