Argentina exit from the tournament followed by Portugal and Spain has made FIFA World Cup 2018 come alive. With Messi, Ronaldo and Iniesta already out of the 2018 football world cup, all eyes are now on Neymar who would be playing tonight in the Round of 16 Match against Mexico.
Brazil's journey to the Round of 16 has been anything but smooth: After drawing 1-1 with Switzerland in their opener and leaving it late to claim a 2-0 win over Costa Rica, they beat Serbia 2-0 to ultimately move on as expected group winners. Mexico will try to move to the quarter finals after defeating the most difficult team possible. The team will also have the motivation of bouncing back from their disappointing performance in the last group match against Sweden, and will have to do so without suspended central defender Hector Moreno, one of its most important players.
