The current group A standings:

Rnk Country        Pts  GD  GF  GA
1. Netherlands      4    2   3   1
2. Ecuador          4    2   3   1
3. Senegal          3    0   3   3
4. Qatar            0   -4   1   5

The Netherlands should advance, Ecuador and Senegal play for the other place.

Torn between Ecuador and Senegal. Going to have to think about who to support on this one. 

I think Senegal beat Ecuador and advances. LOL at Qatar spending all that money just to lose and get humiliated. We can all agree that Qatar is the Texas A&M of the tournament. 

Why in the hell is Netherlands/Qatar on FOX? 

FIFA/Qatari mandate?

Because Fox carries the rights to the games lol 

Seriously though, I'd rather have the Senegal game on Fox and middle eastern aggy game on FS1

In honor of having an aggy school in Doha and for spending multi millions just to be the first eliminated, Qatar is wearing new honorary uniforms today.

Yes. Obviously. 

Wouldn't FOX want the better game on network? 

I guess since Qatar is the host country they get to be on network. 

I wonder if they can flex other match day 3 games or if every game was decided ahead of time. 

I was assuming that the casual international soccer fan knows The Netherlands when compared to Ecuador and Senegal that's my only guess.

 

Vamos Ecuador

That is outstanding! If Qatar wins today(and that's a HUGE IF) will their fans rush the field?

The Dutch are starting their most attacking lineup with Depay and Gakpo up front and De Roon in MF.

This was going to be my thought as well. Name over the better game.

HOLY SHIT THESE GUYS ARE ABOUT TO MAKE HISTORY!

 

Yes.  They are going to get curbstomped 

I'm seeing -115 for 3+ goals for the Dutch.  Think I'm going to take that for sure.  Only getting +780 for a 4-0 exact score final, but I think it could be 5-0 or 6-1 type score, and my site doesn't even have those scores available.

For the most part it is going to be Netherlands and either Ecuador or Senegal. Here are the rough permeutations:

Netherlands - advance with a result against Qatar.

Ecuador - advance with a draw or win vs Senegal. Can advance with a loss and Netherlands loss and getting ahead on tiebreakers (currently down on fair play points)

Senegal - advance with a win vs Ecuador. Can advance with a draw and Netherlands loss and making up GD

Hid a secret, huh?  NYT is a little out over their skis with that one.  Seemed obvious when I first saw them.  I mean there was this at the gold cup in Houston last year:

Someone must have told them adding the Arabic to the tshirts for the World Cup would be more convincing.

Ecuador appears to be ok to defend and counter. They have sprung a few counter attacks that have given them some scoring chances. Nothing yet.

No real shock there. They are probably going to fuck Qatar good to make sure they win the group.

I don't understand who would do that for $20.

Just a reminder Groups A&B are matched up.

Winner A vs 2nd B is in the top bracket

Winner B vs 2nd A is in the bottom bracket.

There was an article in the NYT about this. Qatar paid ultras from the Arab countries like Lebanon to be their fans. Pathetic that FIFA picked a country with no soccer tradition to be host of the world’s most important sporting event.

The Dutch need a good ass-kicking.

And now we have some Ecuador/Senegal drama.

 

That's a foul and penalty.

  • Author

And Senegal scores.

 

44' the teams through (for now) are Netherlands and Senegal.

Edited by Captain Ron

Lions go ahead!

  • Author

Ok, that dive alone makes me want Senegal to make it through.

If you have to import fans and pay folks from other countries to be "fans of your country's team" then you don't deserve to be in another WC or host. 

Has anyone ever seen De Jeong and Joe Burrow in the same room? 

Poor aggy……..errr Qatar. DeJeong with a goal!
