Typical lineup of the 1/8 round of the World Cup 2018: "Little" Pele and the "super" Spider-Man
There is no doubt that the best players have made it into the list of the 2018 World Cup Round of 16 Best XI.
Right after the match between England and Colombia ended, Bleacher Report Football announced the best lineup of the 2018 World Cup Round of 16. Here the best names were voted.
The final stopper in the Best XI of the round of 16 is certainly no one more worthy than "spider-man" Kasper Schmeichel.

Kasper Schmeichel completely deserved to be named in the 2018 World Cup Round of 16 Best XI even though Denmark was eliminated. |
Although the Danish team lost to Croatia, the mark that Kasper Schmeichel left was too great when this goalkeeper successfully saved a penalty kick in the last minutes of the second extra time and two other penalties in the penalty shootout.
This achievement will help Kasper Schmeichel completely confidently overcome the huge shadow of his father Peter Schmeichel to have greater success in his career.
Playing above Kasper Schmeichel is a trio of central defenders: Ilya Kutepov (Russia) – John Stone (England) – Harry Maguire (England). A little higher up is the duo Mario Fernandes (Russia) and Diego Laxalt (Uruguay).
Excellent form in France's 4-3 win over Argentina has helped duo Paul Pogba and Kante be selected by Bleacher Report Football for the 2018 World Cup Round of 16 Team of the Week.

Finally, the attack line is where Bleacher Report Football had the easiest time voting for the 2018 World Cup Round of 16 Team of the Year with 3 undeniable names: Mbappe - Cavani - Neymar.
While Cavani scored a double to help Uruguay defeat Portugal of superstar Cris Ronaldo, Neymar had a hand in both of Brazil's goals against Mexico (scoring 1 goal and 1 assist).

Mbappe is being compared to "little" Pele. |
However, Mbappe was the most notable name when this 19-year-old "rising star" had a performance of a lifetime against the Argentina team. Here, Mbappe scored 2 goals in the 4-3 victory of the French team.
These two goals helped Mbappe become the second teenager after the King of Football Pele to score a brace in a World Cup knockout match. Many people believed that Mbappe would become the second Pele in the near future.
