Sums up the craziness of this World Cup. I hope it continues right through to the end.
If South Korea get another then what a finish we'll have to this game.

I'm watching this game. It makes me realise just how far England are behind in every aspect of the game. From the kit design, to technical skill. Shocking, truly shocking.

Good chance there for Korea to make it a barn-storming finish.

That seems to have been the case for a number of the smaller sides at this World Cup, though; it's the necessity of needing goals and a result which has enabled them to find that extra 20%.

So ends a remarkable match - full of goals and entertaining, attacking football.
Credit to the South Koreans for making a game of it with a second half performance I don't think any of us thought they were capable of - but equally full credit to the Algerians for winning the game in the first half and continuing to attack in the second when they could easily have shut up shop when it went 3-1. Ultimately, though, Algeria deserved to hang on for that absolutely sublime fourth goal - which is one of the best team passing goals we'll see in this World Cup. What an outstanding football tournament this World Cup is turning out to be. |

The commentator said a draw against Russia will see Algeria through. Surely Korea still have a chance of going through.

Another fun match in a World Cup full of them. Sets up for an interesting final day for this group too. I'd like to see the Algerians go though.

Really good game, thoroughly entertaining, right up there with the best matches of the tournament. Some terrific goals, too.
Algeria in a very good position to qualify now. |

Yep, he's wrong. It's a slim chance, but if Russia and Algeria draw, or Russia win, then S Korea beat Belgium by the required GD, then Belgium and S Korea would go through.
If Russia and Algeria draw then SK would have to beat Belgium by 4 or more otherwise Algeria will go though on head to head record. |

I get your point, we're averaging 2.9 goals, highest since 1970 (1982 averaged 2.82 so watch out for that), but I suspect people are having selective memories and forgetting some of the duffers we've had just beforehand. Mind you I can't blame anyone not wanting to remember some of those matches listed above, I'm certainly trying to.
