Yeah here’s my thoughts and rankings of each team in order of the ones I like the most.France…. Let the best team win
Norway- halland and this group are the most likable. I feel like they are the favorite team for most to root for. They have the best fans.
Swiss-Don’t care if they win or lose. kind of neutral there. But they are the underdog so I want them to win. Would love to see them slay the giant tonight. Argentina have practically been asking for someone to beat them.
England- I really like some of their players from following them over the years. But their fans will be the most obnoxious if they win. The euro 2020
Final was a riot. Can’t imagine what will happen if they win this. As much as they want to bring it home, there’s probably a silent segment of the public there that hopes they lose to keep the status quo order in tact there.
France-incredible players all playing on the absolute best teams in the world. I love watching them. Clear favorites, probably facing their toughest challenge vs. Spain. Someone I know in Arlington said the final will be in Dallas stadium after all. (They were salty that New York got the final).
Spain-maybe the dark horse of this bunch only because of France and Messi getting all of the attention. They have only surrendered 1 goal in the WC. Not sure if I’ve ever seen that before.
Argentina-idk why but I went from really liking them when I was younger, to just being tired of them now. Wish they’d go back to what they were when they lived in Brazil’s shadow.
