Will a potential second quarterfinal be known?

Group B this morning starts with a former champion who is in danger already of not qualifying to the knockout stages. And (a news) from the opposite direction sounds that another South American country wants to follow Colombia's steps by reaching the quarterfinals.

- Brazil - Haiti. The Selecao could be in big trouble exiting the anniversary championship. Brazilians who are missing some key players are not considered favorites to take the championship, but still...it will be real sad if the go away too early. But if they want to 'salvage' something and be 'trusted' again Brazil should record a victory against the debut team of Haiti who came in this finals thanks to a play off game at a start of the year. Back then Haiti was strong, coherent team full of ideas. But now they are recorded only loses. And Brazil should know how to take advantage of that situation by adding first three points to their name.
- Ecuador - Peru. Two well known rivals from South America. Peru, together with Haiti, are considered as underdogs in the group. But Los Incas are in perfect position at the moment and, after their minimal win against Haiti, with a win Peru can qualify for the last 16. This morning they play second toughest in the group - Ecuador, who desperately want a win. Ecuador is seeing a chance of taking all six points, as they already played the hard team (Brazil) on the first day. It will not be easy for Amarillos to record their first win but at the end they will be victorious.
