Spain and Australia first teams to go out. Not surprised by Spain. I called it. Tika-taka just does not work without Xavi or insane pressing. The current Spain and Barcelona don't have either. Good result for Chile, but think Brazil or Croatia will be too much for them.
Brazil would be, but Croatia?

Would not rule out Chile beating Holland. Holland were poor today and needed Robben to rescue them.

I would not rule out Chile beating Holland either, that's why I said Brazil or Croatia.

Croatia are a strange team, but they have an incredible midfield and Mandzukic is a decent enough striker. Srna is still a fantastic crosser of the ball and Chile really struggled when Australia were more direct and crossed the ball in. I think they will struggle to deal with Mandzukic.
