The equation in this game is pretty simple. Win the match and get through. But it changes when you consider drawing or losing the game. If Spain draw, they still go through, however, if Japan plays draws, they would have to hope that Costa Rica must draw against Germany and then on goal difference, Japan march through. If Spain loses this one, even then they could go through but in that case, they would want the other game between Costa Rica and Germany to end in a draw.
It will come down to scenarios even in Germany vs Costa Rica game. If Germany wins, they would hope that Japan loses against Spain. If Japan even manages to draw the game, then Germany must win by a margin of two goals or more. For Costa Rica, it is simple as well if they win the game. If they draw and Japan loses, even then the Costa Ricans can go forward. Other than that, there are no options.
