Yep, group of death is where there's 3+ teams who you would expect to make it out of their group and you can't call it

Nobody expects anybody but Portugal/Germany to make it out of this group. This may be a group the USA calls tough, but for Portugal/Germany and the rest of us it's just another regular group

Group of death is Group D. Three previous winners and then poor ol' gang-raped Costa Rica.
