Germany has disappeared. For the fourth time in five World Cups, the defending event was bounced from the tournament after the group stage, sent as a stunning 2-0 win South Korea on Wednesday, the winner of the house in 2014. The result inspired some incredible scenes – such as South Korea led to the victory of Mexico to advance the round of 16 knockout stage. So people in Mexico City, which would make football fans as possible all reasonable did: he walked out of the Embassy of South Korea Berserker, while the general desire Han Byoung-jin, down tequila shots (met). In Brazil – which is not yet quite got over 7-1 humiliation of the home team during the 2014 World Cup semi-finals in Germany – staged several Maniacs a mock funeral for Germany, on a street that explodes with coffins draped in the flag German. Sometimes sports fans are the best. Senegal is also gone. But how can you not feel sympathy, given the way in which they were eliminated? The Lions of Teranga lost their final game in Colombia, 1-0, which means that both Senegal and Japan with four points in the group stage ended. Only one team could advance – Colombia topped the group – FIFA Byzantine rules tiebreak brought into play. The first is: Goal differential. But both Senegal and Japan scored four goals and gave the group stage. Next: stored most of its objectives. The metric may be related, too. Most logical first tiebreaker – head to head results between the two teams – down on FIFA list of any reason of concern here: Japan and Senegal played for 2-2 Sun on June 24 for the first time in the history of world Cup, the tie-break “fair play” came into play. Japan advanced because referees are six yellow cards in Senegal, but only four in Japan. Of course, this is the World Cup has taught us an important lesson: behave on the field, or it can cost you. However, FIFA must create better playoffs. (Here are some ideas worthy of results against a group of top teams, two teams or fly for a pre-match penalties before the knockout phase.) That the poker card. The group stage offered to have its share of excitement to be sure. But now the World Cup moves into the knockout stages. Sixteen teams remain, and it’s win or go home. No other bonds mean sanctions – flawed, but exciting – are sure to determine some winners. This is the time that a practical guide for 2018 FIFA World Cup knockout round. You can still watch American public binge missing undoubtedly the group stage triple-header newspaper, though possibly productivity broadcast hours in sweltering convenient (so what?). Last week was even better: four games a day. The knockout stage is bittersweet in this sense. The stakes are higher, but there are fewer games from that point. round of 16 is still, it gives the public a lot of sports watching distraction. Enjoy four days in a row doubled in the table below, all times ET. Saturday, June 30 France against Argentina at 10:00 on Fox Uruguay against Portugal 14:00 on Fox Sunday, July 1 in Spain against Russia at 10:00 on Fox Croatia vs Denmark 14:00 of Fox Monday, July 2 Brazil vs. Mexico 10:00 FS1 vs. Belgium Japan, 14:00 3rd on Fox Tuesday, July Sweden vs Switzerland 10:00 on FS1 Colombia against England, geopolitical sizzle on Fox 2:00 Knockout phase terminals are not (thanks to the American football incompetence, Russia and the United States in the field , for example, it is not loaded with a view). However, there is much intrigue on the board. Brazil and Argentina are rivals with blood, and they could meet in the semifinals. How about half a Denmark-Sweden, in a battle for Scandinavian supremacy? A final England France would be paid some bills. A Spain-Portugal rematch worth rooting for, well – he played the team to a 3-3 draw in the group stage, with Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick for Portugal pull over. The game was one of the best in World Cup history. Just picture them meeting for the championship (and fine, go ahead and image Ronaldo tearing his shirt after winning his first world championship, too). 1966 English Renaissance defeated, 4-2, to win England West Germany in the final of the first country, and still only, World Cup. Britain has not been this weak performance since 1990 in the semifinals – in relative terms – not too good, not sit in London and Liverpool. But England has looked impressive in Russia. The Three Lions won the first two games, 6-1 trouncing of Panama in the process. Also on Thursday loss to the success Belgium: Belgium prevented from behind in second place in its group finish, England, Brazil, five times world champion and home to superstar Neymar Jr., in his face. An advanced race of the world championship for England, however, can trigger a national emergency. A shortage of carbon dioxide has a forced rationing beer in British patent. Pubs no pints for a World Cup final are like people without heart. Video Star This World Cup has established VAR – Video-Assisted referee – in the global dialect, which was a positive development. Check for all the hand-wringing about the delays replay officials, and the penetration of the technology, which is always a sweat and tears her athletic endeavors, the bottom line is this: So far VAR helped get some important calls to correct. This is always worthwhile. Here’s a safe bet: a knockout will come to play a controversial decision. And video review will be a fair result. And bets Speaking … Who, you may ask, this World Cup will win? Brazil is the favorite, according Oddschecker.com, to 15.4, followed by Spain with 19.4 and Belgium at 15:02. A Brazil-Belgium game quarter-finals would be a potential championship level game being in a previous round: Return Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany from injury, not shocked Belgium survived to see his plan to challenge – and the country the first world Cup Trophy Increase July 15 in Moscow.
