If you told me before the Word Cup that Japan was going to lose to Costa Rica I would have bet so much money on them to be eliminated in the Group Stage and to finish bottom of the group. Instead they’re a couple minutes from topping the group.
Japan tied it up and very nearly took the lead in a matter of a couple minutes but the ball barely went out of bounds. EDIT. Didn’t go out. Japan up 2-1.

[/tweet] Had Mexico won 3-1, assuming the other score was the same, they would have moved on. However, if that wasn't bad enough... [tweet]
[/tweet] Poland had no business only losing that game 2-0.
It’s an interesting dynamic for Argentina. They’re moving on with a pair of ties. They’d obviously love to win to avoid France but if they lose today they’re out.
