Rob1981 Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Bit weird, but another goal doesn't change a lot here for Ecuador. Think they've got to go and take a point vs Senegal whether they win 2-1 or lose 2-1. For Netherlands, result here makes a much bigger difference potentially.

It does make all the difference, they'd really prefer not to play against England. I'd rather risk it here and play for a win against Senegal than pretty much concede first place with a draw. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they win, they could still lose to Senegal and go through (would depend on GD). If they draw, they have to get a point. Also gives them a chance for a better draw. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I was trying to work this out. 2-1 Ecuador win here and they are +3 and Senegal are 0 GD going into the last day. So Senegal would need to beat them by two goals to put them out. Or they could both go through still if Senegal beat Ecuador by any score and Netherlands don’t beat Qatar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
