So far with some knock out games played at the World Cup, the favorites won. Do you see any underdogs such as Morocco winning Spain in this knock out phase?
Can we have an underdogs win in the KO?

Morocco already did it tonight! Africa are celebrating this win as no one expected it. I am happy for that team.
I was impressed with the match. Beating Spain isn't easy.
Their goalkeeper was the man of the match for me.
I believe that too. There was a clean good save he made from a freekick. It would have ended in goal.
A big game coming up for them against Portugal. Will their defense stand tall against the European team or will the wall fall? We shall find out this weekend.
If Portugal plays at their best, they will win.
As long as Bruno turns up, I see Portugal carrying the day.
Yeah, he's a very creative player.
I was happy with their performance against Spain. Spain left out Ramos their best Defender and they paid for it.
I knew they would pay dearly for it. Luis Enrique felt he could do without Ramos, he was a joke of coach.
It was a very big mistake on his part. It was a very bad decision.
I'm very sure he would regret it for the rest of his life. He's been replaced as Spain coach right?
Sergio Ramos has struggled with injuries since he joined PSG. Did you seem it wise taking him to the tournament?
He was fully fit for this World Cup. There was no point in dropping him.
Could it be as a result of leaving Real Madrid for PSG? Maybe they felt he wasn't good enough for the national team too.
I don't really know. All I can say is that Lius Enrique was daft to drop him.
If they had gone ahead to win the World Cup, no one would have been complaining about dropping Sergio Ramos.
Well, unfortunately they didn't win or even make much progress, so the talks are justified.
