On this episode of the OneFootball Podcast, Dan Burke is joined by Matt Frohlich.

The World Cup round of 16 is complete and there are some big performances, big upsets and big stories to mull over.

Will Lionel Messi be able to lead Argentina past a formidable Dutch team in the quarter-finals, or will La Albiceleste's defensive vulnerability come back to bite them?

Is Gareth Southgate owed some apologies for England's performances at the tournament, and can they overcome a France team with Kylian Mbappé in such inspired form in the quarter-finals?

Can anyone stop this incredibly strong Brazil team from winning the World Cup? 

Are penalties just a lottery no matter how much preparation you do? 

And have Portugal definitively proved they're better off without Cristiano Ronaldo?

All of those questions - and many more - are answered here.
