The round of 16 pits record world champion Brazil against tournament dark horse Norway in an utterly tantalizing affair on Sunday.
Brazil went unbeaten during its group stage campaign to set up a date with Japan in the round of 32, but Carlo Ancelotti required a 95th-minute decider from Gabriel Martinelli to book his side’s spot in the next round. More last-gasp heroics could be needed against a formidable Norwegian team.
