So, the first big name casualty goes home. I already said Belgium is my favourite top team to exit at the group stage. Argentina escaped yesterday; Germany should also make it out of the group by defeating Costa Rica later today. And, this tournament is going unbelievably well for Africans. After the first game week the five African teams had two draws and three losses, scoring just one goal. Two of them, Senegal and Morocco have qualified. Cameroon has to defeat Brazil to go through while Ghana will hope to banish the demons of 2010 by going through at the expense of Uruguay. This is already a better tournament for Africans than Russia 2018 where no representative made it out of the group stage.
