I need you guys to understand thereโs no such thing as a Dark Horse in the world cup in terms of going to win the entire thing.
A smaller nation can go far, sure.
But thereโs a reason thereโs only been 8 World Champions ever.
Argentinian influencer Valen Scarsini set out to find the least known footballer playing at the
World Cup.
It turned out to be New Zealand defender, Tim Payne, who had 4,000 followers on IG.
Valen then encouraged all of his fans to follow. The rest is history.
The worst thing about the new format of the World Cup is the group stages being basically useless.
The only nations that will go home are the ones who shouldnโt be here in the first place. Eight out of twelve third place teams advance ๐ญ
We are officially in World Cup month. Please leave your xG charts, pressing percentages, and defensive metrics in the club season. International tournament football is strictly decided by pure vibes, individual brilliance, tactical survival, and a random goalkeeper turning into prime Lev Yashin for two weeks. Enjoy the entertainment and put the spreadsheets away.
If you wanted deeper confirmation that Argentina will win the 2026 World Cup
theyโll be using their home jersey for the first two games, then the away jersey in their third match. Exactly how they did in 2022 ๐โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ
