    It is interesting to see the host nation Russia getting knocked out in the first round. Egypt is a good squad with a few key players but I think home field could help Russia get out of group A. Besides Egypt, an African country I could see move out of the group stage is Senegal. Group H definitely is definitely the weakest and Poland aren't the strongest side. Colombia barely qualified for the World Cup so we will see how they are coming into the tournament. For a winner, it is tough to pick against the major teams like Germany and Brazil but this might be Belgium's time with the amount of stars they have within the squad. It'll be very interesting to see how things play out.

      Also I can't see Mexico not making it past the group stage. I think they will surpass Sweden in that spot. Group D is a mess of who is going to come in second as well. That I think will be the most exciting group.

Trump Could Ruin 2026 Bid for North America

The longtime front-runner to get the bid to host the 2026 World Cup has been North America. The combination of the U.S., Canada, and Mexico proves to be able to sustain such a large event with plentiful up-to-date infrastructure and, if given the bid, can really help for football to solidify itself in the U.S. sports market. It seems like a no-brainer going against the North African country of Morocco for the bid, but there's one thing that sticks out as a huge negative for North America: the Trump narrative. The North American bid officials have had a hard time deflecting the anti-American sentiment from across the world due to stereotype-perpetuating comments often made by President Trump. This makes FIFA officials second guess their once easy decision and question whether or not America will be able to unite foreign worlds together during the World Cup. Morocco is in a better place than ever to receive their long-awaited bid. After the World Cup was successfully held in So...

Controversial Video Refs to be Used in World Cup

The International Football Association Board (IFAB) is looking to change rules this weekend to allow for Video Assisted Refereeing (VAR) to be used in the 2018 World Cup. This possible change has been highly criticized by fans and coaches, including former FIFA president Sepp Blatter, who claimed the World Cup is not the place to "experiment." A lot of the outrage comes from yesterday's embarrassing controversy during the Tottenham-Rochdale match in the fifth-round of the FA Cup. The use of VAR generated nearly nine minutes of stoppage time, throwing off the players, coaches, refs, and fans. The use of video technology is to close help eliminate game-changing mistakes by referees, but some are arguing that those mistakes and emotion is what makes football, football. Fans also fear that FIFA wants to use VAR as another revenue stream by sponsoring each review, only further disrupting the game and angering the fans. Share your thoughts about the use of VAR technology...

CRISTIANO NAMES HIS WORLD CUP FAVORITES!

With the 2018 World cup getting closer every day so do national tensions. Everyone wants to believe their country has some shot to win, as irrational as it may be, and earn the right to hold the precious cup. Well, maybe not Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo... In a recent interview, Ronaldo said "We are not the favorites, we have to be honest" to Desimpedidos. And that was not all he had to say  "There are teams with more names, like Brazil, Spain, Germany, Argentina, but in football everything is possible".  Not only did Cristiano say that Portugal wouldn't be winning the World Cup but he went as far as to name some teams he favored! It may seem strange at first, but Cristiano is indeed honest. While Portugal does have Ronaldo, current Ballon d’Or winner, their World Cup team outlook is not as bright as it has been in the past. With Spain looking to be the strongest team in Group B, Portugal needs to ensure they make it out of group stage before...
