It's 6h55am (Sunday) in Beijing right now. Do the calculation with your current time to find out the time difference. I'm lazy in math too (I'll calculate paris-beijing time difference when I need it).

I have no clue why - we never even talked about it here. I was also looking for Germany and Portugal.

Mystery Solved

They started a round of games the day before Olympics opened:

The official website of the BEIJING 2008 Olympic Games

Aus 1 - 1 Serbia
Japan 0 - 1 USA
Brazil 1 - 0 Belgium
Honduras 0 - 3 Italy
Cote d'Ivoire 1 - 2 Argentina
Netherlands 0 - 0 Nigeria
China 1 - 1 New Zealand
Korea 1 - 1 Cameroon

Today's Results:

Argentina 1 - 0 Australia
Nigeria 2 - 1 Japan
Brazil 5 - 0 New Zealand
Cote d'Ivoire 4-2 Serbia
Cameroon 1 - 0 Honduras
USA 2 - 2 Netherlands
Belgium 2 - 0 China
Italy 3 - 0 Korea

Looks like Brazil, Argentina and Italy are sure for the Qfinals whatever happens on their next game. Anyone surprised?
