🏆 Round of 32 bracket: projections and who has the easier side? 🌍The group stage has come to an end overnight in Italy with yet another Messi masterpiece and Portugal’s draw (CR7 once again anonymous): now the paths to the final are set. Let’s take a look at the bracket and the teams that will have more or less easy opponents, at least on paper.
🏆 The bracketOn the left side of the bracket, the following matches will be played:Germany-Paraguay (June 29, 10:30 PM)France-Sweden (June 30, 11:00 PM)South Africa-Canada (June 28, 9:00 PM)Netherlands-Morocco (June 30, 3:00 AM)Portugal-Croatia (July 3, 1:00 AM)Spain-Austria (July 2, 9:00 PM)USA-Bosnia (July 2, 2:00 AM)Belgium-Senegal (July 1, 10:00 PM)On the right side, meanwhile, there are “only” 3 heavyweights: Argentina, England and Brazil:Brazil-Japan (June 29, 7:00 PM)Ivory Coast-Norway (June 30, 7:00 PM)Mexico-Ecuador (July 1, 3:00 AM)England-DR Congo (July 1, 6:00 PM)Argentina-Cape Verde (July 4, 12:00 AM)Australia-Egypt (July 3, 8:00 PM)Switzerland-Algeria (July 3, 5:00 AM)Colombia-Ghana (July 4, 3:30 AM)🎇 An “easy” side of the bracket, BIG matches on the otherRIGHT SIDEThe teams that will have a “softer” path to reach the final are definitely those on the right side of the bracket, where Argentina, England and Brazil are placed. The first big match on this side could be Brazil-England in the quarter-finals. Argentina, meanwhile, could have a simpler road up to the quarter-finals, where they may face Colombia or Switzerland.
To see the first “clash of titans,” we may have to wait until the semi-finals, possibly against Brazil or England.LEFT SIDEThe other side of the bracket will give us some huge matchups right away: Portugal-Croatia in the round of 32 is already an incredible tie, made even more intriguing by the fact that Spain will (probably) be waiting for one of the two in the round of 16.
