Final

Brazil vs Mexico/Japan

[Sharkie]

Brazil and Great Britain will make the finals. Brazil is too strong and talented to lose but in the world of football, you just never know.

[Camran khan]

I want South Korea, Japan, Brazil and Mexico in the next round!

[Kaveh Ahangar]

My money would be on Senegal to take the Gold. They look like a strong team in every sense.

[Ghermez Agha]

^ me too, I'm liking Senegal to take gold they've been playing well.

They have history on their side too. African teams have fared very well in this competition, Nigeria won it in Atlanta 1996 and Cameroon won in Sydney 2000.

Absolutely. As much as teams like UAE and Saudi Arabia have brought disgrace and shame to Asia in the past decade, Japan/Korea have helped instil some pride in the continent's football.
