The 16 best teams in the world are already defined and from now on they will be direct duels until they meet the world champion.
The keys are already known and on one side there will be selections in total they add 10 world titles, on the other there are only two, with l & # 39; Spain and England, who could eventually be found if both arrive at the semi-finals.
Once the eighth final duels were known, the pbadages and news of each team after the group stage, ESPN Digital made a power clbadification to take the crown at the end of the match:
1. Brazil
Before the start of the World Cup, with Germany and Spain, he was the main contender to win the title. The group phase has been overcome without setbacks and the best version of Neymar is still on the way. He has experience and youth in his team to take the glory in Russia.
2. Spain
The World Cup started as one of the best contenders, but doubts began as soon as Julen Lopetegui left the technical direction. Fernando Hierro remained in charge, but that did not stop the Red Fury from suffering further to qualify in the group stage.
3. England
Perhaps never loving now in a format of 32 selections had a way so open as to reach the final minimum. In the group stage, they have proven to be always competitive and precise, something that they must maintain in the elimination duels to reach the last instances. In their trip, they have to fight against Colombia, Spain or Croatia, but they avoid Brazil, France, Argentina or Portugal.
4. France
It is one of the most comprehensive teams of Russia, but it has not yet exploited its conditions. In each of its lines is well covered and by quality does not generate doubts as if by the inexperience of the team in general. In the end, only one of these two options will prevail
He added the nine points in contention in the group stage with everything and a 0-3 win against Argentina who went around the world. He has probably the best midfielder on the planet with Luka Modric and Ivan Rakitic, who has dominated Russia so far. It's a solid team that has great potential for advancement, although the road can be found in Spain.
6. Belgium
Among the most dominant in the group stage, but being in first place in their sector played "against" being placed in the most complicated block towards the final, Since on the road, they can find people like Brazil, France, Argentina or Portugal. It's your time to show that you can make this leap in quality.
7. Uruguay
In a group where they were budgeted to go to Octavos, they beat him with a grade, thanks to the defensive strength and security provided by men like Diego Godín and José María Giménez. In addition, the combination between Luis Suárez and Edinson Cavani is deadly for any defense.
8. Argentina
They were within 10 minutes of being eliminated in the group stage, but in the end they reacted to go to Octavos and continue with the illusions loaded. The Lionel Messi factor is enough to be one of the favorites to win the Cup, although yes, it will take a lot of help from his teammates.
Never looks like the big favorites, but there is one decisive factor that nobody has in the world: Cristiano Ronaldo. The Real Madrid striker is able to define a closed battle at any time and is regularly supported by an organized and well defended team. The perfect example was the last championship of Europe.
10. Colombia
In his first match, he suffered a setback against Japan, but he retired against Poland and Senegal to win two games in which he scored four goals without receiving one in return. With figures like James Rodriguez or Radamel Falcao in the attack, his options become illusory with transcendence in Russia.
11. Sweden
Among the strongest selections currently in Russia. They work as a real team in each of their lines, although one problem would be that they do not have a world clbad character who, in case of difficulty, avoids them with a genius.
12. Mexico
In his first two games, he showed his strength, but in the third, he was very vulnerable to a strong and orderly Swedish team that scored three goals . One more of their chances is that against Brazil they have shown in the past that they know how to play and that they are able to defeat him, but this remains an unknown that will come out.
Always competitive and quality in the team with men like Grant Xhaka or Xherdan Shaqiri, but who also have their constant insouciance in defense, to the extent that they have received four goals in their three matches.
14. Denmark
He was one of the best of his group with France, but before him he will have the complex challenge of defeating a motivated and perfect Croatia in the group stage. If they manage to defeat it, then Spain will arrive, so the road to the final does not seem simple.
They are the locals, but in front of them, they have the not easy challenge of leaving Spain on the road in the eighth final. His first two games were very good and they exploited their offensive power, but that does not seem to be enough to eliminate the "Red Fury".
16. Japan
The team that spent the group phase with more drama than any other. In fact, he resorted to fair play and had two warnings less than Senegal to keep the octave pbad. Against Belgium will obviously not start as a favorite.
