FIFA World Cup: France And Uruguay Knock Out Argentina And Portugal Respectively; No WC Crown For Leo The Lion Or CR7

The knockout stage of the FIFA World Cup commenced on Saturday with two Round of 16 games, both contested in Russia:

At Kazan:

Kylian Mbappe scored twice (64', 68'; that's him being mobbed by teammates such at Paul Pogba---on top----after his first tally) as France came from behind to upend Argentina 4-3 and advanced to the quarterfinal round.

At Sochi:

Edinson Cavani scored twice (7', 62') as Uruguay defeated Portugal 2-1.  

This reaction from Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo says is all.
