It's pretty amazing how the World Cup bracket shaped up.
It ended up almost completely regional. South America is in one corner. Europe and Africa is in the next. Europe and CONCACAF is in the third and the fourth is a mutt of Europe, North America, and South America. I'm not sure what the odds of that happening are.
People are calling the South American bracket a "mini Copa America." The only hope for an all South American final is Argentina getting through. And the best hope to knock off Brazil is probably Germany, though young Colombia is no pushover.
