The format of the World Cup has been ridiculous. It has taken weeks to simply eliminate a whole lot of teams who, in all truth, should be playing in their own tournament and not in the World Cup. There has been no punishment for teams like England, who lost more games than they should have, but still advanced to the next stage and none of the minnows made it through anyway.
A round robin stage, with some of the weakest teams in the world followed by a knock-out stage of the best teams in the world is almost the exact opposite of how the tournament should work. It is no wonder that hardly anybody has been enthusiastic about the tournament until now.
