You’re not here to do math. You’re watching the World Cup to see beautiful goals and cheer on your favorite teams.
Of course, the final days of the group stage don’t care about that.
With the field of 32 teams being cut in half for the knockout round, the qualification scenarios and tiebreakers can get complicated. Not only will you be tabulating points earned from results, but also goal differentials and maybe even yellow cards.
