R16: Belgium - USA (July 1, 2014 - 22:00 CET)
#17
Great game again! This knockout round has had it's fair share of 0-0s, but it's amazing how balanced the games are. USA did credit, they far exceeded expectations and were unlucky to lose. It's not a great side, but their work ethic and team unity is admirable.

Belgium on the other hand have superb talent, but I still hold on to the thought that this group of players aren't a team, they're just very talented individuals. Wilmots' decisions made me want to pull my hair out too, I don't understand why he left Lukaku (who was a nightmare for the US defence) on the bench till so late and after the team went 2-0 up, I was amazed that Belgium did nothing to see out the result. All they had to do was reorganise and just protect the advantage for the last 10 minutes, but instead went stupid and were all at sea. I like Belgium and think they can beat Argentina, but their success is purely based on individual quality.
