HighLights: Belgium Vs USA: 2-1

What a game, What a game, What a game. The extra time was an example of human limits to its extreme. With two overworked team giving it all. Tim Howard kept USA in with a chance by seeing the ball bigger than what it is. Ideally USA should have won with the amazing opportunity at the fag end of full time, but those are ifs and buts. They should have also stayed in the game in their superb last ditch efforts including a clever free kick. USA fought like a gladiator and unfortunately for them their was no theatrically happy ending.  Full marks to Belgium for tirelessly pressing on. In the end nature of sports calls for a winner and life seems too cruel, which seems to have become the norm of this world cup.

HighLights: Argentina Vs Switzerland: 1-0

A last minute mistake, Messi and Maria did what was denied by Switzerland for almost 2 halfs of regular and extra time. An amazing marking of Messi and a pole width was the distance between a loss and penalty shoot out for Switzerland. Phewww what a match

HighLights: France Vs Nigeria: 2-0

A not so intense game with Nigeria not playing so brave in-spite of their keepers bravery (or the mistake). A grave mistake every so called minnows are making is not taking the so called by horn. Sitting back doesn't help to an extent it can be said that they are themselves to blame.

HighLights: Germany Vs Algeria: 2-1

A good game with Algerians standing tall. The scoreline may suggest a goal fest but all happened in extra time with an edge of seat experience for both the fans. Great saves by the Algerian keeper.

HighLights: Costa Rica Vs Greece: 1-1: (5-3)

Didnt expect the match to go down to wire even with Greece historic and expected stout defending. At least a team scored all their penalties. Greece almost made it only to be denied by Keylor Nava. A chance missed by Greece to overwhelm 10 man opponent, a probable downside of being too defensive is to be unable to take advantage of the such opportunities.

HighLights: Netherlands Vs Mexico: 2-1

Fate is cruel and the Mexican might have realized it today with higher power somehow always supporting the diver (Robben) graduated from the best acting school of the world. I wonder why officials dont show him the yellow card.

HighLights: Columbia Vs Uruguay: 2-0

The dancing shoes of the world cup has done it again overwhelming a desperately out of sorts Uruguay in the absence of her every so hungry striker Suarez. A commendable job the Columbian goalkeeper and Rodriguez what a magical unbelievable strike.

HighLights: Brazil Vs Chile: 1-1(3-2)

Heartbreak of Chilean fans, denied by the woodwork. They so much deserved to win with a gallant display of pristine football on field. Brazil looks vulnerable. The very first match of RoundOf16 going to shootout, this world cup is definitely more exciting than the other
