13:00 CET - Good afternoon and welcome to the final day of the round of 32! The first match of the day sees Australia take on Egypt in a hard-to-predict clash. Will this be Mohamed Salah's final World Cup match or will Egypt get the better of an exciting Aussie side?

That is followed by Argentina against Cape Verde in what is being dubbed as the Lionel Messi vs Vozinha match. The Cape Verde keeper has been one of the stories of the World Cup so far after keeping clean sheets in two out of three of the group games and Messi has once again delivered on the world stage after his heroics inspired Argentina to the World Cup title in 2022.

The day is wrapped up with a fascinating clash between Colombia and Ghana. Colombia went toe-to-toe with Portugal in the group stages and looked like an elite side, whilst Ghana managed to frustrate England after finding a way past Panama.
