that Brazil game was so boring, i liked the changes in the team, Cunha was great, and Vini as always being the protagonist, but after the third goal nothing else happened.
Qualify doesn't seem to be a problem anymore, just a game against Scotland, we should finish first on the group, its the knockout round that worries me
... Is there honestly a true Group of death this round?
With 8 out of 12 third-place teams also advancing...there's not supposed to be. But Turkey just found out what can happen if you manage to lose against the supposed biggest underdog in your group.
They've really messed it up changing the deciding factor to head to head rather than goals scored;
now with more games than ever, so many of them are going to be pointless.
@Tasuki I can't think of any time where a team won their first game 5v1, then lost their next one 1v5. It might be difficult for them to qualify even in third now, as I imagine Japan will be going for a big win to try and win the group on goal difference. Although with Netherlands playing Tunisia, that will be unlikely.
1st and 2nd from this group plays 2nd and first from the Brazil group. From Netherlands and Japans perspective, they've got a difficult last 32 tie either way. Unless Scotland somehow finishes 2nd.
