In part one, we dove into the Seven Saddest Fans at the World Cup as the tournament finished up the group stage. Sixteen teams entered the knockout round, and now we're down to only two.
France, a FIFA World Cup tournament favorite from the start, is favorite across the board to knock off this tournament's Cinderella story, Croatia. When the two countries meet on Sunday at 11:00 a.m. EST at Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, the world will be watching, and fans will be on the edge of their seats.
You can guarantee that when that match ends, there will be some very, very sad fans. When the world is watching, the cameras hardly ever miss a crying face.
As we build up to the tournament final, and the third-place match between Belgium and England, it's time once again to relish in the sad fans caught on camera.
Here's part two of the Saddest Fans at the World Cup:
Japan kept the party clean, but couldn't dry their tears.

Even the youngest Uruguay fans weren't safe from emotion.

This one's a classic from 2014, but it perfectly sums up what it means to be one of the Saddest Fans at the 2018 World Cup.
Unfortunately, Sad Captain America sums up our Fans of the World Cup for today perfectly http://t.co/CSpolJOFxa pic.twitter.com/pL4QkTN8zT
