in the round of 16 there are no surprises, the teams that were going to win have won, now there are 4 more matches left, we can see surprises like Japan that is beating Croatia right now, 1-0 in the first half.

Only real potential for a surprise in this round would be between Morocco and Spain. Portugal vs Switzerland is a game between teams of similar caliber, and a lot of the earlier games were predictably one sided. Japan vs Croatia was obviously close, but Croatias performance can be all over the place at times.

argentina is going from less to more, they started losing the first game of the world cup against saudi arabia, now they are in the quarter finals and face the netherlands, a tremendous game is coming, i hope argentina wins.

The Dutch already spottet a weak spot in the Argentinean team, Messi. Sounds strange, but it is a fact that he does nothing defensively, and that can hurt his teams. One reason Barcelona got such drubbings from Bayern in the last years. The defense was just overwhelmed

If it comes down to penalties, the Dutch are doomed.They are notoriously bad at those shootouts, while Argentina is at least decent. Last game between those two at a World Cup, semifinal in 2014, was decided on penalties. Argentina made it to the final.

i think that if argentina plays like in the previous match they will beat the netherlands, we know that the netherlands also have good players, it will be a great match, very hard fought from the first minute.

I got the prediction at the end of the Croatia - Brazil match, but not the score. I put an x with 2 - 2. Normally, it's very difficult and we can't get such results very often, but at least i didn't bet on Brazil's victory, to lose...

i would like messi and argentina to be world champions, what leo needs is to win the world cup and this is his last world cup, it would be unfair for him to retire without winning it, but let's keep giving everything, there is still the semifinals.
