Expected semifinal line up.
Portugal vs Chile and Germany vs Mexico, I always go with all European final, hopefully the final will be as like as I want. I can bet Portugal and Germany will be qualified for the final, and Portugal will get champion first time ever...

I hope so too, to see an all European final. Our teams are better compared to Latin America most of the time but I am a bit afraid of Chile who may be a surprise for all of us and qualify for the final. After all they have the quality players to do that and Portugal was never known for having a good defense, they have always conceded goals even to weaker teams compared with Chile.

Can anyone explain to me how the referee in the Germany and Cameroon game gave two red cards to two different players for the same offences and he didn't even come out to explain his action afterwards.

The only player who kicked off with a red card was No. 2 of Cameroon - Ernest Mabouka.
The referee made a mistake, then he checked in the video and corrected his mistake.
At the end only one player came off.

I guess the Colombian referee mixed between two look-alike players.

if seeing the teams who able to the semifinal match i think possibly to makes all european final is pretty high because even Chille and Mexico are not the weak teams but Portugal and Germany still the best and for upcoming semifinal match maybe i would considering to pick Portugal and Germany ML as my parlay

I beg to differ but rather think Chile is going to eliminate Portugal at the semi finals and Germany will rather have an easy one against Mexico so it might not be an all European final like you're predicting. I see it differently.

I think Portugal against Chile is the most interesting game we could asked,
The European champions against the South American.
In my opinion, the winner in this match will win the trophy, beating Germany in the final.

My heart goes with Chile, but the odds are with Portugal...

Chile all the way!

I would not be surprised if Germany is beaten at the final by whichever of the 2 teams you mention. I would not be surprised because Germany squad has mainly taken young players and is using this confederations cup as a test for them to see which one is suited to be part of the main squad. Portugal and Chile has gotten in this tournament some of their best players so that makes a difference. If Germany was to have the full team here, no other team can beat them.

final germany vs portugal
portugal win win meet chilie, and germany although younger team can easy win meet mexico

germany still can chanhe win in fifa conferdartion but not big chance
portugal play with full team include chistiano ronaldo, germany without big start(thomas muller, oziel, and more), only younger team low international match experience so very dificult win meet portugal

indeed if we see from statistics for each teams Germany and Portugal are deserve to the final match but during the participant for european teams they had bad record when they met Latina teams even the teams who came from this continent already dominate 3 times in a row and on the previous tournament Spain cannot defeat Brazil on the final match and i think Portugal and Germany have to thinking these factor too

Portugal vs Chile : Portugal easily qualified first in the group A of Confederations Cup they started rough against Mexico but later they had 2 wins and now they will be having a difficult game against Xhile the semi finals. On the other hand Chile is South American champion and won Copa America in 2 consecutive years, so they are very good side which knows how to play in knock out games and the last meeting between those two ended with 1-1. Now, Portugal are in good form with strong performance in defense and 2 consecutive clean sheets and Chile knows how to do it right so i expect and under 2.5 goals in the game

A series of trust
Vidal is confident of winning Real Madrid and the result was 6-3 for Real
Vidal is confident of a win over Portugal and the result will be catastrophic
The problem is that Ronaldo will beat you

[TrissMerigold]

did u see latest news guys ? arturo vidal is mad as fuck to ronaldo , he said ronaldo is suck and didnt exist lol , vidal still so salty after got destroyed by madrid on UCL also he get red card probably caused him to face ronaldo with anger lmao , but still chile is tough opponent they got alexis sanchez , gary medel , claudio bravo as well , but still im cheering for portugal

[buwaytress]

You know, it's these types of matches that make me gamble so foolishly. Perhaps a parlay on Mexico (29/10 on 888sport) and Chile (11/5 on most places) are just too difficult but this will see me split a bet 60% Portugal (4/6) 20% Germany (11/10)and 20% the opposite parlay. Yes, I only have faith in Portugal!

Great to see this fixture in semi final, Now there is a chance for Portugal vs Germany, which I wanted.
Anyway Chile has similar chances, but Portugal is playing superbly. I will go for Portugal in the First semi-final match between,  Portugal vs Chile.

Germany is not investing in this competition, they don't have their first time so I'm not sure they will be able to beat Mexico. Even if they do it, and assuming Portugal will win vs Chile and go to the Final, I don't think they can then beat Portugal, so I guess Portugal will win this for the first time.

The fans of football will be heading towards the World Cup of the continents currently in Russia to follow the first semi-final between Portugal and Chile and of course the confrontation will go to the conflict between Ronaldo and Alexis.

I agree with you on this point, I strongly believe that Portugal is clearly favorite of the first semifinal, I also consider that Chile is the strongest opponent but Ronaldo is there, who can only make an impact of this game, also there are some important players. So I want to see Portugal the winner...

[BitcoinSupremo]

For the game Portugal vs Chile I predict a good both teams to score YES to happen in this game. I think it will be a fairly easy win as both teams are well known for their attacking style of play and both teams are not good at defending. Odd seems like a reasonable one placed at 1.75 but may go down as we approach the game so it is a perfect odd right now to catch.

I agree with you, Chile vs Portugal is the anticipated final of this tournament.
I am convinced who will win this game, will also win the tournament.
I expect a balanced game, it may even end in extra time or penalty kick

Are you saying just because Germany has a young team they will get beaten?? I think the team is more than capable to go all the way and win the competition and a matter of fact its a good way to build a next gen team.
One team that stands in Germany's way and has a high pedigree is  definitely Chile and should not be written off easily.
