World Cup Football 2018
We are not certain whether the World Cup Football 2018 will be held as per dates on account of two belligerent Presidents?
However, 23 nations so far cruised into the final round, while nine more will join them by November 15, as the draw will be held in December to pencil eight groups of four, with top two from each cluster qualifying into the knock-out stage. Of the six continental champions, two have qualified till date, three missed the destination, while the fate of two others hang in balance.
All the past winners except Italy have so far sailed into the final round. If Italy succeed in the play-off, that would be a great event in the football history. Highest five times Champions Brazil moved into the final round before six months with four matches in hand, which is another record.
Olympic Champions Brazil and Confederation Cup winners Germany are considered as the top two seeds. In the past, no Confederation Cup holders won the World Cup, as such, can Germany break the record? No country outside Europe (11) and South America ((9) have been able to capture the world football’s most prestigious trophy, while Brazil have the exceptional record of playing in every edition, winning cup in every continent.
Now can we expect a miracle in the 21st edition of the World Cup to be held in Russia?
