Really enjoyed the first half of Germany v Ecuador very balanced, fast moving game.

Ecuador win 2-1 best game I have watched.

Oh what a goal, what a move by Japan. Blessed, vibrant Japan. The press, the counter press, the interchanging of positions, the rapid transitions. Let’s go Japan ⚽️

So, that was an eventful night, but I'm glad to see my dark horse pick to go quite far have actually started to come good. Well done Ecuador.

Switzerland are through to the last-32. They'll play on 3 July, but their opponent has yet to be decided. Right now it's projected to be Algeria, which I would imagine Switzerland would handily beat…
