'Surprise', 'Stun' or 'Shock' has become a recurring theme of the FIFA World Cup 2022. Day 8 of the Qatar World Cup followed the theme as Costa Rica first pulled off a surprise win over Japan. That was followed by Morocco's stunning win over Belgium before Croatia recovered from an early set-back to beat Canada. Finally, substitutes were under the spotlight as Spain and Germany settled for a stalemate.

With day 8 of the tournament behind us, here is what is in store for us on day 9th of the FIFA World Cup 2022.

The day's first match will see Cameroon take on Serbia in a Group G fixture at the Al Janoub stadium. Both Cameroon and Serbia come into this match on the back of defeats. Cameroon were hard done by Cameroon-born but now Swiss footballer Breel Embolo who netted the only goal in the match between Cameroon and Switzerland. Serbia were humbled by Brazil thanks to two superb goals by Richarlison. It is a final chance for both Cameroon and Serbia to keep their hopes alive in FIFA World Cup 2022.
