I'm surprised they're both taking risks aren't they both through if they draw and will meet either Belgium or England.

93rd minute Shinji diving header for a 3-2 Japan win would be nice !!!

 

Got a score draw on with bookies so teams settling for a draw would do me nicely!!

No, If one of Poland or Colombia win their last 2 games, one of these 2 will be out. Also if POL-COL draw and then both win their last games, all teams would finish on 4pts and it will go to GD.

 

That said, draw puts them in a strong position admittedly and keeps it in both teams hands..

Ah I'd forgotten those 2 have to play each other.

When Oka smiles, the whole world smiles with him!

Well done to the samurais, they were the better team, and made the game entertaining to watch. The only downside is, next game Shinji and his pals will make sushi out of my slow fishy Poland.... As the Japanese say: Fuchs sake!!!!

That was a good match.

Any chance of a Shinji vs Vardy & Maguire face off in the knockout round ?

 No pens in this game, or even a review for one, shocking

I love Japan but they labored 85mins against 10 man Columbia, lack physicality, aggression & pace.

 

Also have Eng-Sen-Col treble on today

 

Welp. Thanks keeps. Maybe I should stop just giving money away, eh

We win our group we play the team second in this group (Senegal currently), we finish second we play the winners of this group (Japan currently).

 

So yes, there is every chance as it stands!

Wrong thread.

Enjoyable match, loving Group H as a whole.

 

My neighbour's have had a good afternoon, England to start then Japan, I could do with soundproof walls.

Fantastic. Never seen an entire team offside before

[brucey]

Great example of the famed Shinji assist, keeping opponents preoccupied allowing someone else to score
