I believe that’s not possible anymore. Round of 32 is July 1, Round of 16 July 6

Defensively Sweden is very weak. Attack on the other hand is strong. Potters big dilemma here is that he can't play Sweden defensively, even against the big teams. He did so today in the first 20 min and killed the match.

Yep. Sweden have some world class strikers in Isak and Gyokeres. Ronald Koeman did his homework and nullified them. As a legendary ex-defender himself, not surprised he had a plan.

Interesting group now. I can see Japan beating Tunisia easily. So goal difference will now keep Holland above Japan (if both on 4 pts) because they drew their head to head. These extra goals for Holland may be valuable yet.

Sweden still actually have a great chance to qualify.

Japan and Tunisia will be a late game even for here in the US. With the time difference, it will be 0600 Sunday morning in Europe and 0900 in Pakistan.

I went for an errand and was shocked to come back and see the score as 5-1!! Yeah Netherlands are definitely contenders for the trophy this time.

The Dutch will choke too. It has happened on many occasions.

I think it will be between Portugal, Germany, Spain and Argentina. Morocco is the dark horse for me.

Yeah that a decent 3rd place can result in qualification this time means that Sweden still stand a good chance of going further but I think it is clear that once they are up against world class opposition the Swedish defence will crumble.

Yea
It’s rough
But gotta watch them all

There are political infighting within the team as well.
Most of the players deliberately played badly

When politics gets involved, this is how they disgrace Türkiye in front of the whole world

not going to lie this should not go unpunished

Dutch have depth now. Proper squad depth.

Memphis Depay (still your all time top scorer) was on the bench today til the 72nd minute! Brobbey and Gakpo are enough and then to be able to bring Depay and Somerville on is scary for any opposition.

Not convinced. I have seen such performances before. The Dutch have a habit of winning early on and throwing it away towards the end. The real test will be against the bigger teams with defensive qualities. With all due respect, but Sweden doesn't have a good defence.

Check out the ticket prices for the US Round of 32 game in San Francisco

People will gladly pay it all while complaining about it.

Iran, while not even being as gifted as the Turkish team, played with a lot of heart against New Zealand. That is why I can give them a chance to get a favorable result against Egypt or maybe even Belgium (they haven’t hit full gear).

Turkey despite having many technical players, played with no heart, scored 0 goals in 2 matches, despite having a 1 man advantage over Paraguay over 50 minutes.

Egypt historically had a 6 matches against Belgium ( we won 4 , lost 1 and 1 draw).

Belgium isn't that good
