All the teams in the final round had to do the work to get here. However, it is looking like a lopsided bracket in the knockout round with many pre-tournament title favorites on one side. 

All the scores from the preliminary round. Lots of surprises and lots of close calls.
This was a tournament of upsets and slow starts for some of the ‘big guns’

Here are the teams ended their World Cup after 3 matches.

At the end of the preliminary round, this is how the 2018 FIFA World Cup groups stood.  Germany and Poland being the biggest of the disappointment. 

The journey to the finale.
