Tie two for the “Round of 16”. Should be plain sailing for Sippo (Italy) but WTRRA (Austria) has been strong in their group. With two wins and I'm sure many weren't expecting them to finish ahead of Ukraine (that's me  ). Arnautovic seems their main threat but Italy have been transformed under Mancini. Anthems sung. Kick Off in 5mins... |

Well that was a tie and a half. WTRRA (Austria) pushed Sippo (Italy) all the way.
Full Time in nodnoL...

Tie four is just 30mins away. Off Grid Gary (Belgium) takes on Fowey (Portugal), in what should be a cracking encounter. Expect random winking, moths, and maybe Jota smashing one off the bar!

Hahaha! Off Grid Gary is my mate, who apart from contact via mobile is quite hard to get hold of (in the modern era). If you look at the tournament tree you can see all the "names" given. And a couple of pages back on here also explains who is who too  So yes, some cryptic crossword ones but they all relate to the nation they have drawn  |

And that finalises the first two Q-F Ties with Off Grid Gary (Belgium) through thanks to a Thorgan thronker!
Fowey (Portugal) could not quite break that Belgian back five! A very fruity affair indeed. No moth though!

I was looking forward to saying something like "...and it'll be Wobbling Robert (England) versus Gareth of Orange (Holland) in the semi-finals..." Mind you, England have their own task to do yet! |

It's Day 3 of the "Round of 16" and tie five is just moments away.
Can Batch (Croatia) overcome Crackity Jones (Spain). I feel this one could go to penalties...

Those pesky Spaniards can be pretty painful at times!  |

Well that was likely the best Round of 16 match so far, if you aren't in any way connected.
Crackity (Spain) eventually goes through but were pushed well beyond by Batch (Croatia). Some suspect game management by the Spaniards and credit to a so called "past it" Croatian team.
Spain are through, coming up we find out who they'll face on Friday...

Quick turnaround on this one, thanks to extra time in the previous.
We have Flash 'art (France), the tournament favourites taking on the emmentalists, Nemo (Switzerland).
Should be plain sailing for Les Bleus but if Shaqiri has his tiny little short man shooting boots on...could there be a shock on the cards?
