Interesting;
No non-Asian team won their first Group match in 2010 after losing their last tuneup match .. .. As long as you don't lose that last warmup match, things look good .. .. Wonder how Japan & Korea won their matches .. ..
WIN OR GO HOME?
What happened when you got to the 2010 World Cup for your first match .. ..
If you LOST your last Friendly before your first Group Match = 2W – 6L – 2D = 8ptsThe two that won were JAPAN & SOUTH KOREA .. ..
If you WON your last Friendly before your first Group Match = 7W – 4L – 9D = 30 pts
If you DREW your last Friendly before your first Group Match = 1W – 1D – 0L = 4 pts
