HOW A TEAM COULD WIN WC?
When a country’s team play some matches with the other countries and earn good reputation and points (which are really necessary to qualify for Group stages). After the team able to qualify for WC group stages then every group has 4 teams and there are 8 groups total 32 teams. Then every team play 3 matches against the other three teams of the group. Every game has 3 points if a team win they will get 3 points if they draw they will get 1 point and 0 point will be given if they lose the match. After all matches 2 teams from every group will move to the Round of 16. In this Round knockout system start. There are 16 teams left every team has to play just one match if team won it will move forward if team loses then team will be out from the World Cup. After this only 8 teams left in the next round which is named as Quarter finals. In Quarter finals there are four matches only four teams are able to move next. Next round is semi final. Four teams play against each other to qualify for the last and the most important game of the tournament. Two teams those which are winners of semifinals face each other in the final of the World Cup and after a really tough match one team won the match. This is the procedure by which a team could win the World Cup. But it’s not at all easy.
WORLD CUP WINNERS
There are not so much WC winners just some countries which have really good team have this trophy. Brazil is on number one with five titles. On the second place there are two teams Germany and Italy both of them have four titles each. Argentina and Uruguay with two titles each, France, England and Spain each having one title. Last World Cup was held in 2014 and played in Brazil but Brazil was just unlucky in that tournament they played very well and made their way to semi final but they faced Germany in Semi final and Germany won by 7-1 goals against Brazil in their own country and that was really humiliating for them. After that victory Germany faced Argentina (which was also a great team with players like Messi, Di maria) but they play a very tough match against Argentina and were able to score in the last minutes and by that beautiful goal by Mario Gotze they won the World Cup for the fourth time in history and by that victory they are the current holders of World cup trophy.
