World Cup 2026

[ralke]

Who's going to win the World Cup 2026? Would like to hear opinions. Unfortunately Chile didn't classified to the World Cup, anyways, it's a joy to see the matches. So, who do you think is going to Win the World Cup this year? I created a poll so you can vote for the current countries in competition. I created the thread at July 1st, right after Mexico - Ecuador match (this mean, that eliminated countries are not in the poll) and some of the options has two countries, in order to have every country registered on the poll (randomly paired them), I'll try to edit it later to only keep the round of 8 teams.

France look the strongest. Argentina could be a huge threat again. Would have said Germany before the big upset from Paraguay. Spain always a contender but not seen them against a top team yet. England look inconsistent. Brazil look a little weak. Portugal/Norway have a minor shot. Belgium /USA etc no chance.

No Joachim, no trophy. Players are really good but there's nobody that can make an impact with such talents.
Brazil players cannot play together good vs stronger teams and play insane vs weaker ones. Every player wants to be a star and i doubt they respect the coach
Argentina/France in final, France wins this time
Spain/England 3rd place, England 3rd

wtf i voted for Argentina somehow xD

Round of 16 is set! Germany, Sweden, South Africa, Netherlands, Croatia, Austria, Bosnia, Senegal, Japan, Ivory Coast, Ecuador, Congo, Cape Verde, Australia, Algeria and Ghana lost their games. We currently have a total of 25 votes at the poll.

Spoiler: Current votes

Any predictions on the upcoming matches? We have Paraguay vs France, Canada vs Morrocco, Portugal vs Spain, USA vs. Belgium, Brasil vs Norway, Mexico vs England, Argentina vs Egypt, and Switzerland vs Colombia. Or any player that's been calling your attention at the competition? For me Bouaddi he's an amazing talent.

Ancelotti is really good, and calm. I think Brazil weakness is at midfield, Paquetá is not doing well and Casemiro can fall against a strong physical demand. Besides that, they still have Neymar at bench, I think he's a hidden card in cases where Brazil have a draw and goes to extra time.

Spain always a contender but not seen them against a top team yet.

It seems that now is the time to show they're contenders winning against Portugal. But I think that Portugal might win this game. Recent game history shows that their matches usually end in 1-0 / 0-1, and their last game ended in penalties where Portugal won. According to this data, it seems that Portugal vs Spain will have extra time and is going to be a very balanced match.
