Things You Should Know About The World Cup

Q: Which teams have more chance of winning?

A: Spain, which won the European Championship two years ago, is ranked No. 1 in the world and has one of the planet’s best rosters. Spain rarely plays well in the World Cup and has never won it.

Brazil owns a record five titles and tends to perform well in the tournament. The Brazilians also have a very good team and are also one of the favorites

The Netherlands, Portugal, Argentina, Germany and defending champion Italy could be front-runners, and England maybe too. Argentina is coached by its greatest player, Diego Maradona, who has to prove that he is as good coaching than playing.

Q: What is the format?

A: There are eight groups of four teams. Those teams play first round, and matches can end in draws. The top two teams in each group advance to the final 16. Every game after the first round is a knockout match and will go to a 30-minute overtime if tied. If still tied after OT, a penalty kick shootout is held
