Sweden won the group, and advanced to the second round, along with England.Manaschev Erlan https://www.rsssf.org/tables/2002full.html World Cup 2002 – Match Details RSSSF 3 July 2008 30 April 2026 The two sides were level on points, but Sweden won the tie-break on goals scored, and so won the group with England in second place. World Cup favourites Argentina and Nigeria failed to advance. Group F was considered by several commentators to be a 'group of death' due to the high rankings, and World Cup records of the teams in the group.BBC SPORT | WORLD CUP | Argentina v England | England's sweet revenge http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport3/worldcup2002/hi/matches_wallchart/argentina_v_england/default.stm Standings main WDL Standings complete FIFA 200 SWE ENG ARG NGA KO KO Tie-breaking criteria 1 2 0 4 3 1 2 0 2 1 1 1 1 2 2 0 1 2 1 3 SWE ENG ARG 1861 NGA Q green1 Advance to knockout stage Sweden advanced to play Senegal (runner-up of Group A) in the round of 16.
