CORAL GABLES (CBSMiami) - It's game on for fans watching the make-or-break matches for Group A of the World Cup.

"So excited for the game and we gonna win, we gotta win this time," Eduardo Serrano, a Mexico fan.

"When you meet someone when you fall in love that's the same thing that you feel inside."

Fans cheered on their teams at Fritz and Franz Bierhaus in Coral Gables Monday.

"Every one's always cheering for their own team really good energy, standing up and shouting," said Ingrid Hentschel.

Host nation Brazil took on already eliminated Cameroon while CBS4's Gaby Fleischman was at the establishment.

"Anything can happen, Croatia has been playing really well and Mexico has been playing really good too, really all depends," added Ingrid Hentschel.
