Very exciting stuff from Ecuador and from the Guatemala-Croatia match.

And Ecuador finally produced a good result to ensure their place in the Round of 16. Congrats to both teams.

Group C
Ecuador 3-0 Costa Rica
Australia 1-5 Spain

Somehow I don't know what to think about the tournament.... most matches are not going 'my way' maybe that's the reason.

For me there are playing to many shit teams. I guess I'm not a good football watcher.

I guess England will lose... for me it would be a BIG surprise if not.

Let's hope Colombia will play a good match vs the Ticos.

I think it will be the last Ecuador match :(
