Looks like some strong teams in the last four teams left standing.

France and Belgium is a tough choice.
Both team have champions league players on either side.
But France has the upper hand being in the last dance before and winning it in 1998.

England and Croatia is not as hard to judge.
Premier league players tip the scales in England's favor.
And Russia was not a very strong team to begin with being the host team and all which was their only advantage. But Croatia had a tough time disposing of them and was forced to go at it in a shoot out in being the decider.

It will be England vs France for the right to raise the trophy in this 2018 World Cup. Cool

The semifinal match between France and Belgium will taste like the final one. The winner from this game will be the winner of this World Cup event as I guess.

Got a few nice winners on the England game, especially (the other) Harry popping up for the first goal. Four more games to go, so going to cross 100 bets throughout the tournament.

The 2018 FIFA World Cup ™ was the first time in 28 years with a 2-0 win over Sweden in the quarterfinals of the Harry Maguire and Dele Alli on Saturday 7 July 2018. Defender Maguire is high enough to turn Ashley Young's cross from a corner kick In the net and his first international goal after half an hour from the beginning of the first half. England goalkeeper Jordan Pi Pickford tried for many excellent attempts to deprive Marcus Berg and Viktor Claesson from scoring in the second half.

It is very sad to see the host nation Russia bow out of the tournament. They have played and fought very well, especially knocking out Spain. Penalties can be cruel, but what the hell was Smolov trying to do with a Paneka in such a crucial time of a tournament? Congrats to Croatia though - playing extra time twice in a row could have its toll against them when they face England.

Glory to Croatia and Glory to Russia.Incredible game players gave everything what they can
and even much more. Subasic is new Croatia national hero and Modric is the best player in the world together with  Mandzukic .Real hardly working  leaders not any pseudo superstars
Russia has shown incredible strength and they were so close
Will be interesting to watch Russia team in near future

2:1 it is going to be hard from Russia to change the situation and come to penalts in those last 15 min. They gonna get a big punch from Putin  Cheesy

Maybe Putin will come on as a sub to score the winner?  Grin. I feel a bit sad for Russia as they've played very well throughout the tournament. I guess there's still 15 minutes to go yet.

This game has been pretty much stalemate and I can't see anyone scoring a goal in extra time so looks like it's going to go to penalties.

Seems I spoke too soon and Croatia now just scored. On half left of extra time

Watching the Russia vs Croatia match right now. Surprised to see Russia attacking from the start. I thought that they would rather play defensively, like they did against Spain. Looks like we'll be having a result by the end of 90 minutes.

Russia vs Croatie 1-1, wouldn't expect Russian will score first but we saw many surprises here that everything could be seen.
One of those team have to score at least another 2 goals to kill the game otherwise they will go to extra-time or penalty kicks.
May the best win so we can see a good game vs England)

A fairly easy game for England. Sweden went on with their usual gameplan: defend and wait for a counter attack/set piece. Giving up possesion to a quality team like England that enjoys having ball posession isn't exactly the best plan but it's not like Sweden could do anything else given the quality of the players. However, as I said a few days ago, they were gonna need something else than just a defensive tactic against England or else they'll get exposed...and they did.

Once England scored the first goal, you just knew the match was over, Sweden never had a plan B in case they conceded first since they never faced that problem in this WC, and you could see how clueless the team was in the last 15' min of the first half. Second half was better, but Pickford was immense today. Overall, the better won and deserved to go through.
is a great fortune when Sweden can get through this stage. and England is an opponent that can not easily be defeated with a strategy implemented by swedish .. a strategy that seemed boring that it can not be applied if against the country with a myriad of stars such as England

England scored their first goal through a set piece and were impressive throughout. Although they missed a few opportunities towards the end of the first half, Sweden never looked close to challenging them. England's victory has put their government in a tough spot - would they continue boycotting the world cup in Russia? England have a possible semi-final against Russia lined up?

Today’s games -

Sweden vs England - England win
Russia vs Croatia - Russia win

Semi finals will look like this -

England vs Croatia
Belgium vs France

Russia win? I doubt this.They should be eliminated soon. Their game vs Spain sucked, all they did is take advantage of Spain playing really bad, they weren't finish any offensive moves, so all they did is have 11 men next to the goalkeeper at all times, then wait for a lucky opportunity (like Pique's stupid hand that caused a penalty)

I think Russia will get crushed by any of the remaining teams. Luka Modric is too good. Russia's only hope is using their very tall men to stop goals from happening and also win the fights against CRO defense's... but overall Russia is the worst team from all the 6 remaining teams.

I think not. Everyone in the league has a shot of winning the game as long as their hunger for the gold is there. Russia may be the worst but give them a shot to prove their worth as a contender for the title.

Russians were lucky a couple of times but that won't happen everyday. Croatia would easily outperform them.
England performed well today and seems like they'll be the winner of the 2018 world cup. Though France would give them a tough competition.


Who knows, maybe luck is on their side because they are the hosts of the tournament after all, and this always gives the players an extra motivation to do well in your land, specially when Putin is closely watching the match, you don't want to lose in that situation. They will whatever it's on their hands to stop Croatia, possibly another show of heavy defense, but Croatia is one of the most solid teams in the tournament, as a matter of fact Croatia is my favorite for the winner contender of the teams left

My top 3:

1) Croatia
2) France
3) Belgium

A nice won of Belgium yesterday, but the world cup is not over yet.
Brasil got many chances and it is really thanks to Courtois that Belgium is still in it. The first half of Belgium was good, but in the second half they were outplayed by Brasil.
