2022 FIFA World Cup (Part 1)

Right now the final looks like:

Brazil/Argentina v France/England/Spain/Portugal

Difficult to see any potential interloper. The Dutch are bang average. The Croats look clapped out.

This gives us eight potential finals:
1 Brazil v France
2 Brazil v England
3 Brazil v Spain
4 Brazil v Portugal
5 Argentina v France
6 Argentina v England
7 Argentina v Spain
8 Argentina v Portugal

In terms of BOX OFFICE appeal, I’d rank them

So what are the last 16/last 8 routes now?

Quarter 1
Holland v USA
Argentina v Australia

Quarter 2
Japan v Croatia
Brazil/Switzerland v South Korea


Quarter 3
Morocco v Spain
Portugal v Switzerland/Serbia/Cameroon/Brazil

Quarter 4
France v Poland
England v Senegal

It’s still theoretically possible Argentina could reach the final by beating Australia, the USA and Japan/South Korea.

But this would likely require Brazil to lose tonight, and Switzerland to have a thumping win.

I only saw highlights of the second Korea goal there.
Who was the rather rotund player trundling back for Portugal?

Messi vs Ronaldo for a World Cup will break the entire Internet. Has to be #1. Nobody cares about the English except themselves.

No Scorpio is right Messi v Ronaldo in the world cup final would be easily the biggest sporting event of all time.

All 4 Brasil forwards to have a shot on target. Jesus and Marti to score or assist.

Serbia v Switzerland surely the one to watch here with an eye on Brazil v Cameroon on another device.

Didn’t realise Mbeumo is from Cameroon.

Incredible start there to the Serbia Switzerland game, how is it not 1-0?

Did John Kenny mention Tadic having a shot saved in that scramble when it was the Swiss taking the shots?
