Yeah germany need something vs Spain or they are out.

Costa Rica have blown this group wide open now though. Japan looked in a great position after besting Germany, now theyll need something vs Spain.

3 points could be enough for runner up here.

No, Germany now can't be knocked out today. This is a good result for them.

(For example, Germany lose to Spain but beat Costa Rica, three teams finish on 3 points and it goes on GD.)

Germany could lose toniht and still go through

If they then beat Costa Rica and Spain beat Japan then all three would be on 3 points and it would come down to GD

Feel sorry for Japan there. Costa Rica made no effort to win that game and yet somehow they have.
