2022-06-17 15:19:00, Sport CNA

A Brazilian sports TV show has ranked the 32 participating national teams of "Qatar 2022" in four different categories: Favorites, candidates for the trophy, may surprise and, finally, "tourists".

Four teams have been named favorites, including, without question, Brazil. While the "tourists" category contains 14 teams, almost half of the 32 competing in this winter's tournament, including the host country, Qatar. Let's take a look at Sportv's rankings, according to Reddit:

Costa
Rica
Saudi Arabia
Canada
Iran
Morocco
Qatar
Tunisia
South Korea
Australia
USA
Mexico
Ghana
Japan
Cameroon

Yes, it's hard to see any of these teams that could seriously challenge the glory of the World Cup later this year. Interestingly, Saudi Arabia finished over Japan and Australia in qualifying, while Iran finished around South Korea. But both national teams still lose a place in the other category.

Ecuador
Wales
Poland
Denmark Denmark
Serbia
Switzerland
Senegal
Uruguay may surprise

Të gjitha këto kombëtare kanë potencialin të shqetësojnë favoritët e mëdhenj të Botërorit në përballjet e tyre. Senegali, fituesi i këtij viti të Kupës së Kombeve të Afrikës, mund të jetë një kërcënim real. Ashtu si Uellsi, i cili është kualifikuar në të parën Kupë Bote që nga viti 1958.

Kandidatët për trofeun
Kroacia
Portugalia
Holanda
Belgjika
Anglia
Spanja

Forma shqetësuese e fundit e Anglisë nuk i ka kushtuar asaj mungesën e vendit në kategorinë “kandidatët për trofe”. Kombëtaret e tjera janë gjithmonë të rrezikshme në kompeticionet e mëdha, veçanërisht Spanja. Ndërkohë, ne do të zbulojmë nëse Cristiano Ronaldo mund ta frymëzojë Portugalinë për lavdi në atë që ka të ngjarë të jetë paraqitja e tij e fundit në Kupën e Botës.

Favorites
Argentina
Germany
France
Brazil

Argentina, Germany and France rank alongside Brazil as favorites to win this year’s World Cup. France are the reigning world champions after triumphing in Russia four years ago, but do not underestimate Argentina, which is currently in an extraordinary 32-match unbeaten streak and has won two trophies: the Copa America and the Finalissima. ”.

As for Ronaldo, this will be Lionel Messi's last World Cup. The legendary striker is determined to add to his collection the only trophy he has saved so far, before "hanging his shoes on the nail". Will 2022 be his year? Let's wait and see. Recall that the 2022 World Cup starts on November 21st.
