The group stage is over, the round of 16 is over and we have had some of the best games which remain in the history of football. This World has been so exciting that this World Cup might be regarded as one of the best World Cups in the modern era.
There have been some of the most exciting matches and some of the worst heartbreaks. But the victorious move on to the next round while the defeated head back to home.
After the completion of the knock round of 16 here are the fixtures of the teams who have qualified in the Quarter Finals of Brazil World Cup 2014.
Brazil vs Columbia
This may seem a easy match for Brazil but James Rodriguez might have other things to say since he has been a star performer for Columbians with Redamel Falcao out injured. Brazil with winning some tough games are there in the next round and want this trophy the most. Let us hope for another great showing from Columbians and some great attacking football from the Samba Boys.
France vs Germany
Probably the toughest match in this round., two big teams going head to head. France may not be favorites but they have shown, even without their star player Ribery, they are still a tough team with a lot of talent. Germany will need to improve their woeful shooting to beat the French
Netherlands vs Costa Rica
Sneijder, Van Persie and Robben, this trio has been pivotal with some exceptional young talent in the Dutch side. Netherlands were expected to do well after last wc’s defeat in the finals but the surprise package of this World Cup is Costa Rica, they topped a tough group and by defeating Greece they are the going hard and far.
Argentina vs Belgium
Two teams who have not been upto the mark, but have reached this far with some exceptional individual talent in their side. Argentina with their Messi magic are hoping to win it all in their rival’s country that is Brazil. This can be a tough encounter since both teams have strong individual talents. Let us see which team has got what they are praised for.
