Belgium is on, Spain is on, England is on and France is on as the biggest teams from Europe competing now are on course for why not and I am sure one of these teams will be the finalist or the winner of this edition. Belgium totally destroyed USA yesterday night as so far USA had played easy opponents and the fact that Turkey beat them was a signal that they were not going to go that much further here in the tournament. Normally we are in that hot stage of the tournament now that we all expect very beautiful football.

Belgium comfortably defeated the United States 4-1 and are now in the quarterfinals. The United States had come this far very well, but they couldn't withstand Belgium's quality play. Belgium played magnificently in this match. To be honest, I had some doubts about Belgium after seeing their previous matches, but they managed to win without much difficulty. Now a tougher match awaits them in the quarterfinals.

It was a game where the US defense was very poor. The first goal the US conceded could have been avoided; the defense allowed the Belgian player to get past many US players and still pass to another player who scored. When the US scored the equalizer, it seemed like it would be a difficult game for both teams, but again the US defense made another serious mistake and conceded the second goal. The US coach was so angry about the second goal that he even kicked water bottles.

Then came the third goal, another serious mistake by the US defense.



It was a very comical goal, and to top it off, they did it again. Yes, the US defense once again gifted the ball to a US player, this time it was Lukako's turn to be gifted the ball, and he scored the fourth goal. Honestly, I don't know what was going through the heads of the US players during that game; they looked like they'd never played football before.

Today Argentina and Egypt will face each other where Argentina is the favorite. But although Argentina won the last match but they could not play as expected they will have to try to do better. Anyway the team that wins this match will qualify for the quarter finals. Since this is a round of 16 match and both the teams are strong so it is expected that the match will be competitive. Now considering all the aspects I want to keep Argentina ahead so I think Argentina will win and qualify for the quarter finals. I have bet on Argentina in this match and let's see which team can win.

Argentina are still undefeated in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, but I think that even though this team is strong on paper in today's match, Egypt may be able to put in an impeccable performance and they could be a hindrance for Argentina. We can already see proof of this in the fact that an Egyptian player scored a goal in just 15 minutes against Argentina, perhaps this could be the winning goal for Egypt today. Egypt's performance against Argentina in today's round of sixteen match shows that they are very hungry for victory and I noticed that this team was playing with everything they had and playing artistic football against Argentina, to be honest everyone has probably seen that Argentina's defense was very weak in this World Cup, as a result of which they conceded two goals against teams like Cabo Verde and today they also had a poor performance and today they are still performing poorly in the Round of Sixteen matches.

Hehe, I bet on England to qualify at odds of 1.81, and to be honest I expected a less dramatic game, but as you can see, Mexico, even with the majority, couldn't do anything. Mexico had an impressive winning streak, not conceding a single goal, and the game was held at high altitude, so in my opinion, the odds were heavily skewed in Mexico's favor. England may be serial losers, but the overall quality of their players is significantly higher than Mexico's. As you can understand, I didn’t regret taking the risk  

You took quite a risk there, mate, well done.
In the end, England got away with it, but they took a massive risk playing a man down against opponents who failed to capitalise on that advantage. Quansah made a very serious mistake, perhaps down to a lack of international experience in such a decisive match.
I still the point of view that England side is missing Cole Palmer or Mason Greenwood, players who add unpredictability and who could really unleash Bellingham’s creativity.

There is risk even in bets with odds of 1.1   In this case, I don't think the risk was higher than usual, on the contrary, I'd be willing to make this bet any day, every day. Mexico was overvalued due to circumstances and a lucky coincidences, not due to their actual quality. Just look at the national team rosters and the clubs they play for - it's different levels. England's true value should have been around 1.60, no higher. So I placed my bet and went to bed calmly, knowing I'd win in the morning.

Being a big team does not make a team win, efforts does. It may surprise us that the least team not expected might win this world cup
Prediction most time seems very easy to do but difficult to accomplish. AsEgypt is leade 1:0 against Argentina now, the game might just change that Argentina will lead by 2:1 against Egypt. Anything can happen in the process of the game.
Some of the big teams you mentioned may or may not get to the finals. Let's hope that we are not let down by our favorite teams and catch the fun.

Maybe he was trying to form Manuel Neuer because I know it's him that has this kind of highlights and confidence mostly in the game. What exactly was he thinking coming out that far from his position against a team that's probably more than them in terms of quality and experience. Although the US tried in the competition, they exceeded my expectations because this country is not known for football, I think this is practically their best run in the competition. They tried I must say though, I wasn't expecting them to go even this far. Mexico is the only football nation that I know of among the 3 host.

Belgium comfortably defeated the United States 4-1 and are now in the quarterfinals. The United States had come this far very well, but they couldn't withstand Belgium's quality play. Belgium played magnificently in this match. To be honest, I had some doubts about Belgium after seeing their previous matches, but they managed to win without much difficulty. Now a tougher match awaits them in the quarterfinals.

Belgium smashed 4 goals to the USA Co-Host of the tournament in their home stadium.  Charles De Ketelaere scored an early goal for Belgium in the 9th minute and second in the 33rd minute. Malik Tillman scored the only goal for the USA in the 31st minute. In the second half Vanaken scored the 3rd goal in the 57th minute and Lukaku scored the 4th in the added time of the second half 90+3 . Charles De Ketelaere was named as player of the match. The USA kept 56% possession no big chances created 7 shots and 0.63xG. Belgium with 44% possession created 4 big chances,2.01xG and 15 shots. Belgium will now face Spain in the Quarter finals.

Great win for Belgium as they sent the host backing as they demolished the united states of America by 4:1. Even though Belgium has not lived up to expectations from the initial stage of the world cup Belgium showed that, the united states is not a match for them when it comes to the beautiful game of football. I think that alot of people are actually happy about the exit of the united states because of the red card, which was upturned by FIFA just to please United States president Donald Trump. Many saw this move by FIFA as bending the rules just to favour one team because they are looking for favour, so this lose just confirmed that sometimes you can't cheat the process and go cut free.

Messi continued to shine in the World Cup. He made direct contribution to 2 goals even though he missed a penalty. He has reached 8 goals and remains the top scorer.

Do you think he would decide to play in the next World Cup as well or would this be his last one? I guess this is the last World Cup we are watching him and Ronaldo both.

And I'm afraid Portugal are out of the tournament already.

De Ketelaere was dominant person in this game because he did 2 goals for the team in this match and he did great effort in this match. The stats of that team was also good in this match because shots of that team were  15 in this match and 7 shots were on target and possession percentage of that team was 43 percent in this match and passes of that team were 390 in this match and De Ketelaere did his second goal at 9 minutes of the match when it was need of the team and he did great effort in this match and he did goal again at 33 minutes. Tillman was only person who did goal for the team and he did goal at 31 minutes when team requirement was goal but after that no player could do goal in this match.

He was the reason Argentina won the last World Cup. He might be the reason why they might win again. He is 39 years old but very fit, and by the next World Cup he will be 43. I guess if his fitness remains the same, then he might be able to play the 2030 World Cup. He is still the player who can single-handedly take Argentina to the finals. Portugal's loss was an upset, and that team only relies on the star player. Except for Ronaldo, I do not recall any player in that team who has the capability to attack the other side's goalpost.
