Quarter Finals

Now we're getting serious, the last eight, and in the first time in World Cup history the Quarter Finals are populated by the eight teams that finished top of their respective groups.  For us that means that not only are the best eight teams still in the competition, but it also means that all eight food bloggers are still cooking and blogging recipies for their countries.

Sadly with the completion of these matches we will lose half of or bloggers.

Below is the classified results of the Quarter Finals of the 2014 World Cup (Food Challenge).

Brazil (Coxinhas) 2 v 1 Colombia (Papas Rellenas Colombianas)
France (Jarret de Veau) 0 v 1 Germany (Spatzle)
Netherlands (Erwtensoep) 0 (4) v 0 (3) Costa Rica (Sopa Negra)
Argentina (Spicy Beef Empanadas) 1 v 0 Belgium (Gaufres de Bruxelles)

So with the results in we say thank you and goodbye to Colombia (Soup Tuesday), France (Tonight's Menu), Costa Rica (Occasional Drivel), and Belgium (Food and Frets).  Next up it's the Semi Finals.  I wonder if there will be any shocks in store or will my pre-world cup prediction of an all South American final come true?
