At the 2018 World Cup, Croatia surprisingly reached the final, losing 4–2 to France there. This time reaching the finals will not be a surprise, but an absolute feeling. After the World Cup, important players such as Ivan Rakitic and Mario Mandzukic resigned. Top star and world footballer 2018 Luka Modric is now 37 years old. Nevertheless, the Croatians are serious competitors, with RB Leipzig’s Josko Guradiol also running a defensive gem for the national team. The first goal is to advance in the group.

Canada will be allowed to participate in the World Cup for the second time in 2022. Little or nothing came together in 1986: Canada were eliminated after the preliminary round and did not score a single point at the time. The team around Bayern’s star player Alfonso Davies is definitely looking to improve this record. Along with stormtroopers Jonathan David (Lille), the two youngsters and his team want to cause a surprise and advance to the Round of 16.
