By the end of Saturday night, the full list of 32 teams left in the tournament will be officially confirmed.
Packed stadiums and millions of viewers at home watched the World Cup drama unfold across the world.
One thing that fans noticed while taking in the live TV coverage was a sound being played in the stadiums.
A ding-dong noise over the PA system in the arenas was overheard, leaving viewers confused.
“What is that sound that keeps being played?” asked one.
Another said: “What is that noise at the World Cup?”
Nothing visible on TV could be seen when it chimed.
However, it can be revealed what the sound was.
Fans inside the stadiums across the host countries were being shown alerts and replays of goals of the games going on at the same time.
The sound was to alert supporters to look up and watch the giant screens to see what was going on elsewhere.
