Fifa World Cup Russia 2018

Spain didn't have a plan B to penetrate an ultra defensive Iranian team.

What is the situation if two teams finish level on points at the group stage in Russia?
Each team plays one match against each of the other teams in the four-team group with three points for a win, one for a draw and none for a loss.

Who finishes above who will be decided by goal difference, not their head-to-head record.

If that is not conclusive then the greatest number of goals scored will decide.

Phil Neville said today that all Uruguay want to do is to progress further than they have ever done before :ohmy:

They have only won the World Cup twice :woohoo: oh dear, and he gets around £40k every time he pundits

After watching the first round matches, I don't think any country has put their hands up as the potential winner. For me, there has not been a wow performance from anyone.

This World Cup the gap has closed between the perennial stronger nations and the minnows. I have taken Mexico at 33/1 and Senegal at 80/1 to win the World Cup.

I think that the so called big teams get stronger as the month progresses. All be big sides have made average starts but when the knock out stage comes around they turn up. It would be great if Mexico wins it, then they can give Trump the finger big time.

Croatia has to choose to play a defensive game to stay at the top of the table
good odds if they can catch the South Americans with a counterattack

Some of the refreeing is shocking

The Argentine goalkeeper, what was he thinking? well taken goal though
