    We’re getting a fair bit ahead now, but if England were to make it this far, they could face the defending champions.

    Perhaps the favourites to reach this stage would be Argentina, who won all three of their group games as Lionel Messi continued to deliver on the biggest stage of all in the month he turned 39, scoring five goals so far.

    Their first knockout tie is against surprise package Cape Verde, before a last-16 match against the winner of Australia and Egypt.

    Also in this section of the draw are Colombia, who would face Argentina in the quarter-final if both nations win their first two knockout fixtures. They topped their group, ahead of Portugal, having won two of their three matches.

    Other perhaps less likely potential opponents in the final four include Switzerland, Algeria and Ghana, who are all in the same side of the draw as England.

    Reaching the semi-final would mean a return for England to Atlanta, where they beat DR Congo in their last-32 match.
