Look at Russia's group and its match schedule.......also......the strongest team in that group is Uruguay.......Russia's 3rd and final match is against them.....they played the two, Arabic, Muslim nations 1st....beating Saudi Arabia 5 - 0......Whitey on top....is what they are saying....they were beating Egypt 3 - 0 .......Egypt scored a goal late......the game ended 3 - 1..........

Goal difference does make a difference....in a tie breaker.....i think the 1st tie breaker is offensive goals scored......so a result like 3 - 0 Croatia over Argentina really favors Croatia..........b/c that is + 3............and again.....at times i am over exaggerating certain things to make a point.......investigate things yourselves.....i think they are fixing things....
