Japan 2nd would really make it worth finishing top.

Or does this mean Colombia are second as it stands?

 

[tiger666]

Japan out as it stands

 

[Streetspur77]

Worst case scenario is both of these teams going through, would rather not face either of them

Pat Nevin is a fucking joke of a human being. How he has a job as a pundit I will never know.

Ffs Japan...

Colombia are a totally different and predictable side without James though, no reason to fear them.

Yeah we should beat both anyway but I’d just much rather play Japan

That was wild from the Senegal keeper! Got the ball but followed through hard.

Goalkeepers can get away with murder if they get the ball. It's a really strange part of football that is 100% culture and has no support in the laws. But had the ref given a PK there, he would have been destroyed.

Scenes

 

[Setzthree]

Japan goes through if this stands?

 

[Marty]

What a header! Mina is a bit rash but what an aerial threat.

 

[tiger666]

Also worst goal celebration ever

 

[DFF]

Japan second as it stands

 

[cwy21]

Japan through on fair play as it stands.

 

[Marty]

Japan goes through if this stands?

Yes, Senegal out on, get this, worse discipline as it stands. GD, goals scored, H2H all equal with Japan.

 

[fortworthspur]

Japan goes through if this stands?

yup

 

[Marty]

I really want a goal, doesn't matter which match, just so fair play won't be the tiebreaker.

 

[tiger666]

Cracking game this

 

[fortworthspur]

I freakin' love the third games of group stage. 4 days of great drama.
