Group H

I don't know how much there is to say about a game where the Ukraine squeaked past Tunisia when the Carthage Eagles were denied a penalty kick that could have gotten them a draw. Spain replaced all eleven starters for their game against Saudi Arabia, and won with the reserves. Not exactly a strong finish for a weird group. Spain and the Ukraine both advance, to play France and Switzerland, respectively. God only knows how they'll play, since the Ukraine has been awfully inconsistent and Spain has a long history of not showing up for big games.

Ukraine 1-0 Tunisia
'70 Shevchenko (pen)

Spain 1-0 Saudi Arabia
'36 Juanito
