World Cup Round 3 Update

Round 3 is over, on to the knockout round of 16. Let's review.
Germany will take on Sweden. This game should show whether or not Germany is for real. I'm pinning my hopes on them, and I think they will do well if they continue to attack. Ballack to Klose, baby!
Argentina plays Mexico. As I said before, no contest here. Argentina is too good.
England plays Ecuador. Dangerous game for England here. They're playing without Michael Owen, and they haven't shown a lot of scoring prowess yet. If they're not careful, they could go home early.
Portugal takes on Netherlands. I've still got Netherlands as my #2 pick, but Portugal has played well.
Italy will crush Australia. I think. Never know with those Socceroos.
Brazil should get past Ghana if they play the way they did against Japan. Finally they showed some good agressive play against an inferior opponent.
Spain let up a little bit today against Saudi Arabia, resting their regular starters in a meaningless game. They should get past France, who certainly don't deserve to be in this round, to face Brazil in the quarterfinals.
Ukraine played horribly against Tunisia, who deserved a win but were deprived by a missed hand ball call, and a poor penalty kick call against them. Switzerland aren't much better at this point though, and this game will not be pretty.
With the way Italy has played so far, and with England's key injury, I'm tempted to swap in Italy in my predictions (especially since Italy practically has a free pass to the semifinals), but I'll stick with what I've said all along: Brazil, Netherlands, Spain, Argentina, Germany, England (unbelievably, they're all still in it!). There are going to be some very good quarterfinal matchups if they work out: Argentina-Germany, England-Netherlands, Spain-Brazil. Keep watching, even though the US is out. The real soccer powers are about to put on a show.
