(These are South African times.) I couldn't cover the whole world, I'd go insane.


The underdogs showed us. Unless you support teams like Chile, Colombia, Greece, Costa Rica, Algeria, and any team you thought would not make it out of the group stages, you were surprised like the rest of us.


The champions, Spain are out of the tournament. We all know, you can't win it all. I wonder if they all left since at the end of the World Cup, the captain has to hand over the coveted trophy.


Most of these teams are favourites to move on to the next round. Unfortunately, it doesn't look promising for teams such as Greece, Switzerland and the USA. I'm not so sure about Algeria or Belgium who always win it late.


I won't mention my favourites in case they don't make it or win the title because I hate losing and I hate being wrong.
