The @blocktrades World Cup | My selections for the Quarter finals
This world cup has been undoubtedly one of the most surprising editions in a very long time. Unexpected results have became an everyday occurrence.
So much so that you wonder if the bookies are crying or laughing.
Football is a sport where everything can happen, and it’s not surprising to see smaller teams exceeding expectations. For example, Sweden and Bulgaria in 1994, Croatia in 1998, Turkey in 2002… Etc.
But nothing at the scale we’re seeing right now. Which makes picking the results of the next round all the more difficult.
You’re stuck between adapting to this new momentum where the underdogs are constantly (and consistently) knocking out the favorites, or if the trend would reverse in the next round.
But the best thing is that it doesn’t matter. This is just a game and no one holds the crystal ball, so why not have some fun and take some wild guesses.
Without further ado, here are my picks for the The @blocktrades World Cup Quarter Finals:
| Score | Team | vs | Team | Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Uruguay | vs | France | 2 |
| 2 | Brazil | vs | Belgium | 2 |
| 1 | Sweden | vs | England | 2 |
| 0 | Russia | vs | Croatia | 1 |

Hello friend, excellent publication, I liked it a lot. Count on me, I invite you to visit my profile and count on you too, Regards
Thanks! Good luck to you :)
hope your prediction perfect.
Hope yours is as well! :)
You may be wrong about the Croatia Vs Russia match as I see the Russians are so determined to host and win. Well lets wait and see on Saturday.
Yeah I see them very determined. This world cup has been so surprising I no longer know who would win haha
France will be the winner of this world cup
It's probable for sure. If France wins, who do you think would be the favorite for the Ballon D'or? Griezmann or Mbappé?
Well lets hope for the best and lets get entertained by the last few matches ;)
While all the very best for the contest as well ;)
Thank you @rehan12! I hope the same, that we have a very entertaining last few games :)
Brazil vs Belgium match seems kind of very interesting everyone think this is gonna be a draw :D interesting
Yeah it's such a fascinating game! I almost wrote 4-5 as a prediction but I realized it's too many goals :P
