Could be an interesting day.

England - Iran

Most people who have heard of soccer in the USA associate it with England. As far as talent, England wins this by miles. However, top English players have not always translated to top English performances.

Senegal - Netherlands

For pure football watchers, this would have been the marquee game of the day. However, the African champions have lost Mane (Bayern Muchen) for the tournament, and he carried the team. Netherlands is stacked with talent and has what could be the best defensive back line in the tournament.

USA - Wales

The USA has no one that impresses me at the international level. The few who are fairly good have not been getting playing time for their clubs, so their match fitness comes into question. Wales has Bale, Aaron Ramsey, and a decent defense with a top goal keeper.
