You guys shouldn’t have beaten us 7-1, now you’ll have seven WCs of sorrow, one for every arrow that pierced the very heart of the Brazilian people! Bwahahahaha!
This is could be one helluva strategic 4D chess move by Luis Enrique to avoid Brazil and Argentina, the two tournament favorites while also ensuring another powerhouse is sent packing.
And that's about the only favourable thing you can say about this German team, compared to its 2006 counterpart. The heart, the passion, the mentality ... there's fucking nothing there.
Japan topping this group and Poland going through after both countries' fans despising their manager throughout the group is absolutely peak World Cup. To lose against Costa Rica and still top Spain and Germany is even funnier
With the “rivalry” between the two countries, there might not be a better reward for Morocco (outside of winning it all of course) than having a chance to eliminate Spain.
These group stages have been among the most intense I’ve ever seen. Games were coming down to literal minutes at the end. The one thing you can absolutely say about every team so far is that not a single team quit, every single team went hard until the end of game 3 and then fell over from exhaustion.
We were toothless even when Costa Rica were ahead or in a situation where they were 1 goal away from knocking us out, it's not like we didn't try. We were simply horrible in the second half.
Honestly after ESP and JPN were done with their game, Germany should've just scored 3 own goals. No way Spain deserves it any more than Germany to advance here.
Spain needs to buy Germany a giant gift basket because they saved it from being two WC winners from being eliminated in the same group on the same day.
Mirrors / Alternative Angles
Japan logic: Beat Spain and Germany, lose to Costa Rica
Robin Hood
Japan :Aren't you entertained?
same as Tunisia's logic, draw against Denmark, beat France, and lose against Australia
I wonder what the payout would have been for that parlay lol.
Spain logic : let's lose to avoid Croatia
Germany were nice enough to keep the curse so France could avoid it.
They're going out in the groups for seven tournaments, Brazilian curses are something else.
France started the curse in 2002 World Cup, now they ended it
Remember how we started the tournament in 2006 winning 4-2 against Costa Rica, now we finish it this way
History repeats itself mate. 4-2 was my prediction for today.
You guys shouldn’t have beaten us 7-1, now you’ll have seven WCs of sorrow, one for every arrow that pierced the very heart of the Brazilian people! Bwahahahaha!
That's some "Dark" tv series shit ..
This is could be one helluva strategic 4D chess move by Luis Enrique to avoid Brazil and Argentina, the two tournament favorites while also ensuring another powerhouse is sent packing.
That was the beginning of an amazing tournament run. Maybe this is the end of an awful run.
And that's about the only favourable thing you can say about this German team, compared to its 2006 counterpart. The heart, the passion, the mentality ... there's fucking nothing there.
Holy shit Japan topping a group with Germany and Spain is insane
And they lost to Costa Rica
What a fucking group
It appears Japan likes to do things the hard way
Japan topping this group and Poland going through after both countries' fans despising their manager throughout the group is absolutely peak World Cup. To lose against Costa Rica and still top Spain and Germany is even funnier
And as a reward they get the World Cup runners up from 2018.
2014 Costa Rica Energy
calculated from spain
After beating them both too
Makes it so funny that they lost to Costa Rica also
Chadsans
They are such a solid team. No superstars because they all are Superstars
As long as Japan plays top-ranked European teams, they will be fine. Costa Rica was their big obstacle.
Imagine being a Moroccan. You play your heart to top the group & you get rewarded with Spain in Ro16.
Strait of Gibraltar derby coming up
If they win, Spain will burn
Everyone thought they would get Germany, even when that doesn't happen they still get Spain lmao
You never know what could happen. Maybe we'll beat spain.
With the “rivalry” between the two countries, there might not be a better reward for Morocco (outside of winning it all of course) than having a chance to eliminate Spain.
Now that I've seen Japan beating both Germany and Spain, I think we're content with Spain.
Didn’t they almost beat Spain last WC? I might be mistaking Spain for Portugal but it was pretty close last time I recall
I'm sure Morocco would rather play against Spain than Japan
Those 3 minutes where both Spain and Germany were going out were fantastic
The best timeline
I would have scored 5 own goals in last 2 minutes just to fuck with Spain.
As a Costa Rican I was going crazy!!!! Thank you for the best 3 minutes Costa Rica!
A brief moment of true triumph of the righteous over evil.
I was at the fan park in Doha and everyone went nuts when the live table was shown
Chilling. Nothing quite like the world cup.
All the people on here saying Japan did the biggest bottlejob in WC history, not realizing they were just giving Costa Rica a chance smh
Would've been the biggest upset in world cup history if Costa Rica had won against Germany.
What an insane World Cup.
These group stages have been among the most intense I’ve ever seen. Games were coming down to literal minutes at the end. The one thing you can absolutely say about every team so far is that not a single team quit, every single team went hard until the end of game 3 and then fell over from exhaustion.
I've never watched a world cup that intense
Beats the crap out of 2018. 2010 is still my favorite because it was my first WC so that’s probably my nostalgia talking.
The best one so far!
Japan was so generous with Costa Rica hoping they could also win vs Germany, such lovely people 🥰
Costa Rica and Saudi both beating group winner ending last
Spain leaving Germany hanging?
They clean up the bodies after, such a generous people
Shameless by Spain smh
By far the most entertaining group this world cup
Japan likes playing extreme hot and cold
And I thought Mexico Poland yesterday couldn't be topped. This WC is a banger
Deserved the title of "Group of death"
And the other groups have been top tier already
And that's saying a lot.
Germany tapping out before Japan, and with Italy nowhere to be seen and Spain just chilling...
THE BLUE LOCK IS REAL
Can we get much higher!
That group was fucking wild. Central/northern European countries having terrible world cup
[удалено]
It’s the warmth!
In the final minutes Spain were faced with a situation where:
5head Luis Enrique
Scenes when they shit the bed against Morocco.
2nd place was genuinely better on paper for the knockout games.
They chose well.
We were toothless even when Costa Rica were ahead or in a situation where they were 1 goal away from knocking us out, it's not like we didn't try. We were simply horrible in the second half.
Wouldn’t Japan pass with a tie since they beat Germany?
I hope Morocco destroys them
watch them lose to Morocco
Spain ducked a Brazil matchup, that's 200IQ right there.
Let’s be honest, Brazil will be waiting in the finals for them of Spain makes it that far
Spain owes Germany at least one Balearic island for that.
They already de facto own them.
Bruh, Germany already has them and the UK has Gibraltar, Benidorm and Torrevieja.
Spain pulled some Doctor Strange shit with that massive win over Costa Rica
I honestly think the CR team was over-awed, and they shouldn't have been.
They really Scooby Dooed that shit
The Group E table in the second half
poor Costa Rica that wouldve been fucking magical
The way I actually expected to see a graph 😂
https://media.tenor.com/HNJxG5BSHF0AAAAC/me-him.gif
Germany should have lost just to take Spain with them
Especially as Spain were clearly not overly interested in ensuring they won.
Tough day to be a European country with a black, red, and yellow flag…
Early christmas for the Dutch people haha
Germany loves France so much that they decided to take the champion’s curse from France for themselves for the second time in a row
Thank God we don't have black in our flag then
THE MACUMBA WORKED 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
🇩🇰🤝 🇧🇪🤝 🇩🇪
Italy: hey Guys welcome back in europe
the dutch carrying that part of europe
Europeans complain about AFC then they send tinpot countries like Belgium and Germany
Not a great day to be germanic.
WE ARE GOING TO PLAY JAPAN IN 1/16 FINALS AS SECOND PLACED
[удалено]
And Brazil is gonna wait the winner of that match :/ idk should I be happy or not
Can we get back to that 90 seconds when Spain and Germany were heading home?
man these 3 minutes were heaven
That was a fun time.
Man that would've been sensational.
Me as a German at that moment was like: LET COSTA RICA WINN PLEEEAAAASE
I wish. I found the thought amazing that spain was going home with us.
[удалено]
We are going to miss the group drama so much
They are going to create a clusterfuck trying to solve a problem they created. It’s such a stupid stupid idea
Death, Taxes, Germans ruining the fun
call an ambulance…but not for watashi
Costa Rica with 3 points and a -8 was through to the round of 16 for a few minutes this afternoon lol
I find it more amusing to think of a team that lost a game 0-7 qualifying whereas the team that scored those 7 not qualifying.
that couple of minutes where both Germany and Spain where going out was so shocking, best world cup I've seen in years.
It's chaotic and unpredictable as hell ,never seen a world Cup like this ,like compared to the previous world this version is much better and exciting
i don't hate Spain, but having Japan and Costa Rica going through would have been awesome
NEVER DOUBT A TEAM WHO HAVE POWER OF GOD AND ANIME ON THEIR SIDE 😤😤😤
Blue lock is real.
They have one for all
I love the world cup
The World Cup rarely disappoints!
Beating Germany and Spain yet losing to Costa Rica is chaos incarnate
I wanted to live in the world where Japan and Costa Rica both advance. Those 3 minutes were legendary.
Wished germany would let costa rika win just to fuck with spain
As a Costa Rican, those were one of the happiest 3 minutes of my life
We were all rooting for you. I was so proud of those players.
Germany took Frances curse for a 2nd tourney running
THANKS JAPAN FOR DOING ITALYS JOB
What the fuck just happened
Just Japan beating Spain and Germany to top their group.
Blue Lock
Your "Only one with 5 stars" Shitposting License has been extended to 18th December 2022.
1 point more than 4 years ago and 3rd place not 4th 🤡🤡
Progress!! Rome wasn't built in a day
Congrats Germany! Improving
Might just about scrape 2nd next time if you get your shit together
Hey, at this rate maybe we'll get through the group stage in 2030.
The Samurai has defeated the Teutonic knight and the conquistador
Bad year for red black yellow flags
Germany following Italy's steps, how cute
Germany joining Belgium and Denmark boycotting the knockout stages in protest
Christ on a bike this world cup is insane
So with this Spain will face Morocco instead of Croatia while eliminate Germany. Is this Enrique playing 5d chess or just coincidence??
Just so everyone knows.
The 2 minutes when both Germany and Spain were out of the World cup were the best in the last 4 years of football
Crazy group Japanese look damn good
Imagine telling someone that Japan would top group E with 6 points and that their one loss would be to Costa Rica…
Belgium and Germany going home together on the same day is a a wet dream.
Flair checks out
Spain now with a realistic chance of playing only countries they share land borders with until the final: Morocco, Portugal, France/England
It's beautiful, I needed that today.
Never doubted Japan
the blue lock is real
Japan are mentality monsters, comebacks on Spain and Germany are fucking insane. Best world cup group stages ever.
Japan beats both Germany and Spain. Unreal, these guys just play with everything they have
And lose to Costa Rica. You never know what to expect
Unless it’s against Costa Rica
Jesus Christ my heart
Up the fucking Japanese!
All according to keikaku
Not the first time Japan has coz an upset against a European powerhouse
Beat Germany and Spain but lost to Costa Rica? Concacaf on the the come up
Japan: Beats Germany and Spain
In my books Costa Rica beat Germany
We were close, but as Costa Ricans... They fucked it up.
Blue Lock writers making unrealistic storylines.
Japan and Morocco winning their groups as we all expected.
Group of death.
Beats Germany 2-1
At least we died with our boots on, proud of our boys, very outclassed in terms of quality but with a lot of heart
Germany should have let crc win
Disgrace of Gijón
[удалено]
Morocco wins the group and gets Spain as a reward!
THIS IS THE GREATEST SPORT IN THE WORLD
Honestly after ESP and JPN were done with their game, Germany should've just scored 3 own goals. No way Spain deserves it any more than Germany to advance here.
Too many spots for UEFA in the wc. At least they should compete some of their spots against other confederations.
6 points for Japan and 0 came from Costa Rica.
Japan somehow activated anime god mode.
for about 2 minutes I believed that both Germany and Spain were going to be eliminated in the group stage.
Beats Germany
When Japan and Costa Rica were knocking out Germany and Spain… I cannot describe the glorious sensation…
Germany ruining the memes by not scoring 3 own goals at the end smh
For five glorious minutes, both Germany and Spain were going out.
Spain needs to buy Germany a giant gift basket because they saved it from being two WC winners from being eliminated in the same group on the same day.
Japan topping the group beating Germany and Spain while losing to Costa Rica is something special
Those beautiful few minutes where both Spain and Germany were trailing. Thought I was dreaming, but reality hit me again with Havertz goal.
How wild is it that Japan beat both Spain and Germany span of a week, but lost to Costa Rica?
Japam beating Spain and Germany is a a highlight
Morocco just got fucked over wow
congrats! Japan! You made Japan and Asia proud - from Korean Fan
Should FIFA consider reducing the amount of bids UEFA gets to the World Cup? It's only fair to more competitive teams in stronger conferences
