The 2022 FIFA World Cup is closer to the end than ever, the quarter-finals began with an electrifying game between Croatia and Brazil, but things did not go well for the Brazilians as they were eliminated during penalty shootouts.

After the quarter-finals the teams will play the semi-finals hoping to reach the big final where anything could happen, but it is likely that France will be one of the national teams that will play in the 2022 World Cup Final.

On the other hand, the NFL is also approaching the postseason, something like the ‘knockout stage’ of the league, and Bill Belichick knows that the Patriots are in a bad position with a record of 6-6-0 overall entering Week 14.
