My favorite group, the one where you can count on every team playing football and trying their best.

Welp, no matter how bad Colombia looked at times in qualifying, the level of play of these Asian teams has been so piss poor that I expect them to win comfortably, or at the very least, not really be threatened.

As amazing as Kagawa can be at times, this Japanese team will be too heavy to be carried to victory

Fell in love with the Japan national team during the 2010 WC. Always cheered for them since. Really hope they pull off an upset here.

Penalty of course, is a red always given for that though?

Feel really bad for Colombia

Its an intentional last man hand ball in the box to deny a goal. Thats about as red as it gets.
