Seen much worse fouls that weren't red cards. Not that it mattered

The scenes around CV are exactly why FIFA can get away with the all the shenanigans they do. Because as soon as things like this happen, the whole world stops in amazement and all the corruption, selfishness and insanity just doesn't matter anymore.

it's kinda like nfl fans always hating on the commissioner but they will keep watching.

This is why I love the expanded field. Also, screw Uruguay. I hate the way they play. Finally, Spain is super unimpressive.

Has a team ever advanced to the knockout stages without winning a game and scored only 2 goals in the group stages?
Ireland and Netherlands both did it in 1990

Cape Verde and KSA game was a fantastic experience. Highly recommend catching a WC match if you ever get the chance. Never had so much fun at an event with no scoring.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Spain win Group H as expected, although not really comfortably. Cabo Verde pulls an improbable outcome and finishes 2nd in the group. Their reward is a date with reigning champs Argentina. Uruguay are the highest ranked team officially going home early. Saudi Arabia were just kinda there and finish 4.

Final Group H Standings:
-------------------------Pld---W---D---L---GD----Pts
Spain---------------------3---2---1---0___+5----7
Cabo Verde------------3---0---3---0___0----3
Uruguay----------------3---0---2---1___-1----2
Saudi Arabia----------3---0---2---1___-4----2


Match Day 1 Results:
Spain 0 : Cabo Verde 0
Saudi Arabia 1 : Uruguay 1

Match Day 2 Results:
Spain 4 : Saudi Arabia 0
Uruguay 2 : Cabo Verde 2

Match Day 3 Results:
Cabo Verde 0 : Saudi Arabia 0
Uruguay 0 : Spain 1

Wow. That's freaking terrible. Like, I get being disappointed in the team's performance, but that's just ridiculous. It's not like they were considered a favorite to win it all or anything.

Yeah, but remember those two times in 1930 and 1950 when they won it all?

I think part of their disgust is that those "Backwoods" Paraguayans are advancing and they aren't.
