    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.

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...

Spanish Government Could Lead to Suspension of National Team

FIFA has officially warned the Spanish government that any further involvement with upcoming election for the new president could lead to severe punishment. Spain has been said to have contacted the RFEF (Royal Spanish Football Federation) multiple times about who it's new leader would be. This is against the FIFA rules which state that any contact from governments can be seen as political interference. If Fifa finds that a government has influenced one of its associations they then have the power to suspend its national team. In the case of Spain, a country which revolves around football, that would be grave news for its people and a significant disappointment for its government. Not only would a Spanish suspension be controversial, but it would remove one of the tournaments strongest teams. While suspension is still far off, it should be interesting to see Fifa's next move.
