Tim Vickery sounds the alarm for the 2026 World Cup round of 16, predicting the tournament could hit a wall of boredom after a goal-packed group stage. The veteran journalist identifies a specific culprit for this threat to the show: Carlos Queiroz. The Portuguese coach, now in charge of Ghana, is notorious for his ultra-defensive tactics and habit of "parking the bus", a strategy that Vickery fears will dominate the knockout stages.
