5. Mexico with 2 wins not yet through; Korea with 2 losses not yet out.

This is crazy. We could still wind up with 3 countries with 6 points (Mex, Ger, Swe) and Kor with 0. Or we could wind up with 3 countries with 3 points (Ger, Swe, Kor) and Mex with 9.

Assuming Germany will beat Korea by a few, if Sweden beat Mexico 1-0, both Sweden and Mexico would have identical records: 6 points, and 3-2 goal difference.

I'm assuming the next tie breaker is head-to-head, favouring Sweden but is it? Anybody know? Fair play table?
