The line-up for the knockout stage of the World Cup has been confirmed, with 10 Tottenham players set to be in round of 32 action over the coming days.
The group stages of the World Cup have now come to an end, with 16 teams bowing out of the competition.
Along with the two teams that topped each of the 12 groups, eight of the best 12 third-placed teams have also progressed to the knockout stages.
While the tournament is over for Andy Robertson and Rodrigo Bentancur, with Scotland and Uruguay bowing out, 10 other Spurs stars have seen their nations march on.
Fixtures involving Tottenham players in World Cup knockouts
Micky van de Ven’s and Jan Paul van Hecke’s Netherlands will be in action in a huge clash against Morocco in what will be one of the games of the next round.
However, Tottenham’s Argentine pair, Cristian Romero and Marcos Senesi, have a much easier draw as they will face minnows, Cape Verde. Djed Spence’s England also have a very winnable clash against DR Congo after topping their group.
Things are much trickier for Lucas Bergvall’s Sweden, Luka Vuskovic’s Croatia, and Pape Matar Sarr’s Senegal, who will take on France, Portugal and Belgium, respectively.

An all-Spurs clash is coming up in the round of 32
One all-European round of 32 clash will see two senior Tottenham stars go up against one another later this week.
Pedro Porro’s Spain, who finished top of Group H, will take on Kevin Danso’s Austria, who finished second in Group J, at the Los Angeles Stadium on Thursday.
It will be the second time in the tournament that Danso is coming up against a Tottenham teammate, having lost to Romero’s Argentina last weekend in the group stage.
