beb0p Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 yup. Really odd decision to simultaneously telecast the matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMG Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 There is a logic for that. That is to avoid manipulation. So that one doesnt know how many goals to get for a better goal difference. And so that you play fair football , irrespective of the fact that you are already qualified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie G Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 yup. Really odd decision to simultaneously telecast the matches. As AMG Pointed out There was 1 case in the early years when Germany and some team needed a 1-1 draw for both to qualify and they both scored in 15 and then neither attacked .Since then the rules were changed so that no team has a clear advantage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMG Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Russian midfield is horrible defensively. Massive open gaps. But so in the Greek defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMG Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 This tournament will not be decided on goal difference, but on head-to-head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMG Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 So that will take Greece to the top of the group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie G Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 So that will take Greece to the top of the group. Ya but if 3 teams are there where all 3 have beaten the other like for example Russia beat Czech who beat Greece who are beating Russia then its impossible to decide the 2 teams on head to head,in that scenario GD is the tiebreaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
