#1 New Zealand make it to the Crossovers
With the draw, New Zealand has not only pulled itself out of trouble, but also made it to the next round, while Spain, who were touted to strike big, shockingly made a humiliating exit, when France shocked Argentina by 5-3 in their last match to progress to the next round.
Trending
However, their road is a bit tough, since France's upset against Argentina has relegated them to the third place in the pool A. They now have to depend upon the result of Pool B matches to determine who will play them in the crossovers.
As of now, China, who have made their World Cup debut, is a surprising second, with two back to back draws, while Ireland is a close third in Pool B. If China manages to upset Australia, they shall face New Zealand in the crossover.
On the other hand, if Ireland manage to defeat England, they shall face New Zealand in the crossovers, provided China draws or loses against the defending champions.
