Actually, if Pool and Besiktas win (assume 1 goal each), it's:

Porto 8 +1
Pool 7 +7
Marseille 7 +1
Besiktas 6 -9

If that happens, Pool is through with a draw against Marseille due to goal differential.

If Liverpool only get a draw against Marseille and are even on points then Marseille go through because they have more points in matches played between those two teams since they won at Anfield.

Half Time, Liverpool will need to play a lot better in the 2nd half to win. The group looks like this at this point at half time:

Porto 9 pts
Marseille 7 pts
Besiktas 6 pts
Liverpool 5 pts

Um wow Liverpool could be last going into day 6 and have to rely on Besiktas not beating Porto and Liverpool will have to beat Marseille, interesting group

I'm definitely a soccer noob, so my knowledge is limited. But ever since I heard him call the 2002 World Cup, Tommy Smyth has done the best announcing I've heard from anyone in any sport.

Man, this tie-breaker stuff is a little confusing. But I think we Liverpool supporters would rather have Besiktas get no more than one point today (although they are now up 2-1). If they draw or lose, then our win today means we can sneak in with a draw in France provided that Besiktas beat Porto. Right?

EDIT: Just saw that Besiktas triumphed in Istanbul. Never mind.

Disregard that 4-1 to Liverpool & Besiktas won 2-1

Porto 8 pts
Marseille 7 pts
Liverpool 7 pts
Besiktas 6 pts

Liverpool still need to win on the last day, away games aren't easy at all in Europe so anything can happen yet, don't often see a group with all teams being able to qualify on last day

Celtic won 2-1 in Last minute too weeeeeeeeeee

Liverpool would advance with a tie if Porto ties. correct?
