Argentina, with a 16-3 difference, has the best ratio. Boasting forwards Adriano and Robert, with five nettings apiece, Brazil has strolled past Germany (2-0), Iraq (6-1), Canada (2-0) and Australia (4-0). Ghana, meanwhile, topped its group beating Paraguay and Iran while tying France before squeezing past Ecuador 1-0 in the second round. Either Brazil or Ghana will proceed to challenge Egypt or the Netherlands, who battle it out in Rosario.
