After four years the soccer community reunites in Russia 2018. The time when national soccer teams fight ones more to prove they are the best of the best. In the last World Cup hosted by Brazil, it did not go so well for the Brazilian team. They defeated tough opponents but were taken out in the semifinals leaving their home fans in shock when  loosing 7-1 to the German squad. This year the teams will play with more emotion and will try to get revenge on those who took them out in the previous World Cup. Germany will be going to this world Cup with their heads high since they were crowned the world champions after defeating Argentina in the final. Germany has basically the same team for this tournament since most of the players who played in the last World Cup were at a young age.

This year the Germans come in as the favorites since they won the last World Cup but teams have upgraded and they have much more talent that can cause Germany to slip and tumble. There is also a couple new teams that are making their first appearance in a World Cup so that must be exciting for them and their fans.

 

The groups are now set and all their is to do is wait and hope that this years World Cup is as exciting as the 2014 World Cup.
