This year’s edition of the FIFA World Cup has brought with it a box full of surprises. Fans wait eagerly to see the outcomes of their favorite teams.
With the FIFA World Cup 2022 being well underway, people all over the world have been picking their teams, and the FIFA Fever is spreading wild. But with it comes the speculation of which team this year appears to be the best equipped to take the trophy home and which teams look undercooked.
This year’s World Cup had been anticipated to be like no other and the first round of Group-Stage matches of the edition has rounded up ample drama and surprises for the audience. Much of the predicted results of the matches have been thwarted as the tournament unfolded, changing the pre-estimated views of who would be more likely to win the trophy as surprising new packages propped up for the audience. As the team of the host country was eliminated, all eyes are now glued to what new surprises the next round would bring.
Here are a few of the most preferred teams for the win so far:
Brazil:
Brazil has always been one of the most loved and preferred teams during the World Cups and has a worldwide fan following. After the tough competition in the last match against Serbia, Brazil emerged victorious, all thanks to Richarlison’s double. However, Neymar’s injury might put a dent in their efforts if they do not cope better than they did in 2014.
Argentina:
The clash between Brazil and Argentina fans has been as legendary as the World Cup itself, and this year it is no different. After Argentina’s shocking defeat to Saudi Arabia in the opening match, fans have been left really heartbroken, as this was not how they expected the Argentinian Football star Lionel Messi’s final World Cup to begin. But the Copa America winners have a team that is capable enough to turn the tables around.
France:
Though Australia put up a strong competition, France eventually got their game up, winning with a score of 4-1. Even with the injury of Lucas Hernandez, the capable performances of players like KylianMbappe and Ousmane Dembele are truly reliable, and their fans know it.
Spain
Despite their easy win against Costa Rica with a score of 7-0, Spain is coming up as one of the most exciting teams to watch in this year’s World Cup. Having gathered quite a significant fan base, people are now eager to see how the team fares against their strong opponents in the upcoming matches.
Germany
Germany faced a distressing defeat against Japan losing with a score of 2-1, but time and again the team has proven to be the most organized and clinical team in Europe, with a massive fan-base worldwide. With the upcoming match against Spain, all eyes are on the two teams, which might just turn out to be one of the most memorable matches this year. A defeat can knock the team out of the tournament for good.
But with the brilliant performances of the teams this year especially that of Japan and Iran, the audience views might well be altered as the tournament progresses.
