Colombia will be a fucking tough game, though.
It will Subs but they are no world beaters either. Lost to Japan and just beat Senegal.
Japan would of been a gimme in the last 16 for sure.
Very tough but not unbeatable.
True, but they were a man down after about 5 minutes against Japan so I wouldn't read too much into that. They absolutely smoked Poland.
But James limping off is a big loss for them - be amazed if he plays on Tuesday.
I still think England will be slight favourites, and if we win, then I would definitely back us to beat either Sweden or Switzerland, then who knows?
Belgium will stroll through their game against Japan, but then it's highly likely to be Brazil in the QFs, and while Brazil haven't been amazing so far, they've looked pretty tasty.
