KNOWING THE SELECTIONS OF THE FIFA WORLD CUP RUSSIA 2018 - GROUP - A

Greetings to members of the wonderful Steemit community. As of June 14, 32 teams will participate in the 2018 World Cup of Soccer Russia, these teams will compete to be the world champion in the final that will be played on July 15. I will make a tour of the 8 groups of this competition, giving you some data of these teams.

Beginning this tour of the group A of the soccer world cup we find the host Russia. Directed by the former Russian footballer Stanislav Cherchésov, as host Russia did not play a preliminary phase they only played friendly matches of preparation, their last 3 matches were against France where they lost 3 to 1, against Austria where they were defeated 1 by 0 and the last game was against Turkey where they drew 1 for 1.

His best result in world cups was a fourth place in 1966 at the time they participated as the Soviet Union, as Russia have participated in 3 World Cups and did not pass the group stage. In this cup they are not favorites, but the advantage of being local can help them to pass the group phase.

sons of the desert thus nickname the Saudi Arabian team. They are run by the Argentine coach Juan Antonio Pizzi since 2017, they qualified as second in the previous phase, in their last 3 preparation matches they beat Greece and then lost to Italy and Peru.

His best position in world cups was the 12th place in the 1994 World Cup where they managed to pass the group stage. This is his sixth participation in the World Cup and his last participation was in the World Cup in Germany in 2006 where they only achieved a draw and were eliminated in the group stage. In this world cup you will have a very difficult path since you are in the host group and it is not one of the favorite teams to go to the next round.

The pharaohs, they say to the national team of Egypt. Directed by Argentine coach Héctor Cúper, they qualified for the World Cup after 28 years without participating, defeating the Congo in an exciting game with a penalty at the end of the game. In their last 3 matches of preparation they tied with Kuwait and Colombia, while in their last game they were defeated against Belgium 3 for 0.

This will be their third World Cup, they participated in 1934 and in 1990, they have never managed to advance from the group stage. In this World Cup there is a great expectation with this selection as they have a good team and with one of the soccer figures currently Mohamed Salah the Liverpool player of English football, I think that between the Egyptians and the Russians will be the second classified of this group.

The Charrúas well known Uruguayan football team, Are directed for more than a decade by coach Óscar Washington Tabárez, ranked second in the long elimination of Conmebol with 31 points, for the first time classified directly with this system of all against all. in the last 3 preparation matches they have 3 wins against their counterparts in the Czech Republic, Wales and Uzbekistan.

This team managed to win this tournament twice, in the 1930s and 1950s. In the last World Cup in Brazil in 2014, they were knocked out in the round of 16 by losing to the Colombian national team. He is the favorite to win this group, has one of the best pairs of attackers of the tournament and all his players are recognized worldwide. If this team passes the first round without difficulties I think it will be one of the selections that will go far in this tournament.
