The most surprising for me would be Germany going out during the group stage. I really never saw that coming, no one did. To say the defending champions will be eliminated in such a manner, looking that they were even unbeaten during the qualifiers. So painful but, that's football.

And very surprising Croatia could top that group.

In addition, Uruguay are are the only team not to concede a single goal during the group stage of the World Cup since Argentina in 1998
