South Korea with 3 points and a -1 goal diff might have them not advancing. They are going to really have to push for one here.

Well this is a surprise
Scotland (and probably some other countries TBD over next few days) need a Korea goal

SK has way too much talent to look this bad.

They look like they came in just hoping for a point. South Africa have been better all night.

What about 3 points and a -3 goal diff? Asking for a (Scottish) friend.

South Korea even being down 1-0 right now is like 4th or 5th place in the 3rd place standings out of 12.

South Africa would be Canada if the results hold

Scotland currently sits 7th of 12 teams in the 3rd place pool. They have the worst standing of all the teams with 3 points. 8 of the 12 advance.

If Ecuador or Curacao win they'll likely jump into the 3rd place standings with 4 points

Belgium/NZ winner will advance with a win.
Australia beating Parguay would likely knock Parguay out due to GD.

One of the things I don't like about the unbalanced RO32 bracket is two 2nd placed teams playing each other

I hate rewarding shite groups - Group A and B are shite groups

And we'd get SK in Round of 16 assuming we beat Bosnia and they beat Egypt

I noticed this. Very weird set up.

I feel bad for Japan who has looked really good in a very hard group but will probably end up playing Brazil in the first knockout.
