The 2018 FIFA World Cup is warming up every day. The hosts greeted us with a 5-0 win against Saudi Arabia, but nothing else is going as planned. Argentina faced Iceland, Brazil were only 1-1 behind Switzerland and Germany lost to Mexico. It turns out to be the crazy confrontation we were waiting for. Today, as we wait for England, Belgium and Senegal to come out on the field in the last two groups, let's see who has caught our attention so far.
5. Aleksandar Kolarov - Serbia
Serbia beat Costa Rica 1-0 thanks to a superb free kick from captain Aleksandar Kolarov. It was a perfect day for the Eastern European nation because they know that Brazil and Switzerland will not walk in the park. It worked for them too because the other two attracted 1-1. The strike is there with the best of the tournament so far.
4. Hirving Lozano - Mexico
The champions defending the World Cup in Germany were surprised by Mexico in their first game Sunday. The Central Americans threatened the Europeans in the first minute but could not take advantage. However, the story changed in the 35th minute when Javier Hernández gave Hirving Lozano a perfect pass to finish. The second half was the German attack, but they could not find the way. Now they have joined France (2002), Italy (2010) and Spain (2014) in the list of defending champions who lost their first matches in the next tournament.
3. Cheryshev and Golovin - Russia
Russia opened the 2018 World Cup with a convincing 5-0 win over Saudi Arabia on Thursday (June 14th) at Iconic Luzhniki Stadium. It was a dream start for the host country, especially after a bad set of results in all friendly matches before the tournament. Dennis Cheryshev scored twice, but the Man of the Match crown went to Aleksandr Golovin, who helped with two goals and scored the fifth ....
2. Diego Costa - Spain
Spain has suffered from the retirement of their best striker David Silva and Raul. Fernando Torres has not been in shape for a few years, making it difficult to choose for the national team. Alvaro Morata has shown he is capable of leading the line but has an average season with Chelsea.This means that Celta Vigo ahead of Iago Aspas and Atlético de Madrid striker Diego Costa is the only choice ahead. History has changed completely at this moment because La Roja fans no longer have to worry. Costaova's perfect double match against Portugal means that they can rely on them to achieve their goals, even if the team does not play well.
1. Cristiano Ronaldo - Portugal
The most important topic of the 2018 FIFA World Cup debate at this time is Cristiano Ronaldo's hat-trick against Spain. A player five times a year finally announced his arrival at the biggest football scene of all. The Portuguese advanced to get a penalty when Nacho crashed early in the game. But De Gea then allowed him to reach the last two minutes before the break after a rare mistake.The Spaniards worked when they left after a break. Diego Costa scored his second and Nacho Cree was too hot for Patricia. However, CR7 was in hat-trick and that's enough motivation. Gerger Piqué hit the court ball. He prepared it as usual and split it in the top corner away from the reach of the goalkeeper. No matter what happened here, you've already won hearts and minds in Russia.
