FIFA WORLD CUP RUSSIA 2018 Group D:  Most Important Players

FIFA WORLD CUP RUSSIA 2018 Group D:  Most Important Players   The very tricky fixture is shaping this group into a very interesting one. Group D needs some friendships to be on hold for the Cup when it comes to Croatia and Argentina. The teammates Ivan Rakitić and Lionel Messi. This will be an exciting group on the World Cup. There might be surprises from Iceland and Nigeria too. And maybe they could change the outcome of the game, who knows.   #1 Argentina – Lionel Messi Against Ecuador, Messi scored a hat-trick so Argentina can qualify for the World Cup. Messi had an outstanding performance well known as one of the best players in the world could have. After losing three finals we hope that Messi will be determined to score some more goals and bring a bunch of wins so Argentina can take the trophy at home.  His performance never fails, so let’s see how he’s going to show off.   #2  Iceland – Gylfi Sigurðsson Being the smallest country to ever participate in a World Cup Iceland is going to make some history in Russia. The leading goal scorer aboard with his dead ball skills will make him the biggest threat to whoever  Iceland plays against. He has a goal scoring habit that makes so easy for the player to be one of the top goal scorers.  Sigurdsson is the best chance of high profile player that Iceland has on the pitch.   #3 Croatia – Ivan Perišić This might be the last year of having chance Croatian talents like Mario Mandžukić, Vedran Ćorluka, and Luka Modrić to play together on a Cup. Getting on the side of being 30 brings some bad news. Perišić is believed to be the creator of chances to actually be the key to live up their title as Dark Horses. Years ago in the previous Cups, they used to underperform, but this year Croatia has Ivan Perišić on the left side of the midfield.   #4 Nigeria – Kelechi Iheanacho Nigeria remained unbeaten during qualification, so they made some magic on the field indeed. Even though Iheanacho didn’t have the best of debut season at Leicester he is ready to prove his worth and to show his impressive skills and performance. Expect that he will show the best of him for being the best player that Nigeria has. Along with the skills of Iwobi, Moses, and Ndidi, they will hopefully get Nigeria to some higher position in this group if they have enough luck. FIFA WORLD CUP RUSSIA 2018 Group D

FIFA WORLD CUP RUSSIA 2018 Group C: Most Important Players

FIFA WORLD CUP RUSSIA 2018 Group C   Even though Group C looks like an easy group to follow it might point us wrong. The European sides France and Denmark make this group very interesting to watch at the World Cup in Russia. We don’t know if we can expect something more from Peru and Australia, while the expectations of high progress are already placed on Denmark and France. The Australians are no pushovers and Peru ranked 11th so let’s see what the Cup holds. #1 Denmark – Christian Eriksen Thanks to Eriksen’s play, Denmark secured the spot on the European Qualifications. He scored an amazing hat-trick against Ireland so he ensured Denmark to participate in the World Cup. He ended the qualifications scoring 11 goals, second only to Lewandowski. Expect Christian Erikson to be the maestro of scoring goals, also showing off his great vision of well-planned strikes and passing abilities.   #2 France – Antoine Griezmann The hard-working Atletico Madrid forward is the well known Antoine Griezmann. Griezmann offers special versatility when he runs the defenders, his energy and dribbling abilities make him the energetic player that he is on the field. This capability sets him apart in the French young team of talents. The strong forward line for France is in the hands of Griezmann and Giroud.   #3 Australia – Mile Jedinak Scoring the phenomenal hat-trick against Honduras for the national team of Australia, Jedinak booked the ticket to Russia directly for Australia. His strong midfield game and his presence followed by his set-piece abilities make him the most valuable player for Australia. Jednak and Mooy are the best that Australia has, so expect the game to be consistent. Jednak’s imposing manners are the reason he patrols the midfield and paces so strong.   #4 Peru – Paolo Guerrero Due to cocaine ban he almost missed the chance to go to the Cup but fortunately, the ban has been reduced and appealed. Guerrero undoubtedly will show the set-piece taking ability and his strength in the air that is in use of Peru. Guerrero is a big deal on the pitch, an all-time leading goal scorer for Peru and the strongest point when it comes to attacking the field. The combo that he makes with Farfan will make the most interesting adventure to be seen, so expect quality fun times at the pitch. FIFA WORLD CUP RUSSIA 2018 Group C . Most Important Players  

FIFA WORLD CUP RUSSIA 2018 Group B:  Most Important Players

FIFA WORLD CUP RUSSIA 2018 Group B:  Most Important Players   The game between the Iberian rivals Spain and Portugal is one of the most awaited matches of the group stages. This group B is unbalanced because of the draw, European giants like Portugal and Spain with Iran and Morocco. Portugal already had major success at Euro 2016 by defeating France in the final. This year we hope Morocco to gain some points having in mind the defensive and pragmatic side of Iran and the face of Carlos Queiroz. Even though is difficult to hold on to a group like this one. We hope they will have more of a luck so can keep up with this teams and have some progress in this group.   #1 Portugal – Cristiano Ronaldo The reigning European Champions, Portugal, and Ronaldo beat France in the final at Euro 2016. Ronaldo was part o the team Portugal and achieved great success and major honor with the national team. We know how well is Ronaldo equipped with his powerful shots is. No doubt he is the threat at every angle of the match. Also, his capacity to lead from the front and his experience will make him the best player that Portugal has. Ronaldo is the master for creating goal-scoring opportunities and goal deliverer. Once again we expect team Portugal, led by Ronaldo to stun the world and the stadiums in Russia.     #2 Hakim Ziyech – Morocco Entering Hakim Ziyech into the Moroccan team makes the chances real for them creating goal scoring opportunities and fetches the goals. They are providing creative attacking talents like Ziyech. Thanks to his performance and skills Ziyech was named the Ajax player of the year. He has a great touch and passing range even if he is not one of the fastest players out there. But his balanced play and the ability of slide passing defenders makes Ziyech own his skills.   #3  Spain – Isco Alarcon   Isco has become one of the most valuable players of and for Spain, showing his attacking skills which fit just right in the Spanish midfield. His eye for goals and dribbling abilities are making him unstoppable and with the vision to always make the perfect pass makes him move effortlessly. Spain is strong having Isco’s explosive turn of pace in the game. The perfect setting for making him the most creative outlet in the middle of the Park is this Cup and the host country Russia.   #4 Iran – Sardar Azmoun Iran has Carlos Queiroz but also the quality of Sardar Azmoun. This will be the fifth time for Iran qualifying for the World Cup. Azmoun’s strong shot along with his control and balance to dribble the defenders has attracted even the attention and likes of Liverpool who has their eyes on him but waiting to see if it’s worth putting him on their billing list. Sardar Azmoun hopefully will provide Iran with the needed European experience in this tricky group alongside with the team players. WORLD CUP RUSSIA 2018 Group B WORLD CUP RUSSIA 2018 Group B
