@dailymailsport: Sweden star Anthony Elanga was left confused at full-time after his stunning strike earned a 1-1 draw with Japan in Arlington, despite the result being enough to secure Graham Potter’s side a place in the World Cup last-32. The winger, who was named man of the match and scored his second goal of the tournament, sat on the turf looking dejected as he mistakenly believed Sweden had been eliminated from Group F. It wasn’t until after the match that Potter realised Elanga had misunderstood the qualification permutations, joking in his press conference that “it couldn’t have been any clearer.” The result sees Sweden finish as one of the top third-placed sides and progress to the knockout stages, where they are likely to face France, with Potter insisting his side are ready for whoever comes next. #anthonyelanga #sweden #worldcup #japan #fifaworldcup

That’s the spirit needed. Players should play for a win, not some third place CHANCE.

Honestly I’d appreciate the upset mindset that we didn’t win. Sometimes accidents make the best futures

That's why this world cup is boring as shit.
Too many teams in it, qualifications are complicated, and the matches don't have enough importance, you can still qualify with a third spot.
Until the round of 16th no match worth watching.
