World Cup Predictions For Uruguay-France and Brazil-Belgium

The World Cup quarterfinals are here. What's likely to be a Cavani-less Uruguay, the Charrúa will have to stifle a potent France attack. Meanwhile, Belgium will look to get off to a better start versus Brazil than what they did against Japan.

The Envy-Inducing Numbers Behind The Brazil Players Salaries

Brazilian soccer players are like American basketball players — no matter where in the world there’s a professional soccer team, there’s likely to be a Brazilian playing for it. Brazil players salaries range from the lowest leagues to the highest-paid players in the world.

The best of the thousands of professional Brazilian soccer players make up the Seleção, and the 23 players chosen to represent Brazil’s World Cup team. All are well compensated by their professional clubs, but not all Brazil players salaries are created equally on the 2018 squad. 

Why This England Side Is The One To Bring It Home

John Wick 3 Cast Includes Messi, Ronaldo and Jorgensen As Villains

When Denmark and Croatia fell into a penalty shootout after a 1-1 deadlock, Denmark’s Nicolai Jorgensen failed to deliver. With that failure, the 27-year-old doomed himself to the role of a lifetime: the third villain in the next John Wick flick.

Jorgenson also received an alarming amount of online abuse — the Danish Football Association (DFA) even reported death threats!

On Tuesday, the Danish FA tweeted this:

The18's Best XI From The World Cup Round Of 16

England finished off the Round of 16 Tuesday with a win over Colombia on penalties. It led me to think that we may be living in a parallel universe if England won a knockout game via a shootout, but no one is complaining — expect for Radamel Falcao and Jose Pekerman. 

This has been one of the hardest lineups to make, simply because there were plenty of outstanding performances. 

Without further ado, here's the best XI from the Round of 16. As always, a simple 4-4-2 formation is the go for us.
