Wrong scenarios[edit]
If Switzerland beats Honduras by a 2 goal margin, Switzerland is qualified despite the result between Spain and Chile. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.102.5.63 (talk) 17:55, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
I think there's another error here.- If Chile and Spain draw 0-0, and Switzerland and Honduras draw 1-1, both Spain and Switzerland have a similar score in the rankings. Now the cross chart states that Chile and Spain will advance, which is incorrect IMHO. Or what rule will be applied then?

To the anonymous original poster, you are correct that Switzerland would advance with a 2-goal victory. That is covered in the tiebreak note stating they will advance if the combined margin of their win and a Spain win is at least 3 goals. If Switzerland win by 2, then 3 is the least the combined margin could possibly be. LarryJeff (talk) 14:17, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
Line-up graphics/Starting vs. actual formations.[edit]
As we have mentioned in the Group A and Group F discussion pages, Chile's starting formation in their opening game against Honduras has been listed as 4-4-2 which couldn't be more wrong considering their 3-3-1-3 was very well documented before the tournament as one of the tactical novelties to look out for at this year's World Cup. Instead of using FIFA's tactical line-up document to reference how teams set out to play, I believe we should use the actual formation document which is available from the official FIFA index page of each match before creating line-up graphics. While I understand it would be extremely difficult for us to apply this to previous tournaments, and such information is not always available, I believe using this document wherever available in future will allow us to portray games more accurately if FIFA's tactical line-up documents prove to be incorrect.

Qualification error[edit]
Will someone please fix the coloured shadings as Chile are not assured of quaalification and Honduras have not been eliminated yet KP-TheSpectre (talk) 20:27, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
