In the SportsFilter World Cup Pickem, bender is the new leader at 165 with geneparmesan 4 points back and three other players 10 back. Make your picks in the comments.
I picked Johan Djourou to get a card when England played Sweden. This would have been an achievement for the ages, because he plays for Switzerland.

1. For the semifinals, pick the winners of these games (8 points each):
France vs. Belgium
England vs. Croatia
2. Pick the score in each game, not including penalty kicks (5 points minus 1 for each goal off the correct score, so predicting an England win of 3-2 for a game that England wins 2-0 is worth 2 points).
3. Pick a player in each game and get 2 points for each goal he scores.
4. Pick a player in each game and get 2 points for each yellow card he receives or 5 points for a straight red card.at ended 2-1 is worth 3 points).
