They're not looking like QF material right now, the Moroccans are just everywhere and have more balls in dangerous areas so far, we could see the first R16 shock today. With the way both teams are playing, Morocco will most likely advance unless Spain's second half substitution changes the game.

Morocco seems to have gone into limp mode and tells me they will fancy their chances on penalties, but they shouldn't underestimate this young Spanish side that only need one good chance to progres into the quarter finals. I see one clumsy challenge coming with will award a penalty to either of the teams...

The Moroccans will not survive a PK shootout with these young Spaniards, the only African team capable of PK is Egypt, sadly they are not here. BTW, I'm rooting for Morocco, who are already making me proud.

Ronaldo is not start...!!(?)

I'm one point above but with a disadvantage that my questions partner ( maybe) hits at least two... out of 3.

He's not at the age where he can start a game, so coming in late in the game when the players are already tired will be the best option for him. His formal coaches were freight at this point.

Edit: MOROCCO!!!!! WHAT AN ORGASM !!!

had good chances, but Spain attack is without Morata, and now I need Morocco to pass through or I am set for another decider, where I need Portugal ans Swiss to be silent for 42 minutes

looking at how many goals is scored so far, no goalless halftime in this R16, will be a hard time

Should Spain get knocked out, I'll also advance as well but I don't want them to get eliminated just yet, however I don't think karma gives two f**ks about what we want over what's deserved.

Except I get extremely unlucky which can be the case sometimes, I believe I will make it through to the next round, all I need is just one goal from either of the remaining two fixtures, but a goalless halftime from Spain and Morocco is not having me full of optimism.

I always believe that you have to take responsibility and provoke lady luck to reward you. This Spain side has done nothing in first half and Morocco plays just the game like they would have chosen themselves. If it continues like this I am expecting Morocco to make that surprise and score a late winner or progress trough the penalties.

There must be one more goal in this or next match for sure, would be super unlucky if it isn't. I am hoping for at least 2 in this Spain game since I have money on both to score. One goal from Morocco in first 5 min of second half would be perfect

Spain - Marocco could end with a draw if 2nd half won't bring something new which I kinda doubt at this point because both teams have almost the same style and a goal could come only by a mistake for either Spain or Marocco.

For Spain , I was expecting a lot more in 1st half as that is where they showed the strongest pace in this World Cup and yet again , they barely had any chances to even shot towards the goalie. If somehow , we are going to penalties , we might witness the first big surprise in elimination games Shocked

Well... I just checked the spreadsheet and it looks like I'm out. I have only one correct answer and @inthelongrun have three. When I check the questions for upcoming matches, both of us gave the same answer for all but one question. Even if that one question goes to my side, I'm still unable to beat @inthelongrun. Congratulations on advancing to the quarters man! I'm still happy because I got $25 as a reward

Thank you mate. And I am sorry for knocking you out of this tournament. I cannot believe I just beat you. The truth is I'd been watching you and Dittoup since you guys were rocking in round 1. Every time I watched the spreadsheets, besides tracking my groupmates I always checked both of you until Dittoup had problems in round 3. I sacrificed half of my party time last weekend telling my friends I needed time because I entered a WC tournament and that I am head-to-head against the person I am tracking. Cheesy

Luck is on my side as I managed to qualify and now I barely escaped with a single point.

Consider me the Japan in this tournament. There's a reason why I picked only 5 European teams to proceed in this round, I thought Japan is the one to deliver another upset which they nearly did but failed. So I will be facing Slaman29 in the round of 8, another difficult challenge for me.

Only Morocco knocking Spain out will save me, but even then I need Ronaldo to score AND my Spain lineup to be correct, I have faith still, but I might have run out of luck. Definitely joining you guys to banter anyway, maybe we should take sidebets on the QFlists heh.

I see you got the Spain line-up correct, but if your only hope is on Ronaldo, you're officially out unless the old man steals another of his teammate's goals, and I'm sure he'll struggle against those young blooded defenders.

And sadly, after making so much hype about myself going into the competition, I was knocked out, and for the first time, this lucky bastard buywatress got his way, and Harkorede as uasul kept getting lucky, but wait for me nigga, I promise you I'll beat your ass in the UCL prediction pool. Grin

BTW, congrats guys, you did an amazing job, especially with the MD3 questions.

At least today is not the day Cheesy

I was already scared I'd potentially be facing Buwaytress, at least that's if I make past this stage with another tough guy LTU_btc from almost every pool I've participated in so far, we've got 6 question left and we have to answer in common, I just need two more of the four questions we shared different perspectives about to go my way then, then I'll be through to the next stage, the most likely being the Croatians to dominate Japan, and the round of 16 having more than 22 goals.

After Saka and Harry Kane had scored, I was sure Foden would also get an attempt at goal if he was left on the pitch for the entire game, but Gareth Southgate did me a favour of taken him out before he gets that opportunity.

I left this topic as soon as I got knocked out like the Germans, great expectations, little result Grin

but I'm back now for banter. I see you're already ahead of the lucky bastard, which doesn't surprise me because I expected him to join me as a commentator shortly. doing exactly what he does best It's been a rough R18, but not for England and Brazil; these two are tearing weaker teams apart, and I can't wait for the quarterfinals. We had so many weaker teams advance to the R16 that I wasn't expecting tough matchups all around.

Croatia and Brazil women came prepared, and we don't want them to leave anytime soon; I've never missed a moment with their fans. wonderful lovely ladies Grin

who is this slissy guy; man how did you qualify to the R16? hahaha Grin

you are the South Korea of our time

@Trofo and @cryptofrka this was a really good competition. I hope you will organize something like this again. Don't wait for the Euro 2024 Wink

@Trofo I'm sending you my BTC address right away.

Glad you liked it guys, we will probably also make some sort of feedback form when competion ends to get info from all of you and to see what you liked best and what we could have maybe done differently.

We have some ideas already but we will see how we can incorporate them into Spotsbet marketing plan, hopefully there will be more competitions like this.

Great stats show, cryptofrka! I think it's fair to say a lot of us got caught by the goals question. There were plenty of goals in group games, but I expected very tough and tight games from the Last 16. Didn't expect Netherlands to score so many, even Brazil got 4 goals in first half from 5 shots in target, Richarlison by the way scored 3/4 from his shots on target, that's one guy I underestimated... and overestimated South Korea's ability (but it's Brazil so maybe shouldn't be so hard on them).

Anyway, Slissy, looks like I beat you already and I think it is very likely I meet inthelongrun... I'm very excited!

'Bitcoins are like gold bars with wings' - T.W.

I planned to offer some statistics for today's games but I got some kind of a flu and slept throughout most of the day.
Here are some for tomorrow, and from the recent Brazil game:

The only doubt for Europe is Spain, so it will either be 5 or all 6 Europeans to go through.
There has been a lot of goals so far as well - and we need 1 more goal tomorrow to push us to 22.

The first QF games are on Friday, so you can expect the questions for the next round probably Wednesday afternoon or Thursday morning.
The results of the R16 will be published tomorrow after the games.

Huh, Brazil is really showing today how easy football can be. I'm not looking forward to playing against them next Grin

They are a team that doesn't suit us at all, we are the weakest in the full-backs position where they will attack with the most quality and depth.

I'd prefer playing anybody else - we will have to perform a small miracle to qualify to the semis.

Only thing that is good for us against Brazil is that our players always give their best performances against strongest opponents, and it doesn't get any stronger than this Brazil side.

They were really impressive tonight and I was a bit surprised Tite started with 5 very attacking players. I guess he finally decided to go with popular opinion and let the beast run free. Korea did not know whom to defend in first half while Brazil was playing at their max.

Assuming that Spain doesn't get eliminated by Morocco, then the correct answer in question number 9 would be "all 6 European teams will advance to the quarter-finals". I hope Brazil will make total over today and I will advance to the next round ahead of schedule Cheesy

Judging by the goal of Vinicius in the 7th minute, there is every chance for this.

Well, you should never play on Croatia to win in regular time when knockout stages begin. We went to extra time in 8 out of 9 such matches. I don't think anybody else has that kind of stats. Only one that wasn't ET or penalties was our loss to France in the final last time around.

actually, I ended up not betting at all on Croatia, wasn't sure who will gonna pass
congrats on progress to quarter-final, did not watch the match, it is commuting home time, but from what I could see and hear, it was a tide match, where Croatia was just enough better to feel that pass through is deserved

did not know about that statistics, but can recall watching penalty series with Denmark from last championship

Yeah, the game was just like Croatia likes to play knockout games. A tie game with few chances on both sides but this one was (obviously) won thanks to our goalie Livakovic. In Russia we had Subasic who was saving us and now we have Livakovic. I really don't know if the guys will be able to recover for the game against Brazil/South Korea. Some of them couldn't walk, let alone run.
