After four years, the date of the soccer world cup returns, a championship that undoubtedly generates great expectations worldwide. That is why as a preview of this great event we always ask ourselves: Who will win the World Cup of the World Cup this year? This post will try to give a profile of who could be the team most likely to Take your precious trophy to your country.
Selections that are emerging as great candidates. They show it for different reasons: present, game style, individualities, projection. Here, a review of the four countries that are projected as favorites for the big event.
France
In these times, France is a very competitive team that could fight hand to hand to anyone, with some class A players (Antoine Griezmann and Pogba in the first step, Giroud, Kanté and Umtiti, a little below). In the future, if you adapt the pieces well, you could become an unbeatable Selection.
Argentina
It seems crazy - almost a provocation - to place the Argentine National Team in this select list, but, at a distance, it is necessary to separate what seemed an emergency with a reality. The team of Jorge Sampaoli qualified with the World Cup. It was a bad team that showed almost nothing. But he has Messi, of course.
Brazil
Brazil took out the South American Qualifiers as if they were easy, while the rest of their competitors (Uruguay, Colombia, Argentina, Chile), cry for a place in Russia. It will be necessary to determine how Ligue 1 affects Neymar. Today, the PSG striker is probably the most unbalancing player in the world. When it grabs the ball, it generates different things. From that starting point until June 2018 (two years), Brazil will repeat the team to the point of exhaustion and arrive in Russia like a little machine that knows everything it has to do. The perfect combination.
Germany
There is no Selection of the world that goes through such a long, regular and prosperous process as Germany. Joachimm Löw will fulfill his third World Cup in front of the team (in 2010 he finished in third place, in 2014 he left champion), which he knows perfectly. The coach, who started playing for the national team as assistant to Klinsmann in 2004, has such a great situation that he even has a plan for what will come after Russia, with players like Draxler, Kimmich or Wagner.
Germany, in the first place of Group C of the European qualifiers, plays too naturally. Probably has the best backbone in the world (Neuer, Hummels, and Müller), as well as a series of companions of a superlative level (Ozil, Reus, Khedira or Mario Gómez).
