I don't have a high opinion of African and Asian teams, that's how. Almost everyone in these football threads knows that Poland is mediocre, but still... I expected them to be good enough to prevail against Japan and Senegal, and finish second in group H.

Hindsight is 20/20. Poland was sooooo Poland at this World Cup.

Eh, Senegal was obviously the cream of Africa, even if that doesn't mean much. Colombia was also a no-brainer, and yeah, Japan was surprising. That said, it was always obvious Poland was gonna Poland, at least to me, so I get that 5-point bonus too (except I don't, because Senegal and Colombia won't both go through).

I'm also certain Poland will win. That's just what they did in 2002 and 2006, lost their first two games and won their third after already being eliminated.
