It's day 2 of OTB's World Cup of Pundits, and the big news from the opening round is a big Irish scalp of Rio Ferdinand in the last 32.
Friend of OTB Kenny Cunningham claimed second place in Group A, taking 14.7 percent of the vote, shading out BT's Rio, although there was no touching Eoin Sheahan's early overall favourite Jamie Carragher.

There were no other major opening round shocks, with heavyweights Gary Neville, Roy Keane, Graeme Souness and Micah Richards, although Damien Delaney and Kevin Doyle did fight their way to the last 16 with second place finishes in their groups.
The round of 16 is already underway, with one big clash of former Republic of Ireland captains.
Can Kenny Cunningham cause a shock against the man he replaced as Irish captain, Roy Keane?
And Damien Delaney will need to a big pick up if he's to dump Carragher out in the round of 16?
