The biggest extravaganza in the world of sports is almost upon us. After years of qualifying rounds, an infinite number of team shuffles, easy wins, last-minute thrillers, and numerous upsets, we are finally ready to witness 32 teams battling it out for the most coveted trophy in world football, the World Cup.

All these 32 teams will be giving their all to win this cup in Russia. While some teams have quite an experienced and aged side, some teams brought a very young and talented side and some teams just have the right mixture of both. All in all, it will be jam-packed, thrilling, nail-biting 32 days and 64 matches of football available on display across 12 stadiums in 11 cities of Russia.

I would like to call them “bug teams” who could provide major upsets in the tournament. I’ll talk about these “bug teams” in four parts.
