As it stands now I believe it's Russia who will be boarding a plane tomorrow, since there are only two teams now on 4pts and the group tie-breakers are only between Greece and Russia. The Czech's 4-1 loss is now irrelevant if things stay like this.

Just as I was thinking this was going to be the first pony game and the first 0-0! Still could end up as the former TBF TBH

Amazing how 1 goal hundreds of miles away can cause a team to drop 2 places and out of the competition.

Couldn't happen to a nicer set of fans, eh? :lol:

Can someone explain to me why a goal for the Czech's against Poland see Greece go ahead of Russia. Nothing has changed between Russia and Greece...

Is it only HtH when it's two team's on the same points and GD when it's three?

Ah... I get it from the stuff above.

Germany are going to absolutely arserape Greece, unless something crazy happens and they don't top their group.

Wow! that was an upset. Anyone watch the Russia/Greece match? What happened to the Russians, they looked so good in the first match.

Unless the Germans don't turn up, in the style of red-hot favourites Russia.

That was fantastic!

Poland and Russia give it the big one - both get eliminated. Germany must be laughing their arses off.

They looked good in the 1st half but then Greece scored and Russia seemed to give up until the last 5 minutes.

Greece attacked much more after the break and as for the other game - Poland faded badly after a quick start (probably showed why they are 64 in the world)

This head to head rules stuff is messed up. If Poland had equalised, Russia would have finished ahead of Greece on the 'head to head' rule. Yet because of another result they finish behind on head to head. Thats a contradiction of the the rule "head to head". I understand how it all works in the end , but the rules are just plain wrong.
