On the pitch, June 15 delivered a day of jaw-dropping results. Spain were held to a 0-0 draw by Cape Verde — a result almost nobody predicted. Belgium couldn’t get past Egypt. Uruguay were stalled by Saudi Arabia, echoing the Saudis’ famous upset of Argentina four years ago. Iran, too, contributed to the chaos. It was the kind of day that makes the World Cup irresistible: four matches, four favorites, and not a single victory among them.
