GROUP G
Brazil and Portugal will play their first final, that of their group, to determine who will finish at the top and thus have the privilege of facing the runner-up of Group H. It will be a match for honor between North Korea and Ivory Coast because, even if Portugal loses, the Ivorians would need to score an avalanche of goals to make up for the Portuguese goal difference, which surged after Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates’ 7-0 thrashing of the North Koreans. The spotlight will be on Durban where the Europeans known as the Brazilians, as the Portuguese are nicknamed, will face Carlos Dunga’s men who are determined to return home as world champions with the trophy in their luggage.

GROUP H
Chile is in a more than favorable position after its two victories against Honduras and Switzerland, certainly with a minimal score of 1-0. But at the end, it’s indeed 6 points that Marcelo Bielsa’s protégés have before facing Spain, who must absolutely win or risk losing the second spot to Switzerland, which is set to challenge Honduras. Certainly, the Spaniards hold a better goal difference (+1 for Spain against -1 for Switzerland), but the task for the Swiss seems less complicated than for the Iberians. Defeat is therefore forbidden for these two teams, and they must focus on attacking, trying to score as much as possible so as not to have any regrets at the final whistle. In case of a perfect tie between the Spaniards and the Swiss, it’s the result of the direct confrontation between these two countries that will prevail, and this time, Switzerland has the advantage with its victory (1-0) against Spain in the opening match of this group. Excitement is expected for this last day of Group H.
