Men's Football FIFA World Cup 2022

My very personal predictions: 

 

 

Europe 

 

Path A: Ukraine. Austria is garbage, Scotland is vastly overrated with their average premier league players, Wales is very limited and who knows if Bale will even play. Ukraine on their day play really good football and also are surprisingly very good visitors.  

  

Path B: Doubt Russia or Poland will qualify (they play poorly). Sweden/Czech is a 51/49 in my view. I'm backing the swedes since they play at home.  

  

Path C: Italy and Portugal will win their semis easily. Hosting the final is a huge factor, so I'm betting Portugal despite the coach.

That being said... I want Italy to win SO BAD just so there won't be the slightest chance of Ronaldo winning a WC before retiring.

 

 

Intercontinental: 

 

AFC-CONMEBOL: Unless it's Japan that gets involved the Conmebol team will beat whoever.  

 

CONCACAF-OFC: If it's Panama I think New Zealand has a solid chance. Any other opponent (MEX, USA, CAN) and they lose.

Would not write Jamaica out yet, they have good new english players, but they have to make too much ground after their slow start.

Fortunately we won't be in that playoff match :p but that was bad luck for AFC teams

 

but I think Japan and Australia have enough experience against non-Asian teams. even though everything is possible in one match. it's not even a sure thing that Australia/Japan can beat the 3rd placed team from the other group.

Avoiding CONMEBOL is huge for Canada's chances, obviously I'm hoping we finish in the top 3 to avoid it altogether, but it's nice to have a viable back-up plan.

 

I'm very sad one of Italy or Portugal will miss the World Cup.

It's funny see you and @intoronto worried about Canada chances, I am quite confident that Canada will end the competition on first place :lol:

I feel very confident Canada will finish in the top 4, they would have to lose 5/6 games for them to fail, the issue is top 3. We've got Mexico out of the way, but losing to Central American teams is sort of our jam. For example, Honduras has no chance at qualifying, but they can just as easily beat us and deny us three valuable points.

    • Today is a day without Italians in the leads positions. I`m worried that they are not trying to revive this our sprint. There is only one Bosa and he is old. Pergher is young but she is also only one. It is a pity. After the Olympics they will probably 100% give up on the entire sprint. Our medal bag in Cortina will depend 90% on Ghiotto, just like it did on Fabris in Turin 2006. If Ghiotto will be in goodshape, he can even win 2 individual golds + a team medal. If not, it will be a flop. Apart from him, only Lollobrigida can compete in the mass start and possibly Giovannini in the men's mass start.
    • Yup, actually they have just some juniors pairs in the dance event 
    • In bed with the flu and few hours of sleep, but at least the insomnia will let me watch the first World Cup stage
    • The news then is that she has not yet been arrested? I suppose Camila when she returns to Italy will have a very unwelcome visit from the Guardia di Finanza.

    • Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.
