Not the prettiest game after the first 5 minutes, but tense extra time and finish. No surprise Denmark was going to be tough to score on. They kept France in check in the only 0-0 game of this tournament.

Kind of relieved Croatia pulled through so that side of the bracket doesn't become any more of a cakewalk. Plus Denmark and Russia would both be playing not-to-lose against each other anyway.

Amazing goalie work at the end.

1-0 Brazil. Mexico missed a wide open Lozano on a scoring chance and Brazil made them pay for it on the other end. But the Mexicans have been competitive so far.

2-0 Brazil. Could have been worse for Mexico if not for Ochoa. Make that 7 straight round of 16 exits now.

Couple missed opportunities in the box. Gotta capitalize on those vs a team like Bell Jum.

GK got chipped on a header. Not sure if he meant it, but Belgium will take it.
