Brazil, who will from today be known as the team who don't know how to lose, not so comfortably brushed aside a Ghana in the early game today three nil.

Brazil will play France who beat one of my early tournament favourites, Spain three one, on Saturday

Brazil were always going to win and I don't see them having a problem with France in the next round but France made hard work of Spain and scored two goals in the last seven minutes.

On Friday Germany take on Argentina and Italy play Ukraine while on Saturday England will play Portugal as well as France versus Brazil.

All of these matches are vital; let the fun begin.
