England/France/Spain all on one side of the bracket.
Argentina/Brazil on our side. Netherlands R16, Argentina, R8, Brazil Semis. If being optimistic, that's our road to the finals. |

They may have been mistaken thinking Spain was in peril, or they may have implicitly meant that Spain had to equalize for Germany's win to mean anything for THEM.

Japan is racist country. Every single player and coach is of the same race
![]() That country has to have the most homogeneous population of any large country in the world It's just kind of strange. |

So the real question is. Did Spain throw so they could get Morocco in the Round of 16 and avoid Brazil in Quarters?
![]() Only way on their side of the bracket they face France or England is if they make it to semi's. Very Likely Spains path to the semi's is Morrocco, and Portugal.... |

So is Germany being eliminated as surprising as I think it is? Because I feel like Germany's pretty much always good.

Chances of Australia beating Argentina - perhaps you can illustrate this to me as an NCAA Basketball tournament upset. Is that like a 15 beating a 2 or something?

Yeah TBH - If Spain hadn't scored first and went up 1-0, and then Japan making an insane strike to equalize and then that crazy 2nd goal, I think you could make the case they were throwing. Mueller from Germany seems to think they threw though "We can't accuse anyone of anything, yet" lol
