World Cup quarterfinals match schedule

The World Cup has come down to the final eight teams, as quarterfinal matchups begin Friday, July 2, on ESPN. It’s unfortunate that Netherlands vs. Brazil has to take place in the quarterfinals — both of these teams are capable of winning it all, but one of them will be eliminated Friday. Same story with Argentina vs. Germany. Those matches should be awesome. Uruguay vs. Ghana — though neither is really an elite soccer powerhouse — should be a decent match, though the winner is shaping up to be a sacrificial lamb for the winner of Netherlands-Brazil. And we figure Spain should cruise past Paraguay, though personally I’m hoping for Paraguay to upset, simply because I have them in the office pool and I want to see more of Larissa Riquelme. Here is the match schedule for the quarterfinals:

Friday, July 2

Netherlands vs. Brazil, 10am ET, ESPN
Uruguay vs. Ghana, 2:30pm ET, ESPN

Saturday, July 3

Argentina vs. Germany, 10am ET, ABC
Paraguay vs. Spain, 2:30pm ET, ABC
