Take a look at some of the greatest shocks in World Cup history.
Argentina 0-1 Cameroon (1990)
Defending champions Argentina headed to the 1990 World Cup still spearheaded by captain Diego Maradona, and would go on to reach the final for a second successive tournament.
But they'd run into a formidable Cameroon side in their tournament opener, falling to a stunning defeat.
France 0-1 Senegal (2002)
Reigning world champions, reigning European champions. Even without the injured Zinedine Zidane, surely minnows Senegal would be no match for tournament favourites France?
Spain 1-5 Netherlands (2014)
Becoming the first team to win three major tournaments on the bounce, Spain had assembled arguably the strongest side football had ever seen, but it all came crashing down at the 2014 World Cup.
Brazil 1-7 Germany (2014)
Perhaps the biggest shock in World Cup history, not because of the outcome but the score, as Germany annihilated hosts Brazil in the 2014 World Cup semi-final in their own back yard.
