Current Global Futbol World Cup Standings

 

Here are the current standings of the Global Futbol World Cup after each team’s second game.

 

 

 

Group A
Country	P	W	D	L	GD	Pts
Russia	2	2	0	0	+12	6
Faroe Islands	2	1	1	0	+2	4
Mexico	2	0	1	1	-5	1
Solomon Islands	2	0	0	2	-9	0

 

Mexico must thump Solomon Islands, who have a point to prove at this World Cup, and make up a goal difference of seven over Faroe Islands, who take on Russia. The European side only needs a draw to progress, and a win will mean taking top spot. Russia will only need a draw to hold on to that first position.

 

 

Group B
Country	P	W	D	L	GD	Pts
Spain	2	2	0	0	+4	6
Guinea	2	2	0	0	+2	6
Czech Republic	2	0	0	2	-2	0
Guatemala	2	0	0	2	-4	0

 

Spain and Guinea play for first position in their final group game. A draw will see Spain remain above Guinea thanks to their better goal difference.

 

Group C
Country	P	W	D	L	GD	Pts
Italy	2	2	0	0	+4	6
Denmark	2	1	0	1	+2	3
Togo	2	1	0	1	+1	3
Vietnam	2	0	0	2	-7	0

 

Vietnam have no chance of progressing as either Denmark, Togo or both will gain points and take a place in the Round of 16. The odds are stacked in Italy’s favour to gain maximum points and top spot in Group C. Denmark and Togo, meanwhile, fight out for the other place. A draw will see Denmark progress due to a better goal difference. Togo must win to progress.

 

Group D
Country	P	W	D	L	GD	Pts
Germany	2	2	0	0	+6	6
Belgium	2	1	0	1	-1	3
Uzbekistan	2	0	1	1	-2	1
St Vincent/Gr.	2	0	1	1	-3	1

 

In Group D, Germany is guaranteed a position in the knockout stages. Belgium must defeat Uzbekistan to also guarantee that place as well. However, if they draw, St Vincent and the Grenadines can vault over them both with a win over Germany by three goals. Uzbekistan can progress if they overcome Belgium and do better or score the same goal margin as the Caribbean side.

 

Group E
Country	P	W	D	L	GD	Pts
Brazil	2	2	0	0	+2	6
Poland	2	1	0	1	+1	3
Cyprus	2	0	0	1	0	3
North Korea	2	0	0	2	-3	0

 

North Korea has no chance of progressing to the knockout stages, due to the Cyprus and Poland match resulting in those teams gaining points. The Asian nation’s opponents, Brazil, are guaranteed a place, and only need a draw to hold first place. If Poland and Cyprus draw, then Poland progresses, whereas a win will put either team through. Should North Korea beat Brazil, Poland can take the highest spot in Group E by beating Cyprus by at least one. Cyprus can do the same if they win by at least two goals.

 

Group F
Country	P	W	D	L	GD	Pts
France	2	1	1	0	+3	4
Colombia	2	0	2	0	0	2
Lithuania	2	0	2	0	0	2
Kenya	2	0	1	1	-3	1

 

Technically, all teams can progress to the Round of 16 in any combination (except for Kenya taking top spot). Kenya must win against Colombia and hope that Lithuania loses to France, or France to lose and Kenya gain a goal difference advantage of seven. France only needs to draw. A draw or win where Colombia only beat Kenya by two will guarantee first place. A loss opens the door for Colombia and Lithuania to progress together. 

 

Group G
Country	P	W	D	L	GD	Pts
Chile	2	2	0	0	+9	6
Macedonia	2	1	0	1	+1	3
Ghana	2	1	0	1	-1	3
Iraq	2	0	0	2	-9	0

 

Chile has a slight chance of missing out, but with a goal difference of nine, Macedonia will have to score five to overtake them and Ghana will need to make up a difference of ten. It is possible, but Chile is such an attacking team that they are bound to score a few past Macedonia. Meanwhile, Iraq could qualify, but will need to score plenty and make up ten goals on Macedonia. Ghana must produce a better result than Macedonia to progress, or if they both win, Ghana must have a better goal difference of two, with more goals scored overall.

 

Group H
Country	P	W	D	L	GD	Pts
Ecuador	2	2	0	0	+4	6
Costa Rica	2	1	0	1	+1	3
England	2	1	0	1	0	3
Libya	2	0	0	2	-5	0

 

England still holds third place, thanks to a better goal difference for Costa Rica. Costa Rica next face Ecuador, while the English hope to win against Libya. All four teams still have a chance to make the Round of 16, though Libya must make up six goals to overtake both England and Costa Rica on goal difference (and must score three more than England while hoping Ecuador trounce Costa Rica). Ecuador can only be eliminated if Costa Rica win by two goals and England by three. The Three Lions will need a win over Libya and hope Ecuador defeat Costa Rica or hold them to a draw. This is truly shaping up to be one of the closest groups of the World Cup, along with Group F.
