Who is your “dark horse” team to have a successful run in the World Cup finals coming up soon? Why do you favour them? - It must be a team outside the top 20 in the latest FIFA rankings. Mine is Ecuador, they don’t score many goals but they don’t concede many either. They were second in the South American qualifiers competition, ahead of Brazil, and have been in good form since.
Ecuador was unconvincing with a full squad against 10 Dutch players for over 80 minutes. I do not consider either team as a serious contender to lift the trophy. It is my firm belief that dark horses are as prevalent as unicorns this year. Provided that injuries and tropical weather conditions do not exert undue influence on results: the usual suspects will likely dominate this competition.
For obvious reasons I would be delighted if a sudden twist of fate would prove me wrong. But I fear that equality of arms does not even exist on paper on this occasion.

Your team is rated as 7th best though, and I don’t think Ecuador are ever particularly convincing 😀😀. I only think they might get a bit further than the group stage the way they play, boring as it may be. It’s only a bit of fun. I don’t think they have a chance of winning, but aren’t you very confident about the Dutch team? Agreed, if one of the favourites doesn’t win I will be surprised too. Japan have been quite impressive in their friendlies and might win a few knockout games but they are in the top 20 teams.

Ecuador vs Ivory coast could be decisive match. But I think Ivory coast will proceed alongside Germany. Speaking about my national team, I'm more worried about Ghana (my dark horse) than about England
Sorrryyy that i disturb in this forum bc i know almost nothing of football tbh. BUTTT i wanted to tell that when it is really the world cup we normally watch together with our class or at least who wants it. But i dunno if we also do it this time bc some matches are in the middle of the night. But if they are for example in the evening we watch and EVERYBODYYY must wear at least one thing that is orange and bring food or drink and so everybody can share it all. 🙂 But u also get super deaf from the others but it is also nice bc everybody is just supporting orange!!! 😊🧡🧡
