There is a lot to be determined in Group C, but one thing for sure, Mexico needs a lot of help to advance.

So again we get the worse game on FOX for the first leg. I guess TUN could theoretically advance but they're probably getting their asses kicked. 

Five Thirty Eight has the following projections:

Group C

Argentina 77% chance to advance

Poland 75% chance to advance

Saudi 31% chance to advance

Mexico 17% chance to advance

Two draws would do nicely here.  Poland would move on as group winners and Argentina would qualify in second place. 

Group D

France over 99% chance to win group

Denmark 51% chance to advance

Australia 45% chance to advance

Tunisia 4% chance to advance

France is going to move on as group winners.  Denmark likely moves on with a win against Australia while Australia only needs a draw against Denmark to progress, in each case assuming that goalless Tunisia doesn't somehow beat France.

In any event, it is quite possible that the winner of Netherlands-USA will play the winner of Poland-Australia in the Quarterfinals.

This scenario would also place England, France and Argentina in the same quadrant.

I guess you're saying that's the most likely matchup across USA/Netherlands but it could be several different matchups. 

Edited by ztejas

Poland or Saudi will play Australia in the Round of 16 if (1) Poland ties Argentina and (2) Australia ties or beats Denmark.

These are not the most likely results but certainly not impossible.

France has already secured their spot into the knockout stage. Everyone on the roster who hasn't gotten much playing time gets to play today. 

Of course my client just asked for a 9AM call lasting three hours. 20 people are going to hear me scream when Aussies score. 

Team Dingo all the way today. Danes have one thing. Good cookies. Aussies for the win.

Hey, they have Greenland too.

That's off but this France lineup can be had. This will get sweaty for the other 2 teams if TUN can chase a 2nd goal (although they may need 3?).  

So TUN needs to win and Denmark to win and win by 1 more goal than Denmark. 

For you soccer nerds .. what is the emblem on Tunisian jersey shoulders and right chest, and shorts that looks two naked women sitting back to back?

Put one in Tunisia. 

Also realized they would go through with an AUS/DEN draw and a 1 goal win.

Win and France win/draw puts them through.

Not that there's anything wrong with that...

GROUP D

France has qualified with one game to spare after beating Denmark. They will win the group with a win or draw vs Tunisia, or if Australia does not beat Denmark. If the French lose and Australia wins, goal differential and the subsequent tiebreakers will decide the group winner.

Australia qualifies with a win against Denmark in its last game and is eliminated with a defeat. It also qualifies with a tie unless Tunisia beats France. If the Socceroos draw and Tunisia wins, goal differential will come into play.

Denmark qualifies if it beats Australia, unless Tunisia beats France and wins the tiebreaker.

Tunisia can qualify if it beats France, but only if the other game is either a tie or a Denmark win, in which case it would still need to win a tiebreaker.

watching this france b team, every time i see guendouzi get possession, my brain keeps telling me david luiz is about to do something insane.

I long for the day when America can have a B Team that plays in a World Cup game that means nothing as to whether, or not, the team advances.

Is it me, or does France look like their backups are just fucking with Tunisia?

It looks like their backups are getting beat and lucky to not be down at half. 

Keep in mind when a team like England or France plays it's 2nd team those guys are playing for PT. They're almost less likely to not play hard.

Agreed, but they do need to turn it up a bit.

France's back up team is still wearing the best uniform of the tournament. Then or Ghana. 

Okay well that was lazy by France on that Coman run.

I gather the Chicken is the national symbol since a white flag might offend chickens everywhere?

There it is!

Awful defending from the Cocks.
