The two sides in Serbia and Switzerland have had a go at each other’s goal several times and have in fact produced the most scoring first half in the tournament so far with four goals coming in it. The scoring was started by Xherdan Shaqiri in the 20th minute for the Swiss.
Later on, Serbia scored back-to-back goals through Mitrovic and Dusan Vlahovic to take the lead. Breel Embolo came to rescue the Swiss and scored just before halftime to make it 2-2. The second half promises to be even more exciting.
In the second game, going on simultaneously to exciting Serbia vs Switzerland, the audience haven’t seen even one goal as Cameroon managed to hold Brazil tight. The first half is tied at 0-0 even after Brazil has a lion’s share of possession.

Serbia, however, must win to go through to the next round. But this situation also has ifs and buts because if Cameroon win in the other game by a margin greater than that of Serbia’s win against Switzerland, the Serbs might not be able to make it, even after winning. And this phenomenon is very recent in this World Cup. Stadium 974 will host this game.
The second match has things simple for Brazil. They should win and get through to the Round of 16 as the group winners and the only team in the entire World Cup to not drop a point at the group stage.
For Cameroon, they must not only win but win by a margin of at least two goals to make sure that they are not ending up as winners yet the eliminated team because even a draw for Switzerland would have them ahead of Cameroon if the African team doesn’t win by a margin of two goals. But winning is the priority. This match takes place at the Lusail Stadium.
