The final day of group play in the World Cup is always one full of excitement as the last two games are played concurrently to avoid any teams resting players or getting a marked advantage over another. That also leads to high drama, as was the case with Group H on Thursday morning.
Morocco defeated group-leading Colombia, 1-0, in a game that finished minutes before the Germany-South Korea match went final. If Germany broke a 1-1 tie with South Korea, the Germans would move on. If South Korea won or forced the tie, that final spot would go to Morocco.
