This is the official thread for Group F. Group F contains Netherlands, Japan, Sweden and Tunisia.
The World Cup Bridesmaids (Netherlands) return for another round of trying to finally win the big one. Nobody has finished 2nd more times without winning than the Dutch. Japan are considered one of the dark horses by a lot of folks. Very well organized. Sweden managed to back door their way through the UEFA qualifying process. They did not win a match in their group and finished last but went to the playoffs because of their Nations League position. They finally woke up there and beat Ukraine and Poland to get into the World Cup. Tunisia did not give up a goal in qualifying and is in the World Cup for the 7th time, but have never gotten out of the group stage.
-------------------------
Netherlands win Group F. Japan finish 2nd with 5 points and will face Brazil in the round of 32. Sweden finish third and are guaranteed to advance to the knockout round. Tunisia are eliminated and will probably be considered the worst team at the tournament.
