Round of 16 set

South Korea draws Portugal, who have looked great. It would be a shame if they lost so early after playing so well in the group despite losing to England. The host country will be devastated is they lose, they really believe in their youth team.
England plays Costa Rica on Wednesday. They'll be favored.
US Faces off against New Zealand, they'll be missing 3 starters due to yellow card accumulation, most controversially Cameron Carter-Vickers on defense, who got a very questionable 2nd yellow in their 1-1 draw in the first half against Saudi Arabia. Still a winnable game.
Venezuela posted the best group results, scoring 10 and conceding zero(!!), kinda insane for a youth team. They play Japan, South Korea's rival, too, who the Koreans will desperately hope result goes to form as their rival losing before them will soften their loss to Portugal (if it happens).
If the favorites win, the QFs on should be really entertaining football. I've watched highlights of most teams, lots of exciting football! Hoping to get tickets to the final (whoever's in it) next weekend.
