I'm rooting for Algeria. Russia have nothing to blame this time (unlike Euro 2012), Kokorin missed some sitters and Akinfeev prevented them from getting 3 points in the first game. Maybe in 2018.
3 really is correct, Nigeria, CIV, and Algeria are in super easy groups so those 3 good teams are really 2. Just let those 3+Ghana play a quadruple round robin with each other to see who gets the three, and give the other two spots to Concacaf, then we good
South Korea needs to get their shit together. I mean they ahve Son Heung, who is actually a breathable Bundesliga guy. Asian teams play worse against 10 men I guess.
