While the Socceroos won’t be playing in the World Cup finals, that doesn’t mean you can’t support another team in their race to victory – especially if you have one of the 8 remaining teams in the office sweeps.
The Round of 16 did not disappoint, with Morocco and Portugal, the last two nations to qualify for the Quarter Finals, joining France, England, Argentina, Netherlands, Croatia and Brazil.
In Perth, football fans can expect late nights and early mornings, but at least all the nail-biting action will take place over the weekend.
Who’s Playing?
The World Cup Quarterfinals will begin on Friday where favourites Brazil will face off against Croatia as they look to take home their 6th World Cup.
Moving onto Saturday where will see one of the two blockbuster finals, featuring the undefeated Netherlands v Argentina. Argentina will be fighting to bring Messi one step closer to receiving a World Cup title before he retires.
In Saturday’s Quarterfinal match, Portugal will face Morocco, who just defeated Spain to advance to the next round. As Morocco’s first time in the finals the world will be on pause as this unnerving game unfolds.
Be sure to set your alarm for 3 am on Sunday to watch the 2nd blockbuster game. Will England be bringing it home and knocking France from their podium or will France destroy the Britts?
