What the actual hell. At least we won't be the most embarrassing exit today.

I do think this has something to do with the timing of the WC. The players of the big nations play the top competitions and CL and have something to really focus on after the WC as well. For the 'lesser' teams though, this is absolutely the peak of their season.

Barcalona moving on and Bayern Mnchen getting eliminated is unusual.

Japan are the most entertaining team by far. Costa Rica ruined nothing, everything just got more interesting today, great group.

Brazil benefit a lot from this. They're struggled against the top European nations at world cups since winning their last one. If Argentina beat Netherlands they've got no top european teams until the final. Avoid England, France, Spain and Portugal (and obvs Italy and now Germany).

No way Croatia gets to be excluded in that top European clubs list. They have way better results the past 5 years than most countries just named. Also Brazil literally lost to this Argentina team most recently.

But I'm ready for the Japanese miracle run.

World Cup 1998=hosted by France, teams increased from 24 to 32

Euro 2000 and 2004=Germany eliminated in group stage

World Cup 2006=hosted by Germany

Euro 2016=hosted by France, teams increased from 16 to 24

World Cup 2018 and 2022=Germany eliminated in group stage

Euro 2024=hosted by Germany

what pattern is this?

Assuming Brazil and Portugal win their groups tomorrow, I'd argue both halves are relatively equal in terms of strength.

Brazil - France
Argentina - England
Netherlands - Spain
Croatia - Portugal

Not too different
