Does Olympic soccer interest you?

Interesting story-lines and match-ups abound in Olympic soccer. To see young talent blossoming and identified is interesting. Are you interested and have you been following the tournament?

Here are the match-ups for Olympic soccer in knock-out phase:

MENS

Great Britain/Korea

Brazil/Honduras

*Winner’s of above matches meet in semi-finals.

Mexico/Senegal

Japan/Egypt

*Winner’s above matches meet in semi-finals.

WOMEN

Great Britain/Canada

USA /NZ

Sweden/France

Brazil/Japan

Some tremendous match ups on both the men’s and women’s side.

Still can’t see the U.S. women losing unless it is self-inflicted through a poor performance.

On the men’s side Brazil is the clear favorite, Senegal will be very difficult for Mexico and I can see El Tri having real problems against them if they can’t get their possession game established.
Team GB on both sides has the passion of large crowds behind them and they have lived up to the moment so far.
