Start in the "16" with Netherlands-USA, Argentina-Australia! 13th Matchday in Cyprus Championship

The action in the World Cup continues unabated, but we also have action in the Cyprus Championship which is one of the few that continues normally without being interrupted by the World Cup.

Specifically for the World Cup, the round of "16" begins today with knockout games. The start is made with the Netherlands-USA game with Luis Van Gaal's players being the favorites but they will have to prove this on the pitch as well. Argentina would later take on Australia. The undisputed favorite is the company of Lionel Messi who, if he continues from where he left off in the Groups, will easily or hardly qualify for the round of "8" of the World Cup.

Today's World Cup schedule in detail:

Netherlands-USA (17:00)

Argentina-Australia (21:00)

The 13th Matchday of the Pancyprian Championship continues with two very interesting matches. Nea Salamina welcomes APOEL and the pioneer Pafos welcomes Olympiacos.

Nea Salamina-APOEL (19:00)

A difficult exit for Vladan Milojevic's players who want to continue their frantic course. The psychology and the racing situation of APOEL is excellent after the four of the previous match against Omonia. In "Famagusta" usually the "blue-yellows" have a hard time and they will have to play well enough to escape with the double. The hosts also come from the away win against Olympiacos and show that they will not get involved in adventures. Under certain conditions they can also claim a place in the top six, especially if they win such games as tonight's.

Paphos-Olympiacos (19:00)

Pafos continues to lead the championship race, which seems capable of very big things this year and specifically to win this year's championship. It may not have been good enough with Aris in the summit derby that preceded it, but it reacted twice, equalised and proved that it now has metal and the experience of championship. It is the undisputed favorite against Olympiacos who may have changed coach (Makis Sergidis took over) but lost to Nea Salamina and remained in last place. It is very difficult for the "black-greens" who will have to perform the miracle to get a point from Paphos.
