FIFA World Cup: Every team that banned sex, has been knocked out

New Delhi: All countries which banned their players from having sex at the 2014 World Cup have been eliminated, while those with a more relaxed view on the matter are enjoying better results on the pitch.

Germany and Holland bosses allowed wives and girlfriends to stay in team hotels and both have made their way safely into the quarter-finals of the tournament.

Meanwhile, France, Brazil and Costa Rica who have more complicated rules regarding sex, but still allow it, also remain active in the competition as do Argentina, Belgium and Colombia whose preference isn't recorded.
