The Atlas Lions have defended brilliantly in this tournament and now the question is whether they can continue to do so on Saturday against a runaway Portugal who just thrashed Switzerland 6-1.

In this week’s Ballz to the Wall Podact, Phakaaathi editor Jonty Mark, along with football writer Chepo Ntsoelengoe, discuss all of the last 16 matches, from Morocco’s stunning win to Senegal’s collapse against England and South Korea’s thrashing of Brazil.

The team is also discussing the quarter-final draw and giving their opinion on who we’ll see in the World Cup semi-finals.
