Former England international striker Gary Lineker has sent a scathing message to FIFA after what he described as "the greatest group stage in World Cup history."
The group stages of the 2022 tournament in Qatar concluded on Friday, with Brazil and Switzerland booking their place in the knockout section of the competition.
What preceded Friday's action was an enthralling final round of group fixtures, with nations like Japan, South Korea and Morocco progressing in dramatic fashion. Traditional World Cup forces like Germany, Belgium and Uruguay were eliminated too.
