Group E - Spain, Germany, Japan, Costa Rica

[AndyZaltzHair]

Spain have been pretty boring this half tbf. I'd be fuming if I was a German watching their "effort" .

Cant complain when you leave your fate to others

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Well done Japan

 

[ashley bach]

The land of the rising sun....who would've thought.

 

[Burgey]

Well welll well

the Hun don’t like it up ‘em

True.

They were very wasteful v Japan in game 1 which obviously killed them.

Croatia v Japan and Spain v Morocco are very spicy matches next round.

 

[GIMH]

If Germany want to fume against anyone it’s the VAR folk for giving that goal

 

[BoyBrumby]

Huh. Must be the most extended period of shiteness from Jerry I can remember.

Since a semi at Euro 2016 they've had two group exits in world cups and a 2nd round exit at Euro 2020 to England.

 

[Pothas]

Yeah easily. Which is bizarre considering they had that famously bad era in the early 2000s, during which they got to a final...

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Always loved VAR me. ?

Most of their side appears to be champions league winners too. They've done a lot more with a lot less.

Yeah

Back in the day they could turn up with a team of backpackers and make the final

Just saw Japan’s 2nd goal

Hmmm

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Spain lucky with a fluke big goal difference going through

 

[Chubb]

IIRC until 2018 Germany had never gone out of a World or European championship before England.

Shame Costa Rica couldn't win as well, would've been amazing.

Euro 2004 I think.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

I just woke up and what the actual hell is going on


Also yesssssssssss

 

[Furball]

Technically 1966 as well.

 

[Chubb]

Euro 2004 I think.

I know they were really bad that year - it's definitely true for World Cups tho.

 

[Chubb]

Technically correct is the best kind of correct.
