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
The group that was previously predicted to be the easiest for Spain and Germany but turned out to be the group of hell, maybe there was a bit of underestimating to the opponent so that these two big teams were really surprised by what Japan displayed, if Germany didn't see there was a chance to qualify and let Costa Rica win then it became a nightmare for Spain.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
The end result of this group is very dramatic. Japan, which previously had not been taken into account, instead managed to win the group. This is an extraordinary achievement from the Asian representative and history will record this sweet result because Japan managed to beat the two giants of world football. Besides that, the achievement that Japan should be proud of is that they will get a good ranking in the FIFA standings.
