    Fancy a goal in the Mexico game... and the Germans will surely sneak one past Korea. Don't think these games are ending 0-0 personally.

    So every World Cup when both Portugual and Mexico could neet in the final is this gonna come up until the actually get there
    Could be just a bit of fun Paulie.

    think that should of been a penalty for Sweden. Hernandez controlled the ball with his arm. poor by the ref.

    If Sweden get another one, Germany will need to win by more than 1-0 too wont they?

    Or will that see Mexico go out?

    Actually if Germany score now and win 1-0 (with Sweden 1-0) then Germany are still out on Bookings

    Currently Sweden and Mexico are tied on points, goal difference and goals scored. Sweden are above Mexico based on head to head.

    If Sweden score to win 2-0 another while Germany win 1-0, Mexico would be 3rd on goal difference.

    Jonathan Pearce keeps saying if Germany and Sweden win 1-0 then Sweden win the group and Germany second on goals scored

    Thats not right tho is it
    If both win 1-0 than surely its Mexico and Sweden who go through

    We all know what happens.
    Its like when Arsenal are 0-0 in the 97th min and counting.

    Come on South Korea, just give Sonny boy one decent chance.

    Yeh thats what I thought as Germany are on -5 for Bookings | Sweden are -4 for Bookings and Mexico -3

    Sweden now need to avoid doing anything stupid in terms of fouls as if it goes to lots then you know the jammy Germans will get through

    If both matches end 1-0, all three teams are tied on points, goal difference and goals scored.

    All three teams would have three points in the head to head to head records as well as the same goal difference. Sweden and Germany would both have scored two while Mexico would have scored one.

    So Mexico would finish third on head to head to head goals scored.

    Then Sweden would finish 1st and Germany 2nd based on their fair play records. That is unless they then take away the Mexico results and look purely between Germany and Sweden head to head in which case Germany would win the group with Sweden 2nd.

    The BBC website is saying the same thing, still can't work out why as all 3 would have identical GD and the same number of goals, and each would have 1 win and 1 defeat in the head to heads

    Sweden 2-0 up.

    If Germany win they're through in second, as it stands and Mexico eliminated in third.

    Mexico after all their hard work could go out with 6 points, very tough on them given we've seen sides scraping through with 4 and 5 points.

    I say 'could', i think we all know it'll happen as Germany will definitely nick a winner. It's inevitable.

    If Germany go out then Brazil v Mexico should be a good watch
