What more have we not witnessed in this world cup. The high tempo, smile, tears, frustration, anger and laughter, all have been tested.

My favourite team crashed out (Brazil) But life and fun goes on. This world cup is really a game changer and there is nothing like the big team all dominating. If you surely want to reign high, you have to produce your best form.

Judging by preparation alone, i know a lot who said the bigger countries will win but just take a look at it, the changes is everywhere.

Yesterday, two games were played, one involved England vs Sweden while the other was between the host and Croatia. It has been long i saw England team going far like this. They always have a better team but at the end, they will crashed out. This year has proven a big different as they are now in the semi's, just another step further will land them in the final.

England vs Sweden game was a runner off when been compared to the other one that took place between Russia and Croatia. England were able to displaced Sweden after Goals from Harry and Delli Ali gave England a well deserved 3 point which took them into the semi. England will be playing against Croatia as France will be playing Belgium.

Russia vs Croatia on the contrary ended so bad for the Russian side after they lost at penalty. It was the Russia side that went ahead after Denis .C. get that rocket into the back of the net. I was expecting the Russia supporters to threw in all they got so that they can get the Croatia's side distracted but it seems they failed there as Croatia bounce back in the 39th minute following a good header from Andrej .K. The game is now balanced but it was now Croatia doing the pressing. Croatia went ahead following a header from Vida in the 101 minute and at a time, i thought they have won it, not in the 115 minute that Mario.F. got an equaliser and that goal took them into penalty.

All drama ends in the penalty after Rakitic was able to convert his penalty. That took his country into the semis as they will be playing England.

this world cup is truly for the best team not the big team.

France vs Belgium, England vs Croatia, who will advance further?
