Mario Yepes (Defender for Colombia) vs. Graham Zusi (Midfielder for U.S.)The Match: Graham gets bonus style points for the headband and for the fact that he always plays with his hair up in a fun and festive bun. Then again, as we've said before, we can never get enough of Mario's 'stripper Jesus' vibe...
Winner: Graham.
Glen Johnson (Defender for England) vs. Jerry Bengtson (Forward for Honduras)The Match: Glen is the first man we've ever been attracted to whose name is Glen. Same for Jerry.
Winner: Glen. (C'mon.)
Cristiano Ronaldo (Forward for Portugal) vs. Eduardo (Forward for Croatia)The Match: Both these dudes look like the types who would send unsolicited dick pics but, still, Eduardo at least doesn't have a look straight from the garbage bins of 2004. (And besides, we're still a little bitter about that Portugal game.)
Winner: Eduardo.
Carl Medjani (Defender for Algeria) vs. Claudio Marchisio (Midfielder for Italy)The Match: Carl's cheekbones just don't quit but Claudio's eyes are like the crystalline teardrops of angels.
Winner: Claudio.
Ehsan Hajsafi (Midfielder for Iran) vs. Gabriel Achilier (Defender for Ecuador)The Match: Though he's had questionable facial hair and wears sunglasses on airplanes, there's something about Gabriel that speaks to us.
Winner: Gabriel.
Francisco Rodriguez (Defender for Mexico) vs. Robin Van Persie (Forward for the Netherlands)The Match: When there's a silver fox in the mix, ain't nobody got a chance. Team Salt 'n' Pepa.
Winner: Robin.
Panagiotis Kone (Midfielder for Greece) vs. Tino Sven Susic (Midfielder for Bosnia and Herzegovina)The Match: Tino's a boy next door but Panagiotis is a MAN next door. You know what we mean.
Winner: Panagiotis.
Manuel Neuer (Goalkeeper for Germany) vs. Park Chu-young (Forward for Korea)The Match: We love a baby face like Manuel's but there's something about him that makes he think he has a pair of 'dress Rainbow flip flops.' We're not about that life.
Winner: Park.
