This has been a World Cup of several shocks so far, and tonight the quarter finals have been decided.
This is how they will line up:
Brazil V Columbia
This will be a thrilling encounter no doubt, with Brazil probably winning.
France V Germany
This will probably be quite a good match, with both teams not suffering any major surprises in the group stage. Of course France, like every encounter they have had in the past, both on and off the pitch, will dominate the Germans (editors note: Please do not show your national bias in articles, reword this before publishing)
The Netherlands V The Czech Republic
Should have been Mexico V The Czech Republic. The cheating Dutch got through after a lucky penalty in the dying moments. Expect the Netherlands to cheat their way through to the Semis.
Argentina V Belgium
The assumption is Argentina will go through, but the wafflemen have been one of the surprises of the cup so far so it could be an interesting match*
*written during Belgium V USA, the Belgians are currently 2-0 up in injury time. Will be very surprised if this changes. No one expected the USA to get this far due to the ball being the wrong shape & having to play for a full 45 mins before a significant break in play.
There have been several shocks so far in the tournament having lost Spain, Italy, England and Portugal. However, all of the surprise teams are gone and it will be back to the usual drudgery of the Quarters and Semis until a predictable final.
