Yes, the fact that this chance even exists is weird. Group games should not be possible to be repeated until the final.

It's done so to make almost impossible for one of the two hosts to have to play in the other country. 

 

The situation you mention happened in (men's WC) Korea-Japan 2002 when Brazil and Turkey played a semifinal after meeting each other in group stage.

Curiously that time Korea could have played in Japan had they advanced to the final.

This includes every player who played at the World Cup.   Everyone here who dismissed this as a minor issue or as being overblown really needs to do some serious soul searching imo.

I must say Women football has really developed in this competition, there are no punch bags anymore apart from Vietnam , Zambia and Costa Rica , all other teams have left a mark , still we see some si

Right, it does make a bit of sense then, thanks :p

 

Another reason to be in favour of one-nation events, I suppose :d 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

This thinks every team and then it’s not that easy to beat Sweden. Ask USA and Japan:p 

I agree that it won't be any case of walk-over, but I don't think the danger on the counter is as large. However, the danger with corners is substantial, if you will play good enough to get any of them.

 

It also helps on the mental side to not play a team you just lost 4-0 to.

Or to not play against a team that you lost 0-4 to make you think it will be easier? That is probably the worst thing to think before a game.

      it looks that earlier Today the  crew of Ineos Britannia made the decisive break and now they're just 1 win away from the Louis Vuitton Cup and the chance to face Team Emirates New Zealand for the America's Cup   in Today's 2 races, for the first time there was no share of victories between the  and  crews, instead the  guys were simply better than the Italians, who made a capital mistake in the choice of the jib in the 1st race and just lost the start battle (and therefore the race) in the 2nd head-to-head   now Ineos Britannia leads the best-of-13 series by a score of 6-4

      preliminary entry list for the World Championships (non-Olympic weights) 2024   https://uww.org/article/world-championships-non-olympic-weights-2024-entries   Abdulrashid Sadulaev won the Russian trials yesterday (he didn't look good though) and therefore his name is here, as well as another Olympic Champion Zaur Uguev. with David Taylor, Jordan Burroughs and Reza Geraei we have at least 5 Olympic Champions in the list    also interesting to see lots of guys (Berdimuratov, Ganbaatar, Tsakulov, Kaipanov etc) cut weight massively from their usual Olympic weight to wrestle here.  which shows the importance of a World Championship title    ps: 2024 Olympians are not allowed to wrestle here.

      I genuinely wonder if ski mountaineering is honestly more popular in terms of audience. Cyclocross quite certainly isn't   Although I believe the season is about to start, so Belgian TV will be busy making it look big again
