What a day that was. There were upsets, an elimination and a mouth-watering clash between Germany and Spain.
Hereâs the best of what happened on day eight and what we have to look forward to on day nine.
Where to start?
Costa Rica blew Group E wide open with an unexpected win over Japan while Spain v Germany was a footballing masterclass.
But Moroccoâs shock and deserved 2-0 victory over Belgium was the story of the day, leaving Roberto MartĂnezâs side in a ton of trouble.
All eyes were on Dani Olmoâs goal-bound effort which was tipped on to the bar by Germany goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.
Costa Rica didnât do much against Japan, but what they did do âŠ
There was something âa bit DIYâ about Canadaâs attempts to stop Atiba Hutchinsonâs nose from bleeding in the 4-1 defeat to Croatia.
Thereâs a tasty clash in Group H with Portugal looking to book their place in the last-16 when they take on Uruguay while Brazil take to the pitch again with a banana skin to overcome in Switzerland.
Uruguay flattered to deceive in the first game â stumbling to a 0-0 draw with South Korea.
If they are to get their World Cup campaign up and running then Liverpoolâs Darwin NĂčñez might have something to do with it.
The 23-year-old has eight goals and two assists so far this season.
