I just studied the brackets and found something interesting. Argentina has a good incentive to try tomorrow. If they win, they most likely avoid Germany in the knockout stage (assuming Germany wins Group G, which is not a lock). Here is Argentina's most likely path to the World Cup Semifinals:

Bosnia
Iran
Nigeria
Ecuador
Belgium

Not exactly a list of global soccer powers!

Suarez has been suspended twice for biting previously, he should be banned for such grotesque unsportsmanlike behavior. The guy has some real issues he needs help with. What an embarrassment to Uruguay, they should ban him themselves.
