About the 2022 World Cup Round of 16
After a wild group stage that saw top teams like Germany, Denmark, Belgium, and Mexico knocked out early, the Round of 16 brings even more outlandish matchups that could lead to some shocking upsets.
On Day 1, the U.S. takes on the Netherlands in a matchup that isn’t as easy for the Dutch as many once thought, especially because the USMNT’s top man Christian Pulisic expects to play after leaving the team’s match against Iran due to injury. The second matchup of the day sees Group C winner Argentina take on Australia, the surprising second-place finisher in Group D.
On Sunday, we’ll see the Group D winners and one of the tournament favorites, France, take on Poland. The controversial Polish side will have its hands full with France’s Kylian Mbappe, who has his eyes locked on the World Cup’s Golden Boot — and the world’s first repeat champion since Brazil back in 1958 and 1962. The late match on Day 2 will be between Group B’s winner England and Group A’s second-place team Senegal.
Monday’s matches will see the shocking winners of Group E Japan face off against 2018’s runners-up, Croatia. Japan set the soccer world on fire with thrilling victories over Spain and Germany, who were expected to make deep runs in this tournament. We’ll also see Group G’s winners Brazil take on South Korea, who outlasted Portugal and Ghana in Group H to make it to the knockout rounds.
Lastly, Tuesday will feature Morocco and Spain in the early match, with Portugal and Switzerland playing the final match of the round. Switzerland narrowly escaped one of the most difficult “Group of Deaths” in World Cup history with a 3-2 victory over Serbia.
