I write this with three of the Semi Finalists for the World Cup decided.
And so far, these have matched my predictions in my previous blog. Argentina, Brasil and Germany are through.
Here's hoping for Costa Rica to put it across Netherlands in a few hours, and make my prediction 4 out of 4 successful.
On a separate note, i was asked by several of my friends to put some money on teams, especially as i was bullish on Costa Rica from the very beginning. So far, going by standard rates, i could have made 50 times the money.
I never put any money. This is a lesson from long long ago- as any sport where money comes into the picture, you always lose the joy of sport. You cease enjoying heroics on the field. Monetary calculations override sporting excellence.
With that, its 105 minutes to go for kick-off. And possibly another 90 for Costa Rica to go through.
