Reminder: If France and England win their QF there will be 5th place match for an olympic quota. In such case, the ranking order of teams that could be in that match is: 1. , 2.  3. , 4.  

No other team can possibly play the 5th place game, which means  and can only qualify to Paris by winning their QF match. 

Israel sneaked in the next round. I knew they would do it. They have a new generation with incredible mental strength combined with skills.

5 players from the U20 here + Gloukh who skipped the WC last month but is also U20.  

could all be banana peels for GB, maybe some better teams too if the other continentals don't play out as expected.

It wasnt even close to win in final, but I did expected this outcome.  how big are our chances to qualify via final world tournament? Bigger than it was now?

He answered in the previous page.

Boo, just when we were getting to the best part.   

This has to be all staged. 

It's legit, confirmed by Vlady. 

Let's go grab the popcorn.

Hope it's the most fun option (coup) but it sounds too dumb to be true. Probably some sort of staging to justify another military purge (boring).

Lmao Serbia scored 5 seconds before the end of the match. Poor Bulgaria.

Some of you might know that  will play against    in a friendly on Monday.
 

The hype was so high here but after it was clear that Messi will not be playing, the situation became Messy  

 

Quite a lot of people are reselling their tickets because basically the match now has not much left to offer. My friend after he got his hand on the tickets he directly sell it to a scalper waiting at the exit lane of the ticket booth…

Our staff got scared because of the people harassing the team in China and didn't want the same there.  

I'm surprised the organization didn't put a "Messi clause" in the match contract (less money if he doesn't play). That would have been the effective way to secure his presence.

Brazil won, so rest of the tournament is already pointless. See you in 4 years  

Argentina defeated Colombia 19-0 so I guess the match vs Brazil in 20 minutes is basically the game for the olympic quota? I understand the women's tournament is a round robin with no final?

Please, remove the "american" from the title. As if we can't tell it's american from the name of the competition and the name of the confederations involved already...

I had tickets but already sold them to an uruguayan acquaintance today 

Israel defeated Brazil

There are things in the world that cannot be explained. they are the so-called mysteries of the world. such as the Pyramids, Stonehange, easter island statues, Lost show ending or how did Slovakia qualify here ... how ? I guess this one will never be solved

 

It's actually easy to explain... they hosted the euro U19 (so no grueling qualifiers to go thru) and then only defeated weak teams like Romania and Austria. 

Dramatic finish to group C... 

Israel beats Japan 2-1 while being down one player and down in the score to qualify for the next round.

Colombia scores to tie the game against Senegal in the 7th minute of injury time, the african champions thus leave the tournament without a win.

Lmao Italy's absolutely battering Brazil and the big crowd in Mendoza is loving it with very loud anti-brazil songs and "ole"s 

qualified.

Do you know if they are awarding points as usual or like they do with the women's event (since they are doing a 7th & 11th place matches). If it is the latter then Samoa in third & Australia in eighth would be enough

Yes, it's probably like the women's given this:

What is the scenario for Australia to qualify?

Australia qualifies with a semifinal finish or with Samoa not winning the tournament. 

Go Spurs go  

Now I may feel like watching NBA again.
