There is a lot to be determined in Group C, but one thing for sure, Mexico needs a lot of help to advance.

Five Thirty Eight has the following projections:

Group C

Argentina 77% chance to advance

Poland 75% chance to advance

Saudi 31% chance to advance

Mexico 17% chance to advance

Two draws would do nicely here.  Poland would move on as group winners and Argentina would qualify in second place. 

Group D

France over 99% chance to win group

Denmark 51% chance to advance

Australia 45% chance to advance

Tunisia 4% chance to advance

France is going to move on as group winners.  Denmark likely moves on with a win against Australia while Australia only needs a draw against Denmark to progress, in each case assuming that goalless Tunisia doesn't somehow beat France.

In any event, it is quite possible that the winner of Netherlands-USA will play the winner of Poland-Australia in the Quarterfinals.

I guess you're saying that's the most likely matchup across USA/Netherlands but it could be several different matchups.

For you soccer nerds .. what is the emblem on Tunisian jersey shoulders and right chest, and shorts that looks two naked women sitting back to back?

One dude. One woman.

For real I never ever looked closely at that logo and I too thought (hoped) it was two gals.

GROUP D

France has qualified with one game to spare after beating Denmark. They will win the group with a win or draw vs Tunisia, or if Australia does not beat Denmark. If the French lose and Australia wins, goal differential and the subsequent tiebreakers will decide the group winner.

Australia qualifies with a win against Denmark in its last game and is eliminated with a defeat. It also qualifies with a tie unless Tunisia beats France. If the Socceroos draw and Tunisia wins, goal differential will come into play.

Denmark qualifies if it beats Australia, unless Tunisia beats France and wins the tiebreaker.

Tunisia can qualify if it beats France, but only if the other game is either a tie or a Denmark win, in which case it would still need to win a tiebreaker.

Is it me, or does France look like their backups are just fucking with Tunisia?

It looks like their backups are getting beat and lucky to not be down at half. 

Keep in mind when a team like England or France plays it's 2nd team those guys are playing for PT. They're almost less likely to not play hard.
