Group E: Spain, Costa Rica, Germany, Japan

[Drico]

Maybe this convince Herr Flick to play with real striker from the start and not Muller

Exactly.

 

[stipe]

If it stays like this Germany need to beat Costa Rica as biggest difference possible and hope for Japan not to beat Spain

Group still tantalisingly in the balance here

If Japan and Costa Rica can both pull off miracles then Germany and Spain are out

won't happen like, but it's nice that there's still something up for grabs in round 3

 

[Rita_Poon]

That is a set of close calls right there...

 

[USABlue]

Great tackle

Spain will need a point to qualify - so I can't see Japan beating them. Assuming a 0-0 draw, Germany will need a 1-0 win to qualify. If Japan draw 1-1, Germany need a 2-1 win.

Great tackle

Thank you.

 

[Billy Dean]

Germany have run their knackers off here tbf

 

[allen]

Japan muffed this up so badly today. A draw and they were through, instead they change half their team and capitulate.

There’s no way Spain and Germany don’t win their third games and go through.

If you were Spain and this ends even tonight, you'd want to let Japan win the last game to see Germany out of the WC.

Lol how are Japan going to beat Spain

 

[USABlue]

Needed to center that

 

[Azza]

Should have had a shot.

 

[Rita_Poon]

They've tried at the German left back repeatedly, and he's come out tops every time.

 

[Drico]

Classic Sane. All show, no blow.
