Looks like England's opponents for the round of sixteen will be decided on fair play; Uzbekistan and Venezuela have identical records as third place teams in groups B and F respectively. W 1, D 1, L 1. Goals for 5, goals against 5.
Wonder if this is the first time it has been necessary to use fair play to decide who goes through?

How have the they decided who plays who? We got the better deal, judging by rankings...ForeverAddickted said:Both have gone through...? - We'll be facing Uzbekistan - Venezuela against the Argies.

Please dont try and make me explain it
Its so confusing, as it depends which Groups the best 3rd place teams come from, which decides who they play0 -
It appears it was set out pre tournamentAlgarveaddick said:

Whichever 4 3rd placed teams qualified they had their matches pre set(guessing via a pre tournament draw of some kind)
Once they knew which groups the 4 3rd place teams had come from they knew which set of fixtures that had to use
