Which individual game in the group stage is the most important?

Personally I think it is Spain vs Netherlands. The 2nd place team in that group will almost definitely have to play Brazil, the favorite to win, and the 1st place team gets to meet Croatia or Mexico in the next round.

Any game including two of the following teams will be huge as well: England, Italy, Uruguay.

USA vs Portugal is also a big game.

Thoughts??

    The key game is usually each teams 2nd game. Some interesting 2nd games:

    Cameroon vs. Croatia

    Spain vs. Chile (whoever wins this game should win the group)

    Netherlands vs. Australia (Netherlands need to win that)

    Colombia vs. Ivory Coast

    Uruguay vs. England (whoever wins should win the group)

    Switzerland vs. France

    Nigeria vs. Bosnia.H

    United States vs. Portugal

    Belgium vs. Russia
