    S Korea in need of a win here to advance , Nigeria looked awful first 2 matches , taking S Korea @ pk isnt a bad deal.

    South Korea realistically only needs a draw. Greece isn't going to get anything from Argentina. Anyone who thinks they're going to take it easy on the Greeks, should think again. Argentina could still f*ck up their top spot in the group if they mess up and lose.

    That being said, the OVER at 2 might be the best option. Nigeria's chance for advancement rides on winning big and Argentina destroying Greece. Not exactly out of the realm of possibilities, although somewhat slim. Nigeria should just be out to attack all match and at least give the fans a show.

      I agree South Korea should win this one, they seem a decent side and a defeat to the Argies is no disgrace. Nigeria also lost to Argentina but only by one goal and should have won against a dreadful Greece side but for an idiotic red card by Kaita, until that point Nigeria looked good for 3 points which would have left both teams on 3 points and making this a playoff for second place.
      Nigeria could still qualify as it is highly unlikely Greece will get anything off Argentina, meaning 3 points will see Nigeria through so long as they win by 2 goals (I believe).
      This is the only worry as given this Nigeria should set out to attack from the start, whereas South Korea know that in all likelihood bar a shock from Greece a draw will see them through, but SK do not seem like the kind of side to sit back and play for the 0-0 and could well catch Nigeria on the break with their pace.
      South Korea win for me

        I'm with eagles. The over 2 looks to be the best bet here.

          Current GD, south korea -1, nigeria -2, greece -1

          if greece loses they will be worse than -1
          if nigeria wins by a goal , SK -2, nigeria -1

          Assuming Greece loses, Nigeria only need a win to qualify

            the Korean team is going on be on FULL THROTTLE against this Nigerian team they are going to be on a FULL PLEDGED ATTACK going for the first STRIKE in the game. They will hit the Nigerians hard until they score. Once they score they will control the pace and tempo of the game completely and tear the Nigerian team apart and send another African Team home. The Koreans no what they have to do and there going to control there own destiny by winning the game and getting the 3 points to move onto the next round. In all reality the Korean team is getting ready for the round of 16 they are dam confident there going to win this match. Go KOREA!!!

              Correct, my mistake ...for some reason i was reading too much into the fact that SK have scored 3 to Nigeria's 1 and was thinking for some unknown reason they needed the 2 goal swing lol.....cheers for pointing that out plagy

                  Agreed suckerforparlays...SK are not the kind of team to sit back and hold on, they pass the ball well and will be going for it knowing that if they are to get the first goal it will knock the stufing out of Nigeria and should be game over....first goal is vital in this game I feel.

                    Straight from FIFA.com

                    As it stands
                    1. Argentina: 6 pts; GD +4; five goals scored.
                    2. Korea Republic: 3 pts; GD -1; three goals scored.
                    3. Greece: 3 pts; GD -1; two goals scored.
                    4. Nigeria: 0 pts; GD -2; one goal scored.
                    Next upNigeria-Korea Republic, 22 June, Durban, 20.30.
                    Greece-Argentina, 22 June, Polokwane, 20.30.
                    Qualifying criteriaAccording to the Regulations of the 2010 FIFA world cup South Africa™, the ranking of each team in each group will be determined as follows:
                    a) greatest number of points obtained in all group matches;
                    b) goal difference in all group matches;
                    c) greatest number of goals scored in all group matches.
                    If two or more teams are equal on the basis of the above three criteria, their rankings will be determined as follows:
                    d) greatest number of points obtained in the group matches between the teams concerned;
                    e) goal difference resulting from the group matches between the teams concerned;
                    f) greater number of goals scored in all group matches between the teams concerned;
                    g) drawing of lots by the FIFA Organising Committee.


                    Permutations

                    – If Argentina beat Greece and Korea Republic beat or draw with Nigeria, Argentina finish top and Korea Republic second.


                    – If Argentina beat Greece and Korea Republic lose to Nigeria, Argentina finish top with second place going to the side with the best goal difference out of Greece, Korea Republic or Nigeria.


                    – If Argentina draw with Greece and Nigeria beat Korea Republic, Argentina finish top and Greece second.

                    – If Argentina draw with Greece and Korea Republic beat Nigeria, Argentina finish top and Korea Republic second.


                    – If Greece beat Argentina and Korea Republic beat Nigeria, first and second places will go to the sides with the best goal difference out of Argentina, Korea Republic and Greece.


                    – If both matches end in draws, Argentina finish top with second place going to either Greece or Korea Republic (as both Greece and Korea Republic will have the same goal difference, second place will go to the side scoring the greater number of goals in all group matches).


                    – If Greece beat Argentina and Korea Republic fail to beat Nigeria, then Argentina and Greece go through with goal difference deciding who finishes top.
                    It's all dependent on what the goal differential is for an Argentina win over Greece.

                          Argentina beat greece, greece GD = -2 or worse

                          so I restate my point here, If Greece loses, Nigeria only needs a win to qualify, regardless of the score in the Greece - Argentina game

                          please correct me if i'm wrong.

                            I like Nigeria here

                            But over 2 goals is very solid IMO

                                    Play both games draws tomorrow. Argentina needs not to lose to get first place and South Korea needs not to lose to get 2nd place. It can't get any simpler than this.

                                            This is correct. But you can rephrase it. If Nigeria wins Greece only needs to draw to advance. Or if South Korea draws Argentina needs not to lose for South Korea to advance.

                                              A few people seem to like the over 2 goals, what does anyone think of both teams to score at just better than evens...reasonable bet imo as whoever scores first the other team will need a goal at least no matter what so... just after anyones elses input

They had the second game in hand but Kaita was stupid. Ayegbeni, Obassi. Obbina and Martins are top level strikers and can easily score 2-3 goals . Nigeria pk. Huge bet for me
