    It wasn't looking good for Chris Sutton with his predictions yesterday. In the first three games, he went the wrong way in each in trying to pick a winner.

    But in the fourth and final game, he nailed his prediction for Spain v Germany, getting the 1-1 scoreline spot.

  5. Belgium face battle to qualifypublished at 08:10 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2022

    This is how Group F looks after the second round of games - and it does not make pretty reading for Belgium.

    It is even worse for Canada, who are already eliminated with a game to spare.

    Spain 1-1 Germany

    The resurgence of the traditional number nine?

    Alvaro Morata and Niclas Fullkrug came to the fore in Spain and Germany's 1-1 draw, which leaves Group E interestingly poised prior to Thursday's final group.

  7. Davies breaks Canada's World Cup duckpublished at 07:59 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2022

    Croatia 4-1 Canada

    A proud moment for Canada.

    Alphonso Davies put Canada ahead after 1 minute and 8 seconds, scoring their first ever goal at the World Cup in their fifth match.

    Things didn't quite go to plan after that mind for John Herdman's side.

  8. Croatia crush Canada's hopespublished at 07:52 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2022

    Croatia 4-1 Canada

    Croatia crushed any hopes Canada had of progressing in Qatar, with the 2018 finalists fighting back after Alphonso Davies got his country off to a flying start by scoring their first ever World Cup goal.

    Bayern Munich winger Davies put Canada ahead after only 68 seconds, darting into the box and meeting Tajon Buchanan's cross with a towering header in the game's first attack.

    Croatia did not panic after falling behind, though, and created numerous chances, with striker Andrej Kramaric seeing a goal ruled out for offside.

    The former Leicester player did equalise when he found the net with a first-time angled shot from Ivan Perisic's pass, and Marko Livaja put Croatia ahead with a rasping drive from the edge of the box.

    Kramaric was denied by Milan Borjan's fine save in the second half, and at the other end, Dominik Livakovic acrobatically tipped over Jonathan David's long-range curler.

    Hoffenheim frontman Kramaric got his second of the game by coolly converting into the far corner, and substitute Lovro Majer wrapped up the match by netting in injury time.

    Canada may have scored a goal, but they are still waiting for their first point in a World Cup group match and now cannot qualify for the last 16.

    Belgium 0-2 Morocco

    BBC Sport at Al Thumama Stadium, Qatar

    Belgium are not out of this World Cup yet but Sunday's shock defeat by Morocco posed more questions about their ageing team. Even boss Roberto Martinez admitted himself they have big problems.

    For starters, two of their famed 'golden generation' are only bit-part players in Qatar, while another - Kevin de Bruyne - is not just struggling for form, but has seemingly written off his side's chances of lifting the trophy.

    While De Bruyne toils, Eden Hazard was only able to play an hour here before being replaced - to avoid entering what Martinez calls the 'red zone' of risking yet another injury.

    Key striker, and Belgium's record goalscorer, Romelu Lukaku is also only ready for cameo appearances after his long-standing thigh injury.

    More serious issues, though, appear to lie in the team's mindset than in the treatment room.

    While victory over Croatia onThursday will still send them into the last 16, Martinez admitted his side are currently playing like they are "afraid to lose" rather than being ready to win.

  14. Japan slip to Costa Rica defeatpublished at 07:19 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2022

    Japan 0-1 Costa Rica

    In Group E's earlier game on Sunday, Japan missed the chance to seal their place in the knockout stages as Keysher Fuller's late goal earned Costa Rica a smash-and-grab victory.

    After beating Germany in their opener, many expected Japan to account for a Costa Rica side reeling from a 7-0 thrashing by Spain.

    However, Japan boss Hajime Moriyasu opted for rotation over continuity, making five changes, and that resulted in a subdued performance and a scoreline that blew the group wide open.

  15. Wildcard Fullkrug comes up trumps for Germanypublished at 07:11 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2022

    Hansi Flick's World Cup wildcard came up trumps against Spain as Germany's fight for survival here in Qatar goes to their final Group E game against Costa Rica.

    Werder Bremen striker Niclas Fullkrug, at 29, was the oldest outfield player to make his Germany debut for 20 years when he scored as they beat Oman in their only warm-up game before the start of their World Cup campaign.

    Germany's spirits had been lifted by Costa Rica's shock win against Japan, which meant defeat by Spain at Al Bayt Stadium would not automatically mean elimination.

    Fullkrug's goal to give them a 1-1 draw proved important both in the context of the World Cup and psychologically.

  16. A tale of two strikerspublished at 07:05 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2022

    Spain 1-1 Germany

    There was perhaps a bit more intrigue than excitement in the Spain v Germany game last night. More hype than drama.

    It was ultimately a game of two sub strikers.

    Alvaro Morata gave the Spain the lead...

    And Niclas Fullkrug levelled for Germany...

    It could easily have been different. Manuel Neuer came to Germany's rescue early on...

    And VAR came to Spain's aid to rule out an Antonio Rudiger header...

    The upshot is that a win for both Spain (against Japan) and Germany (against Costa Rica) in their final games will see both qualify.
