Noting that he got an easy group, Xtr3me3 wrote on his blog, “The real test will come in Top 16 when i meet 2005 runner up and Russian champion, [img]http://www.gamesync.net/img/flags/flag_ru.gif[/img] NoA_Alex, or Ukraine champion, [img]http://www.gamesync.net/img/flags/flag_ua.gif[/img] NoA_Mika or Romania champion, [img]http://www.gamesync.net/img/flags/flag_ro.gif[/img] NoA_yZw. All these 3 players are tough to beat. Currently the best clan in the world for FIFA.”

In [i]DoA 4[/i], Tetra, thought to be Singapore’s best medal hope for WCG 2007, placed 3rd in Group A and missed out on qualifying for the playoffs.[list]
