This is the political showdown match we've been waiting for. It's endlessly amusing to me that those two teams got picked against each other. Hexbear should livechat it or something.

Ecuador-Senegal is also a decider in that group

Note the start times. Scheduling is different from previous days, idky.

    Scheduling is different from previous days, idky.

    Starting in 86 all matchday 3 games per each group start at the same time. The logic is that teams playing in a later game would have an advantage knowing the result of the earlier game. For example, a team knowing they only need a draw to advance because of the result of an earlier game might change their tactics. Also, there was some talk in earlier tournaments that safe to advance teams manipulated goal differential to favor a team from their own confederation advancing.
