World Cup Day Ten

In Group A Up to this point the NETHERLANDS had won their first game and drew their second. Their last game was against the host nation Qatar, in which they won 2-0. Not a bad game although I think that the Dutch still have not got in gear. The Netherlands finished with a total of 7 points and are on a total of 5 goals. Qatar are the first team to go out of the tournament as they had failed to win any of their three games. This will be a Golden Goals World Cup record for a host nation to go out of the games after the first round group stage. They did manage to score one goal. SENEGAL won their last game 2-1 against ECUADOR to finish second in the group. Senegal have won two and lost one. They are on a total of 5 goals. Ecuador are also out of the tournament as they finished in third place with a total of 4 goals. Ecuador won one drew one and lost one. They were last with us in 2014 Brazil where they finished on a total of 3 goals and went out in the first round group stage. 

The final group table finished like this after all have played their third game. NETHERLAND are top with 7 points with SENEGAL finishing in second place with 6 points. ECUADOR are third with 4 point and Qatar are bottom of the group with no points. 

In Group B ENGLAND won their last games against WALES 3-0 and what a different team this was? A very good and entertaining game although I did feel a bit sorry for Wales. England had won their first epic game against Iran and then drew with the USA, which was very disappointing. England are through to the second round and are on a total of 9 goals. WALES who had drew their first game against USA and then lost against Iran. They also scored just 1 goal in the tournament. The USA played Iran in their last game and won 1-0 and they are also through to the second round. The USA have won one game and drawn two. They are on a total of 2 goals. 

ENGLAND finished top of the group with 7 points. USA are in second place with 5 points. Next we have Iran with 3 points. WALES are bottom of the group with 1 point.
