Group C - Australia, Brasil, Italy, Jamaica - News and Results [R]

I'll be watching Italy-Brazil live on Italian TV, for a change, so probably less buzzing around from me here.

What do you think, guys? Can possibly Brazil beat Italy and take away the first place from them? Should Italy end at 6 points, what's the chance that Australia can outscore them by bashing at Jamaica?

 

I normally root for underdogs but I wamt Jamaica to lose so that Thailands hopes of advancing stay alive

 

Why do you want Thailand to advance? It's a bad team.

See: rooting for the underdogs

 

This group was FUUUUNNNN. All the drama we could have hoped for and more.

 

Group C:
6+5 (+7-2) C1.Italy (vs. A3.Nigeria or B3.China -- or F3?)
6+3 (+8-5) C2.Australia (vs. A2.Norway)
6+3 (+6-3) C3.Brasil (vs. A1.France or B1.Germany)
0-11 (+1-12) Jamaica

Kerr's solo high press to poach her 4th goal tied Brasil on GD, which moved Australia into 2nd on goals scored

The repechage for four best 3rds:
6+3 (+6-3) C3.Brasil
4=0 (+1-1) B3.China PR
3-2 (+2-4) A3.Nigeria
~~~~~~~~
D3 will have 4, 3, 2, or 1 pt
E3 will have 3 or 1 pt
F3 will have 3 or 1 pt

 

Looks like France v Brazil in the round of 16 - with winner to play USA most likely.

 

I'll certainly be rooting for Brazil in that scenario, well, up until they face the USA.

 

Not if the other 2 3rd place finishers come from Group A and D. If that happens, Brazil would play Germany.

 

I think that's backwards? Everything I've seen says that C3 plays A1 (which B3 already through too) except when the 3rd-placers are B/C/E/F (which gives C3vB1), not A/B/C/D.

 

Norway vs. Australia - can be a very interesting match-up. The only time I will NOT root for Sam Kerr (CRS) is versus Norway and USA.

 

Yeah, you're right, I read it wrong. So if Argentina wins today, that would lock in France-Brazil.
