We have seen so many surprise results in this tournament so far that I am sure we will see surprise results in the remaining matches. Everyone was surprised that Japan was the leader of their group.
The points of the teams in the group are so close to each other that we wouldn't even be surprised if Costa Rica instead of Spain had reached the quarter finals Cheesy

One Japan goal was very controversial for me, even though there are rules about the decision but I think it was clear it was an out ball. Even though the result can no longer be changed, I still can't accept the referee's decision because if this match ends in a draw then Germany will be the runner-up because of the goal advantage. Difficult to accept because this is a big tournament which of course must have a fair decision, even though there is already a VAR system but this decision is still a controversial decision.
I just can't accept this decision that I think is unfair, even though I'm also not a fanatical supporter and am more neutral.

But yes, with this controversial decision, in my opinion, becoming a tournament may not be interesting, because after all, a fairer decision will certainly make this big tournament look cleaner and healthier.
For the remaining matches of the next two groups, I don't think they will be too competitive, because I think teams that still have a chance to qualify, such as Uruguay and Serbia, will not be able to do much. Because Uruguay and Serbia will play against teams that will certainly be able to maintain their position as group runners-up, because Switzerland and Ghana are clearly better at this moment.
