Brazil went 2-1-0 through Group C and needed a stoppage-time winner to edge Japan in the Round of 32, staying unbeaten behind Vinicius Junior’s attack. Norway finished 2-0-1 in Group I and advanced past the Ivory Coast on another goal from Erling Haaland, who’s tied for second with 5 goals for this year’s Golden Boot race.
Player to Watch
While Brazil has many ways it can beat opponents, Norway is far more limited. Fortunately for The Vikings, its main weapon, Haaland, is one of the best forwards of his generation. If he can find openings in Brazil’s defense, it might be enough to spark an upset. He is certainly going to be the most consequential player in this game.
Mexico vs. England
- Time: 8 p.m. ET
- TV: FOX
- Stream: Watch 3 days free on FOX One
- Venue: Mexico City Stadium, Mexico City, Mexico
Mexico has won all four of its matches without conceding a goal, and the host nation returns to Mexico City for the Round of 16 riding that momentum and a raucous, high-altitude crowd. England is also unbeaten, advancing behind Harry Kane’s five goals after a Round of 32 win over DR Congo.
Player to Watch
Along with Haaland, Kane is one of the best center forwards of his generation. Thus far in the tournament, Kane has been very effective in bailing England out of otherwise subpar performances. In this game, Kane will face the tournament’s best defensive team that will be highly focused on stopping him.
But even if Kane can be stopped from scoring, he can also be very valuable drifting back into midfield and helping create plays. If Kane struggles in this game, it could be a very long day for the Three Lions. On the other hand, if Kane can find the back of the net early, it will make life easier for England to deal with the crowd and the altitude the rest of the way.
