A typical World Cup team
Yassine Bounou is the best goalkeeper in the World Cup, not Emiliano Martinez. For the rest, this is the typical squad for the 2022 World Cup, with Argentines, French, Croatians, Moroccans and even Brazilians.
Doorman
Yassine Bounou (Morocco)
Rio doppelganger Theft of money he didn’t get far from the heist of the century, but Rosario came to disrupt his plans.
Defenders
Achraf Hakim (Morocco)
His feet on fire allow him to beat opposing attackers and cut in line crosses. The Blacksmith’s Son Doctor.
Josko Guardiol (Croatia)
Fortunately, he took off his mask after each match to reveal that he was not a robot programmed to destroy every scoring opportunity, but a human being. Even if Messi proves it in the semi-final.
Nicolas Otamendi (Argentina)
A diligent and impatient former student, he knew how to erase all his shortcomings to become one of the best in the class. Even when he caused a penalty in the final of the World Cup, he became the lover of the referee who didn’t give him a card.
Dayot Upamecano (France)
After that, my marsupial will no longer say “Houba Huba” But “Upa Upa” As a tribute to the Mondial de titan released by Dayot. With Deschamps playing left-back Camavinga and right-back Disasi, there’s no reason not to try Upamecano on the left.
Midfielders
Antoine Griezmann (France)
We don’t judge a player in a match, otherwise Gonzalo Ramos would have started the attack. So Grizou XXL is not a failed final that will make you forget the World Cup.
Sofyan Amrabat (Morocco)
In front of his television, Vincenzo Italiano felt very foolish for replacing Amrabat for Fiorentina last season.
Luka Modric (Croatia)
The power is with him. Luke Skywalker. You never know if the police are still after your son.
Enzo Fernandez (Argentina)So Benfica fans will enjoy their treat for four months. To think Scaloni benched him at the start of the World Cup…
Strikers
Lionel Messi (Argentina)
Money lovers have won a new argument in the GOAT debate. But they lost one more with the number of penalties scored. At least Messi can now boast about his failure in training. Finally, except when Szczesny was against.
Kylian Mbappe (France)
He proved that you should always wait until the end of the match to judge a player’s performance. Although not everyone can draw and finish with a hat-trick in 75 minutes.
On the bench
Walid Regragui (Morocco)
Even Vahid Halilhodzić believes it was not a bad idea to finally part with Walid Regraqi in order to put him in charge of Morocco ahead of the World Cup.
Emiliano Martinez (Argentina)
“Randal Kolo Muani scored, but Martinez made the save“We will say after 40 years.
Romain Saiss (Morocco)
His body was eventually released to return to that of Franz Beckenbauer.
Jude Bellingham (England)
Like Kylian Mbappe, Jude Bellingham walked in the World Cup at the age of 19. Only Kyks had brought him the Cup.
Azzedine Ounahi (Morocco)
He can ask Stéphane Plaza to put his residence in Angers up for sale: he will not return there.
Bruno Fernandes (Portugal)
That’s why he was waiting for the biggest tournament to show his true colors with Portugal. I can’t wait for 2026 to see him at a good level again in selection.
Julian Alvarez (Argentina)
That’s why Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez have long-term contracts in Manchester City. Bravo for 5 Champions Leagues in 5 years.
Thiago Silva (Brazil)
His ID is formal: he is 9 years older than Raphael Varane. But when you look at his two games, you might think otherwise.
Salem Al-Dawsari (Saudi Arabia)
The only man who can beat Argentina in this World Cup.
Ritsu Doan (Japan)
Two goals off the bench to help Japan beat Spain and Germany, you won’t find a better super single at this World Cup. Moreover, Japan was defeated twice when it was founded.
