question, what would happen if all the teams in one of the groups had a draw every match?

Well the tie breaker is goal differential and that would be thrown out, so it might go to goals scored or goals allowed for the tie breaker. Im not sure.Originally Posted by needsomejays

a) greatest number of points obtained in all group matches;
b) goal difference in all group matches;
c) greatest number of goals scored in all group matches.
If two or more teams are equal on the basis of the above three criteria, their rankings will be determined as follows:
d) greatest number of points obtained in the group matches between the teams concerned;
e) goal difference resulting from the group matches between the teams concerned;
f) greater number of goals scored in all group matches between the teams concerned;
g) drawing of lots by the Organising Committee for the FIFA World Cup.
This is brought up every world cup, most of the time the ball has a disadvantage to the goalies as it is difficult to judge how the ball is going to move in the air. Personally I don't think the ball has much to do with it, teams just haven't been getting good shots on goal, add that with the weather and they haven't had that many optimal conditions in that many games so far. These are the best players in the world, the ball is only going to affect the game so much, I am tired of people using this as a crutch or an excuse.Originally Posted by Fear The Ibis
On pace to be the lowest scoring world cup ever. Thank you Adidas for this garbage ball you have provided.

I've watched about half the games and the play is clearly lacking. It's not that it's bad play. It's just boring play. Not very creative.Originally Posted by PlatinumFunk

long balls have become so hard. the ball just flies to much. i really do think its lowered the quality of the game. MAYBE if this ball had been in use for a year or so... it would be optimal. but the quality of play has just been poor and its one of the few variables to be blamed (assuming players dont just suck).
