## Resource

The World Cup group stage ended in heartbreak for several fan favorites as teams like South Korea, Scotland, Türkiye, and Tunisia crashed out early, while Portugal narrowly missed top spot. South Korea’s coach was fired and the president demanded answers after a third-place finish, Scotland’s historic Haiti win couldn’t overcome a cautious approach against Morocco and Brazil, Türkiye’s endless shots went unanswered, Tunisia’s early coach firing didn’t help, and Portugal’s hopes were dashed by shaky performances — all setting the stage for a brutal knockout phase.
