France or Argentina do not make it to semis. If either of them make it to semis, it is game over for Brazil. Mark my words. Argentina will beat Brazil on a good day for Argentina. Feance will beat them even if they have bad day.
True Brazil are playing well and are certainly one of the main contenders for the title win.But going by the topsy-turvy proceedings so far making an accurate call is difficult with gaps between teams narrowing.The ARG cliffhanger and the Messi lows and highs,German's uncharacteristic losses to mexico and Korea leading to premature ouster etc.... all make the event very exciting and unpredictable indeed.I am expecting even Japan to make it to the k.o stage the way they are playing.England too are expected to go quite a distance if not full. I think the Russia 2018 is going to be one of the most memorable event in WC history to be remembered for generations to come. Valdimir Putin seems to be a lucky man with Russia which was in a way looked isolated and in confrontation with west suddenly is getting all the attention of the entire world with football fans and tourists flocking to different venues.The matches too are turning out to be superlative thrillers with the entire world TV viewers glued to their sets.
