JAPAN QUALIFY FOR THE GROUP OF SIXTEEN BECAUSE OF THIS NEW RULE.

At the world cup 2018 in Russia , Japan played Poland in their last group match. Now Poland won the match by a single goal, but as they did not win the other matches in their group they finished with just three points. While on the other hand Senegal lost to Colombia by a single goal. Now Senegal finished their group matches with four points and same goal difference s Japan. And as only one country could reach the group of sixteen matches, then F.I.F.A this year introduced this new rule, which sees which country had more red and yellow cards at the world cup. Sadly here Senegal had far too many yellow and red cards , and were considered the bad boy and Japan the good boy.
