The main intrigue of the World Cup: who will lift the trophy?

The FIFA World Cup is in full swing, the group stage is approaching its end, and the main question that’s on the minds of millions of fans right now is: who will take the gold medals?
Predicting the winner this time is no easy task, because the tournament’s expanded format has already delivered plenty of surprises. Still, analysts and bookmakers point to the traditional top favorites:
France: Mbappé and company are showing incredible squad depth. Dominant group stage wins (like the recent 4:1 vs Norway) confirm that Les Bleus came only for gold.
Argentina: Messi and his energized squad are determined to defend the title. Their cohesion and hard-edged mindset make them the main contenders from South America.
Brazil: The five-time world champions are always among the favorites thanks to phenomenal technique and attacking potential.
Spain and England: Young, fast, and incredibly expensive squads from Europe’s top national teams are ready to prove their superiority on the fields of North America.
Don’t write off the “dark horses,” either. In this tournament, anyone can surprise, and the factor of traveling between the USA, Mexico, and Canada adds even more unpredictability. Physical endurance will take center stage.
What do you think? Will we see a classic final between European giants, or will the trophy go to South America? Or maybe we’re about to witness a brand-new champion?
