This group was crazy. 1st round Japan beat Germany, then Spain destroyed Costa Rica 7-0. But the next round Costa Rica beat Japan and Spain and Germany tied, and in the last round Spain lost to Japan and Costa Rica put up a great fight against Germany, they started losing 0-1 then came back to 2-1, but eventually Germany came back stronger scoring 3 more goals for a 2-4. When Costa Rica was winning, in those brief little 3 minutes, Japan and Costa Rica were both qualifying to the round of 16 and leaving Spain and Germany behind. Add that to the fact a lot of ppl had to change channels constantly to see how both matches were going.
