Round of 16 discussion: Paraguay vs Japan

[Point forward]

Two sturdy dark horse teams with solid D, who will prevail?

[Foye]

Japan played well against Denmark today but I still think it's Paraguay's game to lose.

[magik9113]

I expect Japan to put up a good fight. Paraguay by a goal..maybe two

[hondaaccord]

Man, who would have though I would be picking Japan to win an elimination game when the tournament started. But Japan has excellent set play skills.

[CPT]

Really don't want Japan to advance further than South Korea, and I don't think they will. I'd be surprised if they put up as good of a fight either.

[treiz]

I'm actually going to root for Japan to win this one.

[AdamTheGreek]

2-1 Japan, IMO. Honda and Endo will have their fun again.

[and1GS]

I'm going with Paraguay, I like their defense and...I haven't seen Japan play at this WC.

[5DOM]

Looks like first low quality game in the knockout stage

[Foye]

Yes, poor game so far.

[magik9113]

I have hardly payed attention to the game....Penalty shootout can't come soon enough

[AdamTheGreek]

Penalty shootout is needed in this one.

Half hour of extra time, each team has a sub.

[Lionel Messi]

Tempo has picked up a bit in extra time.

[britblazerdude]

I love the Japanese crest. Awesome stuff. Looks destined for penalties, this one.

[pass first]

De Bleeckere you moron!

[AdamTheGreek]

Endo out for the Final 8 if Japan advances. 115th, both teams seem ready for penalty kicks.

[britblazerdude]

This official is useless

[AdamTheGreek]

YES! Penalty kicks.

[britblazerdude]

OH BABY!!!!!1
