The Balkans will end up however with a confident host selection after scoring history when they reach the quarter-finals, and the British with a Sweden no less strengthened in its solid block concept .
The other clash, precisely with which the quarter will begin this Friday, will face in Uruguay and France, Nizhny Novgorod, two world champions who have so far left very good feelings.
The big confrontation of this round is, on paper, the meeting between Brazil and Belgium (Kazan, Friday, 9:00 am local time), between the favorite and the big competitor to put an end to such a condition.
Belgium has a reach of gorgeous footballers who want to give that quality jump, something that has withstood it in previous tournaments. In addition, with the help of Spanish coach Roberto Martínez, he found an attractive and effective football and tactical model.
The Belgians are the tournament's top scorers, with twelve goals, and threaten the Tite system, which pledges to unite the balance and magic of its attacking men, the Neymar, Philippe Coutinho, Willian and Gabriel Jesus.
The worst news for the Brazilian coach is that he will not be able to count, by sanction, with this player who gives this balance the medulla, Real Madrid Casemiro. Instead, he expects to see the physical evolution of the injured Marcelo and Douglas Costa to find out if he can count on them in case he needs it or during the accident .
The outbreak of Kylian Mbappe, accompanied by an Antoine Griezmann who still has to "take off", and the dizziness of the two presents itself as a threat to the cadre that Washington Tabarez organizes to make from Uruguay one of the most difficult teams to beat. In fact it is, with Brazil, the one who is the most fit (one).
The Uruguayan team knows that she can not let France run, that she must minimize mistakes to avoid, as in Argentina, which men like. Mbappe, Griezmann and company exploit their speed
Meanwhile, Celeste trusts Luis Suarez's sensation of goal and awaits news of Edinson Cavani's injury, left calf injury during the match against Portugal . If it does not reach the point, it would be a low more than remarkable
On the side "friendly", theoretically easier than the World Cup, England and Croatia appear as great references, although, as has been demonstrated in this tournament, the subject of "no small enemy"
Croatia has suffered untold against Denmark after a convincing group phase. He needed penalties and a glorious Danijel Subasic to progress and get closer to this historic team that shone in France98
Luka Modric, Ivan Rakitic and company will have to do a patience exercise before the hostess Russia , which surprised everyone world to get rid of Spain, also in the penalty shootout, after having with some calm resisted the game combinativo, although extremely slow in the image of Fernando Hierro.
Croatia must give more speed to the balloon circulation against what is presumed it will be a new Russian wall, this time in Sochi, which will try to cancel, as against Spain, the technical superiority of the opponent and will take advantage of some isolated actions to blow up the bench.
England returns to the halls with suffering and anguish. Colombia, who had won but imposed extra time and penalties thanks to a late goal from Yerry Mina, Barcelona's defender, demanded the maximum from Gareth Southgate's team.
The set of "Three Lions", however, went through a historic curse, shots on goal. He eventually overcame one, and now faces full moral morale in Samara against a Sweden who has also become a team model.
The fact of not having the reference player in recent years, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, had an impact in favor of the block. The Nordic team is an authentic team with capital letters, united in effort, focused as little and dangerous in the attack.
They will not make it easy for England.
