In Group H Japan beat ten men COLUMBIA after they gave away a penalty in the 3rd
minute of play in the first half. Columbia came back to draw 1-1 by half time.
In the second half Japan scored
again 2-1. Columbia have five votes and they are in their fourth World Cup with
us. They scored 12 goals in Brazil 2014. The luckiest team of the
tournament must be SENEGAL. They received a home goal in the first
half against POLAND
and in the second half they were gifted with a goal by the Polish
goalkeeper. Poland found this was a very hard game to play but they did score a
goal from a corner but lost 2-1 in their first game. Both Poland and Senegal
are in their first World Cup with us. Senegal have just one vote while Poland
have two. Top of the group are Japan and
Poland with three points each.
In Group A, RUSSIA have started the second round of games in
the group stages. Their second game was against EGYPT and after their big 5-0 win
against Saudi Arabia, how would they do. Well it could of been any one of the
two teams that could take the lead as they both had plenty of chances but it
was still 0-0 at half time. Russia had quite a difficult time in trying to
break down the Egyptians defence, but they finally did, winning 3-1 with the
Egyptians getting a penalty and their first goal of the tournament late in the
game. Russia could be the first team to
go into the next round while Egypt go out as they also lost their first game to
Uruguay. Russia have taken their goals tally up to 8 goals which is the best
they have done since they scored eight goals in Italian 1990.
The first news sheet will be with you
