Who will lift football's most prestigious FIFA World Cup trophy?

Who will wear the historic football World Cup crown? The FIFA Football World Cup is now in its final stage. The final will be held between Spain and Argentina on July 20 at 12.30 in the morning. Both are strong teams and the curiosity about who will win has reached its peak. This final match is also being described as the final between the South American and European continents.

This World Cup was special for several reasons. This time, forty-eight teams were allowed to participate, so the total number of matches increased to one hundred and four. The United States, Canada and Mexico hosted this World Cup. It is noteworthy that the cost of organizing was also low because the basic facilities required for football were already available in these countries.

The favorite teams to win the World Cup, such as Germany, the Netherlands, Portugal, Brazil, etc., finished their games before the quarter-finals and said goodbye to the World Cup. The strong teams, France and England, lost in the semi-finals.

This World Cup has witnessed the last game of the football career of many star players. For star players like Neymar of Brazil and Cristiano Ronaldo of Portugal, this is the last World Cup. Cristiano Ronaldo of Portugal, who has scored the most goals in international matches, always has a feeling that he could not win the World Cup in his life. The same goes for Neymar of Brazil.

Argentine star player Lionel Messi literally became a football legend. He scored twenty-one goals in World Cup tournaments, breaking the record of Germany's Miroslav Klose. France's Kylian Mbappe is also behind Messi, having scored 20 goals. Mbappe is likely to play two or three more World Cups and break Messi's record. Since the beginning of the World Cup, Messi, Mbappe, and Norway's Erling Haaland have been in the Golden Boot competition, scoring goals like rivals.

In this World Cup, the Cape Verde team, which has a population of only five hundred thousand, has displayed a magnificent game. The game they played against the defending World Cup champion Argentina attracted the entire world like a needle. It is not wrong to say that the team's goalkeeper, forty-one-year-old Vozinha, became a superstar because of this World Cup. The game Japan played against Brazil in the pre-quarters is unforgettable. The host countries, America, Canada, and Mexico, failed to reach the quarter-finals despite their excellent games.

The game of Norway's Erling Haaland was magnificent. His control and speed on the ball were unmatched. England's Harry Kane and Bellingham, Brazil's Vincent Junior, Senegal's Ismaila Sarr, Mexico's Julian Quenonas, and Spain's Yemal all made the spectators dance and dance.

Lionel Messi scored a hat-trick against Algeria, France's Ousmane Dembele scored a hat-trick against Norway, and Canada's Jonathan David scored a hat-trick against Qatar.

When famous teams go out, one thing becomes clear. What is needed for the game is a team effort. Individual play is not enough to win the title.

There were also controversies in this World Cup. The Iranian team was asked to leave immediately after the game when they were playing in America, the controversy over fouls during the game between Argentina and Egypt, the violence that occurred in France when Morocco lost to France, the American player was given a red card and banned for one match, the American president called the FIFA president and asked for the ban to be lifted, the denial of a US visa to a FIFA-qualified referee from Somalia, the excessive increase in ticket prices for the World Cup tournament... These are some of the controversies that have caused heated debate. It is a well-known fact that when the American president was not awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, FIFA established a Peace Prize and awarded it to the American president. Despite all these controversies, the World Cup was a success, and now the high-voltage final match remains.

The FIFA World Cup will be exactly a century old in 2030.

The next World Cup is being jointly hosted by Morocco, Portugal, and Spain. Not only that, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay are also hosting some matches to commemorate the centenary.

So the total number of host countries is six. This will also be a record. There is a possibility of sixty-four teams participating next time. We still have to wait four years for that.

Anyway. Now the World Cup final is still pending and the fact that who will be the champion is the reason for intense curiosity.
