The Most Anticipated Match Of The 2018 World Cup? It’s Argentina-Iceland
With FIFA set to begin the general sales phase of tickets for the 2018 World Cup in Russia today, two previous phases have resulted in an allocation of 1,303,616 tickets for the 64 matches — knocking two matches entirely off the docket: the final at Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow and June 16’s Group D opener between Argentina and Iceland at Otkritie Arena in Moscow.
The Legendary Panini Company Predicts Mexico’s World Cup Roster
As a little kid, I would feverishly collect Panini World Cup sticker albums every four years. The World Cup rush was even further intensified as everyone at school was collecting the stickers. Of course, all kids specially valued their national team stamps above anything else.
There was nothing a Mexican boy or girl would hold dearest to his or her heart than a Cuauhtemoc Blanco sticker.
Las nuevas camisetas de Francia para la Copa del mundo rompen la tradición para los franceses
Con Antoine Griezmann, Alex Lacazette, Anthony Martial, Olivier Giroud, Dimitri Payet, Ousmane Dembele, Nabil Fekir, Kylian Mbappe, Kevin Gameiro y Karim Benzema, Francia posee 10 delanteros que, si fueran estadounidenses, seguramente pasarían a ser los mejores delanteros de Estados Unidos en la historia.
Esto es un exceso de calidad, especialmente si los juntamos con el excelente juego en el medio campo de jugadores como Paul Pogba, Thomas Lemar, Kingsley Coman y Corentin Tolisso.
Giovani Dos Santos Is Playing Himself Off Mexico’s World Cup Squad
With 102 appearances, 18 goals and as a veteran of two World Cups, history is on Giovani dos Santos’ side. However, his play on the field over the last year and a half makes his inclusion in Mexico’s 2018 World Cup squad, by Juan Carlos Osorio’s own stated standards, a real doubt.
When Dos Santos arrived in MLS in 2016, his initial return of 14 goals, 12 assists and a place in the MLS Best XI seemed to fully justify a Designated Player salary of $5.5 million per year.
"Colors" By Jason Derulo Is The Song That Will Be Stuck In Your Head During The World Cup
Get ready to hate this song. You might not hate it now, but you will hate it in June, when it plays every 10 minutes and you are left with no choice but to pull all of your hair out by the roots.
The song is "Colors" by Jason Derulo, and it is the official anthem of the 2018 World Cup. It is going to nestle in your eardrums in mid-May, make itself comfortable and not leave until July. Sorry, but that's just the way it goes. Hands up for your colors. One hand two hands for your colors. Show your true colors.
Here’s 6 Minutes Of Johan Cruyff Being Absolutely Unplayable At The ’74 World Cup
The greatest footballing nation to have never won the World Cup? It’s the Netherlands. The Oranje have thrice reached the final, losing to hosts West Germany in ’74, hosts Argentina in ’78 and Spain in 2010. The most famous of those defeats came against the Germans, because this was a tournament that had been turned into a pageant for the Dutch vision of Total Football.
Why Colombia Must Not Be Allowed To Win The World Cup
Para muchos, especialmente en América del sur, la Copa del mundo lo es todo. Cada cuatro años los fanáticos del fútbol se reúnen con la esperanza de que su país gane el trofeo. Para algunos (Alemania, Brasil), es algo que se puede lograr. Para otros (Inglaterra, Estados Unidos) es tan solo un sueño. Las esperanzas de Colombia de ganar la Copa del mundo están en el medio de estos, pero de verdad espero que Los Cafeteros no sean los ganadores en Rusia en julio.
Mexico And South Korea Will Stress, But That’s Why Sweden Needs Zlatan At The World Cup
Zlatan Ibrahimovic hasn’t played for Manchester United since getting the halftime hook in a 2-2 draw with Burnley back on December 26, and he wasn’t named in the club’s 18-man squad for Monday's win over Crystal Palace, but that doesn’t mean we should stop talking about the Swedish lion.
United boss Jose Mourinho recently revealed that this’ll almost certainly be Zlatan’s final season in Manchester.

Han aparecido las últimas imágenes de la camiseta de visitante de Adidas de México para la Copa Mundial de la FIFA Rusia 2018, y parece que El Tri representará adecuadamente su apodo cuando use sus camisetas de visitante.
El diseño presenta una llamativa franja horizontal en el pecho que muestra la bandera de México en tres colores verde, blanco y rojo, así como franjas verdes de Adidas en los hombros. La parte posterior del cuello de la camisa, al igual que el diseño de la casa, presenta un mensaje de "soy México".
