New Zealand Men's U-17s
So Group D very even, equal top on the group table
Thought we should have had a freekick on the edge of the box or a penalty for the challange that resulted in the Czech boy going off injured near the end.
Uzbeks and Czechs would need to draw and no. of goals scored would count in both games?
No. We would finish 4th with a loss + UZB/CZE draw.
Coey Turipa was outstanding at the previous U17 World Cup. Pathway for young keepers in New Zealand isn't the greatest. Older goalkeepers are always going to dominate game time in the senior grades

In fact I feel dirty just mentioning them in the same post.
What I meant was, how is 3 points looking in terms of a best 3rd placed finish?

Hard to tell at this stage, as only one round's been played in Groups E and F. Will have a better idea this time tomorrow.
3rd placed teams in Groups A and C have 1 point each, but both could potentially get to 4 points after the last round considering their fixtures. To be expected that 3rd placed team in group B will end up with more than 3 points.
What I meant was, how is 3 points looking in terms of a best 3rd placed finish?
Goals scored would then count for Kiwis in best of 3rd place getters?

In order:
Highest number of points
Goal difference
Number of goals scored
Drawing of lots
No, that was the UEFA idea.
If we're equal with the US on points, goal difference and goals scored, there will be drawing of lots to determine who finishes where.

Ah ok. Cheers for clearing it up EG.

Mexico through. Could be either Congo, Netherlands or Korea DPR. Last game Mexico v Netherlands and Congo plays Korea DPR.
Too close to call and far too emotionally involved.
Germany for sure, undecided on the 2nd team.

Ivorians - 21 shots, 12 on target just in the first half!
Denmark scored two goals from their only two shots on target.
