World Cup Football

I just wanted to share my love for the sport of football, not American football (NFL), even though I am a fan of that game as well...shout out to my team, Baltimore Ravens, but the real football that you actual kick with your feet. In America, it is called Soccer, but everywhere else in the world, it is called football. For the first time in the history of the sport, the world cup will be played in December. Reason being, is that Qatar will host the tournament, and to avoid player dying, or potentially hurting themselves from heat exhaustion, the football governing body (FIFA) opt to have the competition in one of the cooler months of the year.

Team USA did not qualify for the previous competition which was held in Russia of 2018, but they did qualify for this upcoming one, Qatar 2022. I am happy for them and also anxious to see how well they will do on the world stage. They do have a good, young, and talented crop of players this year, so I think they will do well.

Their are quite a few favorites: Belgium, Germany, Spain, Brazil, and Argentina. However, England, Holland, and Portugal also stand a good outside chance. My number one choice to win though is Brazil.
