Instead, I propose to remove some of the information at the 2006 FIFA World Cup page. I think, that the results at that page should be as on 2004 European Football Championship. When the WC is over, a statistic page also could be made, also as Euro 04. kalaha 21:32, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
I've added all possible outcomes for this group, separating them by the possible outcomes for the upcoming Togo/Switzerland game. I've commented out each section in the code so it becomes easy to delete the sections that no longer apply after the game has been completed. Hopefully this helps out the guy who usually does this... as I was completely bored today. (Obviously :P) ScottNak 03:22, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
One of the three-way tie scenarios is covered at User:Carcharoth/Group_G. I'm going to wait until the Togo-Switzerland game is finished before going any further. The other 3-way scenario, which could happen following a Togo win over Switzerland, could also be examined. Carcharoth 13:16, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
But it looks like it won't be 3-2 either way, anyway. Carcharoth 14:46, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
Should all tiebreaks be marked in the table used to summarise qualification scenarios? I think it makes sense to show outright winners/runner-ups on their own, but to show the ties separately, even if, in the case of a Korea/Switzerland draw, we know the outcome of the tie. The tiebreaks should be dealt with in that section. Carcharoth 19:13, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
And Wikipedia get it right of course!
See BBC scenario for Group G and compare to Wiki scenario for Group G.
BBC: "If Switzerland draw with Korea and France score two or more goals, then both Switzerland and the French will qualify."
Wiki: "France [...] may qualify as either group winners or runners up, or be eliminated, after the consideration of tie-break scenarios, if they win and Korea and Switzerland draw."
The clear refutations of the BBC's statement are the following examples, where France do indeed score two or more goals, but can still be eliminated:
To be fair, the BBC probably meant to say If Switzerland draw with Korea and France win by a margin of two or more goals, then both Switzerland and the French will qualify.
But as it stands, the BBC statement is clearly wrong. Carcharoth 13:01, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
The BBC is wrong as usual. The Swiss are partying up large. [1] Wallie 23:06, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
