Yeah, reading that article they have all brought full strength teams and they all appear to want to win it.
At first I thought it was some Mickey Mouse thing where they would all send a team of utter idiots, but it should be a really good tourny.

What about our Tim H, how many clean sheets this season, surely he's better than Casillas or Buffon?

Egypt are dark horses, you heard it here first and you probably heard it here last.
Seriously though, Egypt will make the Semi-Final.

I could see the US pulling an upset against Italy. Italy hasn't been lighting the world on fire since the WC. The US plays well against physical, defensive squads and stood toe to toe with them in the WC group stage match.
Pacy, quick passing teams are the ones that kill the US. I think they'll be in control of their own destiny and will advance with a win in the final game against Egypt. However beating Egypt won't be easy either.
I wonder why Benni McCarthy was left off the S. Africa squad.

It'll be interesting to see how South Africa use Steven Pienaar. He's supposedly going to play as a central midfielder...
Should be a good game, really looking forward to it.
