Whether you’re a World Cup lover or a fan of the sport in general, you’ve probably found yourself looking for a guide to the groups that will be playing in the tournament. This article will tell you everything you need to know about the World Cup 2022, including the countries that are in each group, how to watch the games and how to predict which group will win the trophy.
Senegal
Despite only having played in the World Cup twice before, Senegal has plenty of talent to make a strong run at the next competition. Their squad has plenty of star names, as well as a few players who may be unfamiliar to English fans. In fact, several Senegalese players are competing in the top European leagues.
There is one key player who is missing from Senegal’s World Cup squad. Bouna Sarr is one of the biggest names in West Africa but has been injured in the lead-up to the tournament. In his place will be Youssef Sabaly, who is a fine replacement.
Senegal will play their first match against the Netherlands. That game is a must-win. If they do, they will be a strong favourite to advance. They also have the weapons to cause England problems in the knock-out stages. They also have the best goalkeeper in the world, Edouard Mendy.
Senegal is a formidable side and is regarded as the favorite to make the final. They have a strong backline led by Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly. They also have a number of talented players who play in the top European leagues. They have been coached by Aliou Cisse, who managed in Japan and South Korea in 2002. He has established a good rapport with the Senegalese players.
One of the most popular players in Senegal is Sadio Mane, who is a world-class striker who is currently playing for Bayern Munich. He is also Senegal’s all-time leading scorer with 34 goals in 93 appearances. He is also a great lynchpin to the Senegal Afcon-winning team. Despite his success, Mane is a humble player who prefers to lead by example.
Germany
Despite being placed in a tricky group, Germany is looking to lift their fifth World Cup trophy. This is a team with plenty of world-class options. Here is a guide to each group for Germany in 2022.
There are some key areas where Germany is lacking. They need a few players at their best to win the 2022 World Cup. Here are some of the players who can help them.
Thilo Kehrer is a versatile defender. He has started five games on the right and four on the left. He is a very good passer of the ball. He is also a great player. He will be a valuable asset in tournament football.
Ilkay Gundogan is a high-quality midfielder. He is a master of passing and creating space for teammates. He can be a real threat in attack. He has also started three games in the center.
Joshua Kimmich is a midfielder who can create breakthrough passes. He is also a master of puppeteering. He is the most likely player to mess up in the World Cup.
Mario Gotze has returned to the German fold after a five-year absence. He has played a key role in the German side’s success in recent years. He scored Germany’s goal in the 2014 World Cup final. He is also a promising young talent.
Serge Gnabry is preparing for his World Cup debut. He has started two of Germany’s last 10 matches. He is 27 years old. He is a player who can play wide or drop deep.
There are several players who can score goals for Germany. However, there are other teams that have scored more.
Costa Rica
Despite failing to make the quarterfinals in Russia in 2018, Costa Rica is going to Qatar in 2022. They will face a tough group including four-time champions Germany and Asian powerhouse Japan. Despite the group’s star power, Costa Rica will need to rely on experience to survive.
Costa Rica has only missed one World Cup since the turn of the twentieth century. The nation finished fourth in CONCACAF qualifying and beat the United States, Canada, Uruguay, and Italy in the process. The team is also on the best qualification streak in Costa Rican history. They have won six games and drew one.
The Golden Generation is well represented by veteran Celso Borges, a former player of Paulo Wanchope’s fame. Borges is a stalwart in Los Ticos’ midfield and has earned 154 caps. He is tied for fifth on Costa Rica’s all-time appearances list. He will be making his third World Cup appearance.
In the build-up to the tournament, the team has not been a vocal advocate for migrant workers’ rights. It has also not mentioned the human rights symbol, the Kanji.
Despite being one of the least-scoring teams in the group, Costa Rica is no stranger to great performance. They have won six of their last seven games and a 2-1 win over Uzbekistan helped their morale. The squad is stacked with experience and grittiness, two qualities Costa Rica have to rely on.
There are also several young talents in the squad, including 22-year-old striker Anthony Contreras. The Herediano native is starting to make an impression in his home country. He has also impressed in World Cup qualifying.
The Costa Rican Football Association (CFTC) has announced a 26-man squad for the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022. Three Major League Soccer players made the list: Ronald Matarrita, Bryan Oviedo and Daniel Chacon.
Saudi Arabia
Despite a lack of major success on the world stage, Saudi Arabia is considered one of the best national teams in Asia. Saudi Arabia will make their sixth appearance at the World Cup and face a tough group with Argentina, Mexico, and Poland. In order to win a World Cup, Saudi Arabia must advance from the group stage. In their previous four appearances at the World Cup, Saudi Arabia have fallen short of the group stage.
Saudi Arabia will be managed by veteran French coach Herve Renard. He previously coached Ivory Coast and Morocco. His team will be joined by Argentina, Mexico, and Poland in Group C. In a group with a heavy World Cup pedigree, Saudi Arabia is unlikely to progress beyond the group stage.
Saudi Arabia made their World Cup debut at the USA 1994 tournament. They finished fifth, and are considered one of the strongest national teams in Asia. They will be a tough test to advance from the group stage at the 2022 tournament in Qatar.
The squad features a number of players who are based in Saudi Arabia. The side is coached by Herve Renard, a French veteran who has worked with Ivory Coast, Morocco, and Zambia. His team finished ahead of Australia in Asian qualifying. During the warmup games, Renard switched from a 4-2-3-1 formation to a 4-3-3, which was a change from his usual 4-1-4-1 formation. Despite the change in formation, Saudi Arabia’s players sparked controversy for being too conservative in front of the goal.
Saudi Arabia’s attack has been led by striker Sami al-Jaber. He scored three goals in the World Cup. He also scored a penalty against Egypt at Russia in 2018. Al-Jaber has also played at the USA, France, and German World Cups.
Canada
Despite the fact that Canada has not qualified for the World Cup in 36 years, there are some signs that the time is right for a return. Canada has a promising group of young players. The coach, John Herdman, has done a great job of building team spirit.
There is a wealth of attacking talent in this Canadian lineup. The star is Alphonso Davies. His speed and technique are world-class. As a left winger, he can also play left-back when needed. His ability to set up a teammate is as good as his goal-scoring.
The other star is Jonathan David, a dynamo from Lille. He has scored more than a third of Canada’s goals this season. He also has a great touch in the final third.
The Canadian team is also loaded with talent, including a newcomer in Stephen Eustaquio. He has long-range passing skills that should help Canada switch play in possession. He played for Brighton on loan in 2016/17.
The Canadian backline isn’t world-class. It hasn’t faced players like Kevin De Bruyne or Lukas Lukaku. However, it has played with teams like Belgium, who are in the same group.
The team has also made significant progress in international football over the last year. It has reached the Gold Cup semi-finals, won The Ocho, and qualified for the Concacaf qualifying tournament. It will need to qualify from the group stage to make it to the knockout stages.
Canada has been grouped in Group F with Belgium and Croatia. Canada plays Belgium in the opening game on May 5 and Croatia on June 2. The second match will take place on Wednesday, July 4 at 1:45 p.m.
