The Round of 16 brought some interesting results. All of the games were absolutely insane and were fun to watch. The Penalty Shootout between Switzerland and France, Italy v. Austria, Sweden v. Ukraine, and Croatia v. Spain. The Healdsburg Table™ Match of the Week was Switzerland v. France where Kylian Mbappe missed a penalty shot that would have sent the penalties into Sudden Death, but it caused the defending World Champions to lose in the Round of 16 to the Swiss. The Quarterfinals are bringing interesting matchups to us on ESPN and ABC. The Healdsburg Table™ Upcoming Match of the Week is Italy v. Belgium. Here are my Predictions:
