Super Smashing Superlative Sunday

Welcome to a Crossfire Nations Cup tripple header this sunny Sunday. We've an awesome schedule of Enemy Territory lined up. This, the first three matches of the Quarter Final stages - 6 of the best nations go head to head, aiming to secure their place in the Semi Finals - just three matches from glory. Finland, Japan, Belgium, Germany, Czech Republic, Chile, Hungary & Poland remain - who'll make it to the Semi Final stage?

[center FINLAND vs CZECH REPUBLIC ]
After a fantastic result against the United Kingdom the Czechs are thinking the impossible. They've a well rehearsed squad full of familiar faces. And then there's Finland... if I need to explain their qualities and history - you're in the wrong game.

Prediction: Japan secured an easy victory against Russia in the last round, and have already taken a map from tournament favourites Finland in the group stages. So assuming all pings are equal - we've another nail biter. The Belgians take it, narrowly 4:2.

Prediction: Who would call this match? By right the Germans should walk this. But Chile, with a disregard for reputation have already upset the Aussies enroute to the quarters - and pings could play a big part. Chile have the potential to sneak a map. 4:2 Germany.
