Undav and Enciso Make Germany-Paraguay a Box-Tempo Test Germany against Paraguay can be read through two different penalty-box languages: Deniz Undav’s finishing rhythm for the favourite and Julio Enciso’s ability to turn limited touches into danger. That contrast gives the match a tighter edge than the rankings suggest. Germany will expect more possession, but Paraguay […]
Germany Meet Paraguay With the Ecuador Warning Still Open Germany’s last-32 tie against Paraguay arrives with the Ecuador warning still fresh, because a group-stage defeat left the favourite with a clear reminder about control under pressure. Paraguay do not need to dominate the ball to make this uncomfortable. Their route is to keep the match […]
Neymar Start Decision Leaves Brazil Balancing Rhythm and Reputation Neymar’s possible role against Japan has become a real Brazil question because Ancelotti must weigh status, rhythm and the shape that carried the group stage. The issue is not whether Neymar still matters. It is whether Brazil need him from the first whistle or as a […]
Brazil and Japan Turn Vinicius and Kubo Into a Knockout Speed Test Brazil’s round-of-32 meeting with Japan gives the World Cup a clean contrast between a favourite growing through Vinicius Junior and a Japanese team that has already shown it can attack without fear. The match is not a ceremonial first step for Brazil. Japan […]
Eustaquio Sends Canada Into a First World Cup Last 16 Canada opened the World Cup knockout stage with a 1-0 win over South Africa, and Stephen Eustaquio turned stoppage time into the biggest men’s national-team moment the co-host has owned at this level. The result was not only a late goal. It was a change […]
Austria Face Spain With Algeria Chaos Still Fresh in the Legs Austria’s 3-3 draw with Algeria sent them into a round-of-32 meeting with Spain, but the emotional cost of that six-goal match may matter as much as the opponent. The route is simple to name and difficult to manage. Austria qualified, survived late drama and […]
Portugal and Croatia Put Veteran Control Into a Knockout Collision Portugal and Croatia meet in the round of 32 with two veteran reference points, Cristiano Ronaldo and Luka Modric, sitting inside very different team questions. The match is not only a nostalgia frame. Portugal need better attacking balance after the Colombia draw, while Croatia carry […]
Argentina and Cape Verde Turn the Last 32 Into a Tempo Contrast Argentina’s perfect group stage now runs into Cape Verde, a knockout match that asks whether the favourite can keep rhythm against a team with nothing to protect. The fixture looks uneven on reputation, but the football question is more precise. Argentina want control […]
France and Sweden Carry a Finishing Argument Into the Knockout Round France against Sweden can become a finishing argument quickly, because both sides have enough structure to reach the final third but different ways of turning pressure into goals. France will expect to control long phases. Sweden will want the match to stay close enough […]
