It’s the semi-finals of the NCAA Tournament this weekend, and to say that it’s been one of the best tournaments in living memory would be an understatement. Andrei Vasilevskiy Lightning Jersey . Alex Ferguson previews the “Final Four”. Villanova Wildcats vs Oklahoma SoonersYoull see Oklahomas Buddy Hield, the best player in college basketball, and the Villanova team who have played beautiful, unselfish basketball throughout the year.Its not as though both sides are wildly underestimated - they were both given No 2 seeds, but Villanova had a history of disappointing, while no-one thought Oklahoma would be in the Final Four ahead of Kansas. Well….the critics were wrong. Hield has been the outstanding player of March Madness And Villanova have got there due to their excellent defence - they suffocated everyones favourites Kansas, beating them 64-59 in a classic. Oklahoma have advanced mainly because Hield has been hotter than fire lately, scoring 27, 36, 17 and 37 in his last four outings. And the 37? It was during Oklahomas big game against No 1-ranked Oregon in the Elite Eight, who they blew out 80-68.Hields excellent from three-point range, so Villanova had better be good at smothering him if they hope to continue.Also, look out for OUs Isaiah Cousins and Jordan Woodward, who can also kill opponents from three-point range. Josh Hart of the Villanova Wildcats shoots the ball On the other side of the court, you shouldnt laugh at Nova, though. They might not have a big-name scorer, but thats more design than bad luck. There are no egos on this team, Wildcats player Jalen Brunson told US TV outlet CSN Philadelphia. No-ones saying I want to get mine, no-ones like Ive got to get my stats.Everyones really out there playing for each other… Everyone that goes in or goes out has the same intensity on defense and in rebounding and thats really what matters most. And everyone had better be on tip-top shape against Hield & co!PREDICTION: Villanova are a 4/6 favourite with SkyBet after their Kansas win, and Oklahoma are an 11/10 underdog. Hield remains hot….Oklahoma win an upset.North Carolina Tar Heels vs Syracuse Orange Marcus Paige of the North Carolina Tar Heels shoots A lot of critics said about Syracuses entry to the NCAA Championship: They shouldnt even be there. And while the Oranges in-season record was ordinary at best (19-13), and reflected in their lowly 10th seed in the tournament, the team has very much shown they belong here.They scored a mega-upset over No 1 Virginia - a team who handled them easily in the regular season - in the Elite Eight to cement their spot in Houston, and suddenly, everyones thinking: Can they unseat North Carolina, who are playing brilliantly?Well, history says no - North Carolina have won both games the two teams have played this year by nine and five points respectively - and are a big favourite with Sky Bet (1/6) to win the third. Syracuse Orange have made the final four No-ones even come close to beating the Tar Heels in their four games thus far, with the Heels racking up double digit victories in every game.What Tar Heels coach Roy Williams has done brilliantly is not make the team dependent on one scorer. If you can stop one of the teams most outstanding players in Brice Johnson, whos averaging 21 points per game, then youll have to stop Marcus Paige or Kennedy Meeks. Yeah, good luck.Its been pointed out that this game will also match up two greats of the game in head coaches Jim Boeheim and Williams, but they should also point out that if Syracuse can score an upset, itll be the biggest upset since David beat that big guy Goliath.PREDICTION: Tar Heels roll.

Kane collected a pass from midfielder Ross Barkley in the 64th minute and beat goalkeeper Dario Melo with a low shot at the near post to give England its second point in Group E after drawing 2-2 against Iraq in its opener. It was a hard-fought result for coach Peter Taylors team, which narrowly escaped defeat when Bryan Rabellos strike in the closing minutes hit the crossbar. Nicolas Castillo had put Chile in front from the penalty spot in the 32nd minute with his second goal of the tournament. A late tackle by Daniel Potts brought down Chile winger Angelo Henriquez as he dribbled his way in from the right. Referee Alireza Faghani of Iran didnt whistle immediately, taking several seconds to make up his mind. It was the second penalty against England this tournament. After another foul, Potts later received his second yellow card of the competition and will miss Englands decisive group match against Egypt on Saturday. Iraq was playing Egypt in the groups late game onn Wednesday. Nikita Kucherov Lightning Jersey. England struggled to keep position in the first half and only created danger with two shots from well outside the area, with Barkley watching his effort go just wide while Kanes shot was saved by Melo. Chile remained in control for the early stages of the second half but failed to create clear chances. The South Americans then lost the plot after Kanes equalizer. England started to turn up the pressure and came close to scoring when substitute Alex Pritchard headed the ball straight at Melo from close range in the 82nd minute. In Group F, Uruguay bounced back from its opening defeat against Croatia to beat New Zealand 2-0 with goals from Giorgian De Arrascaeta and Nicolas Lopez. After four minutes, De Arrascaeta slotted home a free kick from just outside the penalty box after he was fouled by New Zealands Tim Payne. Uruguay missed several opportunities to double the score before Lopez tucked home the rebound after his initial effort hit the post in the 75th. Uzbekistan and Croatia, which have three points each in Group F, were playing each other later Wednesday.
