World Cup

[Oblomov22]

So irrespective of views. Here we are. First March. Qatar v Ecuador. 1 goal.

and again Rom.

Does Lukaku not want to score? It wouldn't have been a goal but still

That's it, Belgium is out.

Croatia and Morocco through

All those chances and still couldn't score.

Really disappointed with Belgium

I kind of expected this from Belgium but hoped they would prove me wrong

Right. Germany up soon.

I think Germany might squeeze though.

Noooooooo, I dont want Japan to go out.

Neither do I 🇯🇵

Japan 2-1 up now

Come on Japan!!

Costa Rica scores!

And again! Come on Costa Rica!!!!

Shit, I go to sort out some work and all this happens. Come on Japan

No! Germany levels

So currently Spain and Germany are going home. I'm sure it won't stay like that but ...

It's back to Japan and Spain

Still baffled by Japan's second goal being allowed to stand. That ball looked fully out. What have they seen in the VAR room that made them make that decision? I wish they had shown more takes on TV rather than the referee's ugly mug.

Haven't seen that Japan goal yet.

Germany is back in the lead again, the are relying on Spain to equalise

Agreed.

Well that was mad and exciting.
Japan and Spain through and Germany is on the plane home.

Crazy that Spains progression was dependant on Germany. Feel for Costa Rica, they must have felt on top of the world when they were ahead.

I can’t remember the last World Cup with as many surprise (shock, even!) results in the group stage as this one. All bets off for the second round results?!

Can they decide the ball was actually out and put Germany through or is the decision in the game final?

Actually seeing this I think it was the right call. Still in place by about half a millimetre.
