It's the knockout stage! There are 16 matches left in this World Cup and today we have two of them.

The first game is Louis Van Gaal's Lung Cancer Cells against the You Ess Em En Tee. Will Gakpo continue to make commentators say his name out loud? Will Pulisic murder his balls once again? Will the Americans finally go away? Time will tell starting one hour from now.

The second game is Lionel Messi's Team of Tax Avoiders against the Subway Eat Fresh Socceroos. Will the spirit of Tim Cahill inspire the Aussies to a dire 0-0 draw and send Messi home on penalties? Will the man with the most Argentine name in the world, Alexis Mac Allister, score more goals? Time will tell starting five hours from now.

Let me fall out the window
With confetti in my hair
Deal out jacks or better
On a blanket by the stairs
I'll tell you all my secrets
But I lie about my past
I believe the Netherlands are suddenly going to be actually good now that the knock outs are starting. 3-1.

hopefully the days of training will pay off for the US lads and theyll remember that its not the kind of football where you touch the ball with your hands

Nature Abhors A Vacuum


USA Netherlands
Referee: Wilton SAMPAIO (BRA)
AR1: Bruno Boschilia (BRA)
AR2: Bruno Pires (BRA)
Fourth Official: Andrés Matonte (URU)
VAR: Nicolas Gallo (COL)

Cool, we get the #2 Brazilian guy. I think this is a pretty clear signal both Brazilians will work knockout matches, which then really starts to make the numbers a little funny for others. I hope this goes well. Gallo in the VAR seat has only had one intervention I believe so far. They are using real referees as 4th officials now, so I'm curious to see if Matonte is done or if this is prep for a future game. Sampaio's two group stage games were Senegal Netherlands and Poland Saudi Arabia.

Argentina Australia
Referee: Szymon MARCINIAK (POL)
AR1: Pawel Sokolnicki (POL)
AR2: Tomasz Listkiewicz (POL)
Fourth Official: Mario Escobar (GUA)
VAR: Tomasz Kwiatkowski (POL)

Typically, you have to work two group stage games to get a knockout. When Marciniak only did one and it was without major controversy, I was really wondering what in the world was happening. Looks like they're breaking that here, which is probably a good thing. His lone game to date was France Denmark and he was fine in it. Kwiatkowski hasn't done much VARing this tournament so far, no interventions and I think only two matches in total.
