Russia World Cup: Round of 16 to begin with Argentina and Portugal in action
- 6 years ago
Let's turn our attention now to the Russia World Cup, where after a day's break the action is back with the first two games in the knockout round of 16.
First up is France versus Argentina.
Both sides managed to progress from their groups, but without particularly impressing. We'll wait to see whether France's talented but young side can click better to overcome Lionel Messi's Argentina and book a ticket to the quarter-finals.
That match will kick-off tonight at 11PM Korea time.
The second match will be at 3AM Korea time Sunday, between Uruguay and Portugal. Cristiano Ronaldo will try to add to his tally of four goals in this tournament so far.
If Portugal and Argentina both win, that would line up a mouth-watering tie pitting two of the greatest players of all time, Ronaldo and Messi, against each other on the world's biggest stage.
We'll find out in a few hours.
