Top World Cup Players: Rodri, Messi, Mbapp￩ & More!

Let's talk about the best players of this World Cup. Let's start at the top with Rodri, the midfielder and captain of Spain, winning the Ballon d'Or. For you, who are the top 5 players after him in the ranking of the World Cup? I would say Messi, I would say Mbappe of course, in terms of the goals. I would also say Bellingham, Bellingham had two amazing performances, two goals against Mexico. And I would say Dembele also had great performances, and that's about it. You know, I don't know about this, I didn't like this award at all. Unai Simone was awarded the best goalkeeper of the World Cup, just because he only conceded once. But I don't think it was really on him. I think that there were so many good goalkeepers. I think Pickford was extraordinary throughout the whole World Cup, saving the team in critical moments. The same Divo Martinez also had a clutch performance in the final. He lost eventually, but he saved Argentina from going 2-0, 3-0 very quickly. I would say even Cape Verde, Bozinha was a spectacular goalkeeper. We said a lot of good things about Cape Verde. But Cape Verde was the only team that put both the finalists in check during the World Cup. So Cape Verde, you should be very proud of yourself, because not only were you the sensation of the tournament, but you were able to hold both finalists to ties, showing that you competed at the highest level. How important is it that we get excited about these smaller teams? Because the next World Cup is rumored to have not 48 like this, but 64 teams for the next World Cup. I'm so excited. I can't wait to see how Cape Verde comes out in the next World Cup. I can't wait to see how Morocco comes out. They've gone so close the past two World Cups, and now part of the World Cup is going to be in Morocco. So I'm very curious to see these smaller teams come up. 2030, we're going to Paraguay, Uruguay and Argentina to celebrate the 100 years of the tournament. And then we fly to Morocco, Portugal and Spain for another jointly hosted tournament. 64 teams. The beauty of it is that we're not going to have this weird third place algorithm decision. We're going back to the top two teams to create 32 in the round of 16 right after the first round. Wow. So much more straightforward. The teams are not going to be speculating if they can advance with two or three ties. Now you're going to have to play on the new stage, otherwise you're going to go home. Cutthroat.
