Backpass Part 1 The 2014 FIFA World Cup has just come to the end of its first match week, and its been nothing short of exceptional. Even with two 0-0 draws coming in the past two days, the tournament as a whole is still averaging 2.9 goals per match—just one shy of 50 in total. Weve seen just three draws, a clutch of games won by big margins and no shortage of upsets, either. One of the biggest and most impressive statistics, though, is the sheer volume of comeback victories that teams have pulled off already. On Tuesday, Belgium became the sixth side to manage the feat. They fell behind Algeria due to a penalty in the first half before notching second-half goals from Marouane Fellaini and Dries Mertens en route to a 2-1 victory. Question What do you reckon is behind these World Cup comebacks? (Belief, Subs or Attacking Play)? NB 6 - There have been six comeback wins at the ongoing 2014 World Cup so far, already more than in the whole of the 2010 tournament (4) in South Africa. The all time record is 9 comebacks.
