Wild card Alexandra Eala of the Philippines stunned No. 2 seed Elena Rybakina of Kazakhstan 7-5, 6-4 on Thursday in the second round of the Berlin Tennis Open.
Rybakina is the reigning Australian Open champion and won Wimbledon in 2022. She opened the match by taking a 4-1 lead, but Eala broke Rybakina’s usually strong serve twice to take the opening set.
Unseeded American Madison Keys defeated Czech No. 7 seed Karolina Muchova, 6-4, 7-5 to advance to the quarterfinals. In Thursday’s other matches, Czech eighth seed Linda Noskova defeated Diane Parry of France 6-2, 6-2, and sixth-seeded Ukrainian Elina Svitolina beat Germany’s Eva Lys, 6-3, 6-2.
Lexus Nottingham Open
Fifth-seeded American Ann Li charged past Taylah Preston of Australia 5-7, 6-2, 6-2 in the Round of 16 in the WTA 250 event in the United Kingdom.
Czech fourth seed Marie Bouzkova won 31 of 38 first-service points (81.6%) to take out home favorite Hannah Klugman of Great Britain 7-5, 6-2.
In other Round of 16 matches Karolina Pliskova of the Czech Republic defeated American Caty McNally 6-4, 7-6 (3), and Switzerland’s Viktorija Golubic eliminated Turkey’s Zeynep Sonmez 7-5, 4-6, 6-4.
For this year’s World Cup, the field expanded to 48 nations, up from the previous number of 32. This means the field is divided into 12 four-team groups, and it also means that the knockout stage begins with the round of 32, and not the round of 16, as in previous World Cups.
That also means that teams that finish in third place in a group could still advance.
To complete the round of 32, in addition to the top two teams from each group, the eight best third-place teams will move on as well.
Here, we will be tracking the standings among the third-place teams.
World Cup third-place standings
Here are the latest third-place standings. Remember, the top eight advance to the round of 32.
Note: These are the third-place standings following Czechia-South Africa on Thursday, June 18.
How do World Cup third-place tiebreakers work?
Here is how FIFA will stack the third-place teams for potential tiebreakers:
If there are still ties after those four steps are applied, the teams still equal on points will be ranked according to the most recent FIFA World Rankings.
Applying those tiebreakers to some of the standings you see above, the Netherlands currently sit atop these standings thanks to that third tiebreaker, and the two goals they scored against Japan.
Then we can look at the four teams that played in 1-1 draws: Brazil, Belgium, Qatar, and Portugal. The next tiebreaker, following points, goal difference, and goals scored, is the team conduct score. Those first three teams each have two yellow cards, while Portugal secured three yellow cards in their 1-1 draw with DR Congo. So Portugal drops out, and the other three remain tied, and are therefore sorted by FIFA Rankings for the moment.
The next tie we can look at is between Czechia, Ecuador, and Panama, teams that lost and have a goal differential of -1. Czechia scored two goals, so they slot into seventh place, leaving Ecuador and Panama fighting for the eighth and final spot (for the moment).
Again, it comes down to the team conduct score between Ecuador and Panama. Ecuador currently has one yellow, while Panama has two. Ecuador slots in as the eighth team, while Panama drops out.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup will look a little different than previous installments.
Starting with the size of the field.

The Messi family has confirmed that Lionel Messi’s father Jorge is currently ‘going through a health situation’ and that he is progressing favourably under medical supervision.
“The Messi family informs that Jorge Messi is currently going through a health situation.
At this time, he is under medical supervision, recovering and progressing favorably within the condition he is experiencing,’ said the statement.
Lionel Messi ensured that Argentina’s World Cup defense got off to a winning start by scoring a hat-trick in a 3-0 win over Algeria. He was visibly emotional after scoring the opening goal, and later said that he was crying for personal reasons unrelated to sport.
The statement also criticised misreporting of Jorge’s condition in the aftermath of the match, saying, “The family would also like to clarify that only Jorge’s immediate family has real and accurate information regarding his condition. Therefore, any version, statement, or information that does not come directly from the family and its official channels should not be considered valid or truthful.
At times like these, we ask for responsibility, prudence, and humanity. A person’s health and the peace of mind of their loved ones should not be the subject of speculation or irresponsible media attention.”
