Norway for the World Cup?

[Visiting owl]

no European country have won it when played outside of Europe … that’s correct isn’t it?

Germany won it in Brazil a few years back

 

[Nil desperandum]

No chance, USA might surprise and get far, I think one of Senegal and Morocco may get to the final but fancy Spain or Argentina to be the winners.

Argentina have absolutely no chance

Used to be. Spain and Germany have done it since.

Argentina have absolutely no chance

I wouldn't say they have no chance but only one team (Brazil in 1962) have ever retained the trophy.

I think at least one of Spain and France will reach the final.

Messi, Otamendi, Di Celso and Tagliafico ffs. Be shameful to the rest if they came anywhere near.

Don't take her to a Wednesday match, especially not on the kop, she had the right face on.

Thankfully I turned it around when I treated her to a Wetherspoons Eggs Benedict.

She had a face on coz I bombed her mate

Portugal don't have the squad depth needed, and Ronaldo will harm them more than he helps.

I don’t know. I think he’s got one last tournament in him.

Good chance of a France v Spain semi-final iirc.

That was at 7.38 in the morning to be fair

It's 23 degrees now which isn't exactly tropical compared to 32 odd degrees in Tampa, Florida.

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

Spain will win it IMO, they’ll beat France in the final. Brazil & Argentina knocked out in the semis.

 

[seahamstar]

Brazil or Argentina

Messi, Otamendi, Di Celso and Tagliafico ffs. Be shameful to the rest if they came anywhere near.

In fairness to him, Lo Celso is only 30. He's just never been all that good.

Northern European teams have won the world cup 7 times. None have won it in the summer time in the Northern hemisphere in a predominantly hot country apart from France in Italy which is their neighbour so not dismilar.

Norway has participated in the qualification for 18 FIFA World Cup tournaments and have appeared in the main tournament four times, in 1938, 1994, 1998, and 2026. Their best result was Round of 16 in 1998.

Statistics go out of the window when you consider England have only won it once.

I'm not being patriotic or biased but really, once in nearly 100 years

 

[Redandwhitedust]

I got them at 50/1 a while ago.

It's happening.

Hope so. Theyre my sweepstake team
