World Cup 2022: Round of 16 draw, dates and results

Only two positions remain in the World Cup quarterfinals after the booking of places by the Netherlands, Argentina, France, England, Croatia, and Brazil.

The round concludes this evening when Cristiano Ronaldo will try to motivate Portugal to victory over Switzerland. Group G winners Morocco will face off against Spain today.

The knockout phase got under way with Netherlands cruising to a 3-1 victory over the United States.

Louis van Gaal’s men will face Argentina in the last eight after Lionel Messi inspired the South Americans to a 2-1 win over Australia.

Olivier Giroud became France’s all-time top scorer as they overcame Poland 3-1, while England saw off Senegal 3-0 following some hairy moments in the first half to set up a clash with Les Bleus.

Croatia booked their place in the last eight with a penalty shootout win over Japan.

Their reward is a quarter-final showdown with Brazil, who looked majestic as they swept South Korea aside 4-1.
