OlanTekkers and Nick Stav look ahead to the round of 16 with Australia, Egypt, Argentina and Cabo Verde still to play. Will the Socceroos make history and beat Egypt? Will Mo Salah play? If he does, who's going to stop him? Who starts for the Socceroos and who plays where?

Plus, our Aussie stars like Bos, Irunkunda and Herrington are attracting serious interest from top clubs like Barcelona and Premier League-bound Hull City. Who's going to make the quarter-finals of the World Cup? We go in deep on the tactics, players and matchups that are going to decide.

And it was one of the games of the World Cup: Ronaldo v Modric AKA Portugal v Croatia. Literally a hair's breadth was all that separated Croatia and Portugal. Ronaldo had a goal disallowed, then Croatia had one chalked off with the last kick of the game. Insane scenes and Portugal advance while Croatia go home.
