Doesn't really feel like a R16 game. Even more bizarre that one of these two will end up in a World Cup QF.

If we see the Greece that deservedly won against Ivory Coast where they counter attacked and hit the woodwork a few times then it could be a decent game. But it is Greece!

I hope to be pleasantly surprised by a 7 goal thriller. My glass is half full today.

Just had a thought, one of ITV's channels broke down some time ago this evening, and they showed a totally different program to the one advertised, and hope same thing doesn't happen here, as I want to see this match ITV!

Samaras is abysmal. One of the worst strikers I can recall watching play.

I'd like to see Costa Rica emerge victorious but as in the Ivory Coast group game it wouldn't surprise me one iota if the Greeks do just enough to progress.

Trust me strange teams getting into the QF is not a biggie in the WC.
We've had Cameroon, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Romania, South Korea, Turkey, Bulgaria and even Ireland make QF appearances. It's the Semifinals you've gotta worry about. |

The Greek manager looked like he was about to fall asleep, and that was just the anthems.

I don't like the ads before the match it takes away the atmosphere! I know they have to make money but...

I'd like the Costa Rican's to win, but I also wanted the Mexicans to beat the Dutch, so the Greeks will probably run away with this now.....

Already a few decent breaks for CR. They just need better quality at the business end.

I hope for an early goal by Costa Rica, otherwise I fear Greece will adopt the tactic of boring the opposition into submission.

![]() Costa Rica have only let one goal in the tournament so far, so that's a good sign. They've scored more goals than Greece too. So there's things to be positive about if you're rooting for Costa Rica. |

What I hope is that if CR get a goal, they don't do what the Mexicans did and switch off totally....
