<h2>Paul's Telegraph Fantasy Football World team reveal: Round 4 and 5 review</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We’re entering the last four games of the World Cup and I’m currently sat around 600</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">th</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s safe to say rotating the premium blocks hasn’t been as successful in the last two rounds, particularly moving onto Brazil and then Portugal.</span></p>
<ol>
<li><b> The Brazil block</b></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It felt the obvious move to make; Brazil played in the latter stages of the last 16, and then in the opening match of the quarters, making an instant 2-for-0 over most teams if they qualified. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">South Korea’s consolation in the five-time champions’ win hurt, followed up by Croatia’s extra-time equaliser in the next round. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">To compound the misery, the 2002 winners were eliminated on penalties, so I had to look at teams to move to.</span></p>
<ol start="2">
<li><b> Boosting Argentine numbers</b></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I took a gamble on Argentina winning and progressing over the Netherlands, which worked out OK. <strong>Emiliano Martinez</strong>, <strong>Nicolas Otamendi</strong> and <strong>Julian Alvarez</strong> only returned three points between them, however my other new defensive recruit <strong>Nahuel Molina</strong> scored. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With Argentina progressing, I’ve left all their assets in my team for the upcoming semi-final against Croatia.</span></p>
<ol start="3">
<li><b> Portuguese focus</b></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Portugal had the shortest odds for qualification from the remaining quarter-finals, so I moved all players who had been eliminated from my team and moved onto the Iberian country’s assets. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A 1-0 defeat meant I again needed to reconsider my follow-up strategy.</span></p>
