He was hunted down mercilessly by the Swiss, drawing 10 of Brazil's 19 fouls, as many as some entire teams. Neymar also lacked the zip which made him the world's most expensive footballer when French heavyweights Paris St Germain signed him from Spanish giants FC Barcelona last August. There was an injury scare after he limped out of Tuesday's training session with a sore ankle but to his team's relief the forward is expected to be fit for what could be Brazil's fourth World Cup match without a win.

The more a country and its society give liberty to its people to make choices for their lives, the more likely it is to be a World Cup winner FIFA World Cup 2018 :   More than a seventh of humanity watched the 2014 final, where   Germany   became the champions with a lone goal in the extra time. Unarguably, this makes the 2018 World Cup the most to-be-watched sport tournament, and a question that becomes central to discussion in the office, over tea or lunch, and at parties, is this: Who will win this time?   Juxtaposing the general development and economic progress of a country with its perceived chances of winning reveals that the probable semi-finalist teams would be the countries with better social and economic indicators. The world’s top betting players such as Ladbrokes, WilliamHill and 888sport have almost unanimously put Germany, Brazil, France,   Spain   and Argentina   as top five, while Tunisia, Iran, Panama, South   Korea   and   Saudi Arabia   as the bottom five

The Saudi Arabians got to know that first-hand at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow with the Russians pumping in five goals, mercilessly. The high-scoring match certainly lived up to its billing, which, despite being the inaugural match of FIFA World Cup 2018, was between two teams who are least expected to go above the group stage.

Watching from the stands, Russian President Vladimir   Putin shook hands with

Since drawing of teams in December, Argentina's defensive problems have risen, Portugal and France have struggled to find fit defenders, Brazil has lost Dani Alves, and Spain has let go of its manager FIFA World Cup 2018 : If there was a sense that the build-up to the 2018 Fifa World Cup was a bit dull, it was punctured on Wednesday when Spain decided to sack its manager Julen Lopetegui   two days before the team plays its opening match against Portugal.
