On Tuesday we saw the last two games of the Round of 16 and Sweden and England were able to advance over Switzerland and Colombia, respectively. In short, Sweden was boring and defensive as usual, and England fans were nervous as hell the whole game, so you know there were plenty of great World Cup tweets.

Sweden vs. Switzerland
This game finished 1-0 with Sweden advancing via a deflected shot scoring the only goal. So, if you didn't watch the game don't worry because it was pretty boring and the only entertaining things about it were the World Cup tweets from fans.

Colombia vs. England
Now, this game was fucking tense. England fans are convinced that either they're going to lose at this stage or that they're winning the whole thing. A well-struck penalty from Harry Kane gave England the lead until Yerry Mina headed home the equalizer in the 93rd minute.
England fans are terrified of PKs because of their "curse," but damn it they broke that curse and advanced to the quarters.
"It's coming home!"
We’ve scraped past Tunisia in the last minute, beaten a pub team and got beat by the only decent team we’ve faced. Yet the country is convinced we can win The World Cup! And for some reason I’m starting to believe it could just happen too #ComeOnEngland
