Wow.  What a day.  Both games tied in regulation, OT, and decided on penalty kicks.  Man.

Some people don't like the PKs but my Lord was watching them entertaining.  First the Russia crowd was thunderous, and then the goalies were ridiculous in Sweden-Croatia

Yeah, that's why I never doubt the host country magic.  Aside from Brazil's total collapse against Germany four years ago, it seems like the host always outperforms expectations.

Members of a youth soccer team and their coach have been found alive following nine days spent trapped in a cave in Thailand, per CNN's Kocha Olarn and Lauren Said-Moorhouse.
All 12 players of the team known as Wild Boar, as well as their coach, were located in the Tham Luang Nang Non cave system on Monday.

Welp, I thought Belgium looked the best going into the knockout round, but looks like the concerns about just how bad the bottom half of their group was, combined with finishing with a meaningless game against England were valid.

That was one of the best soccer games I've seen.  While Belgium was the big favorite, Japan looked great and nearly got a winner. The teams went up and down all game, and we got a legendary ending

England and Colombia has been great as the teams are going up and down and they also seem to hate each other

Wow, Columbia with the extra time equalizer, then seemingly had it won in PKs then dinged one of the crossbar, and had one stopped to seize defeat from the jaws of victory.

I'm really hoping for Belgium-France and Croatia-England in the semis.  That would be a fantastic set of matches.
