It started with 32 teams but now down to 4 teams,60 matches played already with 4 decisive fixtures left.
The FIFA World cup have been in Europe since 2006 and won't leave the continent until probably 2022 as all Semi-Finalists are European teams.
The English national team will be hoping to replicate the 1966 heroic triumph when they face the Croats led by Luka Modric while 1998 World Champions France will slug it out with Belgium.
Ranking for the Quarter Finalists, Russia surpasses all expectations but were not second time lucky from the lottery of 12yards and are therefore ranked 8th.
The Swedish national team had a campaign to remember topping a group that had defending champions Germany,Mexico and South Korea but stats could only place them on the 7th spot.
Five times champions Brazil will play Samba another time as the team that has Neymar,Coutinho,Marcelo and many more takes the number 6 position.
On number 5 is Uruguay with a massive 100 percent record up to the round of 16.
Luiz Suarez will be proud of his disciplinary record compared to the 2010 and 2014 editions and that put them in contention for the Fair Play Award alongside Iceland and Japan for special reasons.
