good possession team - no one standing out, bar maybe Koroma who seems to have a reasonable touch and is attacking.

Howieson has been a little reckless these last two games,just that half step off the pace in his challenges. Another free kick and yellow from him in handy position for the opposing side.

So am I right that it is now confirmed that the third placed team will advance because of this mornings other results?

If this game finishes 0-0, I think NZ and USA's positions in the group will need to be determined by a drawing of lots as they will be equal on points, GD, goals scored and the result between them.

I saw someone say it would be better to finish 2nd as thats the easier path if such a thing exists. who plays whom... anyone worked it out?

Good buildup play for the first time in the match really. Hopefully we come out and play in the 2nd half like the last game.

Good run by the LB - we need to see more of that to help create a little space.
 
Also here's a question, have we had a shot in any game other than a FK from outside the box, e.g from midfield.
 
Can't remember one - would be good to add to the arsenal, give other teams something to think about.

As it stands ... USA, NZ and Uzbekistan would go through.

USA and NZ wouild still have to be seperated by a drawing of lots if this game is drawn.  I think we'd need to wait until after tomorrow's games for who plays who.  The third placed team in Group D will end up playing either Mexico or Japan.
 
There's a graphic here...

Czechs know that and will therefore be playing all out for the win.

Yep, top 2 from each pool and the 4 (?) best 3rd place sides. Earlier groups have already finished with 3rd on 2 points, so 3rd place guaranteed to go through here.
