On the one hand, a rather disappointing duel between a revamped team from Brazil and a brave team from Cameroon. On the other, a spectacular match for 55 minutes and more choppy in its last part. Dominated by Brazil, the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon did not give up, they gritted their teeth to resist the Brazilian attacks and they waited their time to strike. It was in stoppage time that the inevitable Vincent Aboubakar appeared in the rectangle to crucify the Seleçao and offer a beautiful exit to Cameroon.
The other meeting had been played for a while, but it was breathtaking for almost an hour. A Swiss goal, two Serbian goals and then two other Swiss goals: the teammates of Mitrovic, scorer for the second time in this World Cup, and those of Shaqiri, scorer against Serbia like four years ago, went blow for blow for 48 minutes. But the very nice third goal of the Nati definitively put an end to the hopes of the Serbs who suffered the blow. Serbia will have put on a show during this tournament (5 goals scored), but they will also have conceded too much to hope to reach the round of 16 (8 goals in three games). Logical qualification, therefore, of a more solid and more experienced Switzerland.
