VAR and penalties

Wins by Brazil, Nigeria, and Switzerland today. The VAR made an appearance in the Brazil - Costa Rica game and denied Neymar a penalty (which should have been awarded according to the time-honored tradition of the dubious penalty rule). The VAR did award a penalty to Iceland in the game against Nigeria... but in Group D they don't like to accept penalty kicks and they usually shoot them out on purpose.

Neymar cannot withstand the strong wind in the penalty area and falls to the ground.

What happened in today's standings? In the top-4 we find exactly the same people as yesterday (Papa Patrick 1st, Micaela 2nd, pcasal3 3rd, Daniela Moura 4th). Where is the rest? Right here.
