With the wheat separated from the chaff (some of it anyway), it’s time for the knockout stages, starting with the Round of 16. We have a seven-goal thriller as Belgium derail the Soviet juggernaut. Elsewhere, France topple Italy in the battle of the champions and the Danish summer romance ends in bitter heartbreak. Forward to the quarter-finals, where France and Brazil meet in a scintillating encounter, West Germany poop the Mexican party, Belgium edge past Spain and there’s the small matter of Argentina vs England, featuring the little man with a great left foot and a sneaky left hand.
