What to think about the FIFA world cup this year?


This year is the new FIFA world cup, it’s the 20th FIFA world cup in history. Brazil has won five times, with one title less is Italy. Germany has won 3 world cups and lost two world wars. Argentina and Uruguay which are rivals have won two titles each. France, England and Spain won once. Most people are in favor of Brazil, Holland, Germany, Portugal and Argentina. Why? Because those countries have people favorites like Neymar, Lionel Messi, Ozil, and Cristiano Ronaldo and so on.   

Everyone is thinking about Spain and those really good countries. Why not think about your country? Many people love soccer. There are over 270 million people who play soccer in the world. That’s 4% of the world population, exactly the population of the U.S. or more. I think that Brazil, Spain, Argentina, Italy, Portugal and Uruguay have a good chance of winning. Why? These countries always get a chance, they also have the best players.

If we count what continents won more FIFA world cups, it’s Europe with 10. South America has a total of 9 FIFA world cups won. There is a lot of rivalry between European and South American countries. Especially Argentina and Portugal. People can’t exactly tell what can happen unless they have a time machine (which we don’t have) they can’t tell. Anything can happen in the FIFA world cup. “We’re excited. We’re looking forward to the challenge and we think we’re a good team. We think we’re a good team that can get better in a lot of areas.” U.S.A. Soccer Coach.  Even the worse country can beat the best country in the world. We’ll just have to wait.
