The 2022 World Cup began with some surprises. Saudi Arabia beat Argentina in one of the biggest upsets in tournament history. Teams like Belgium and Germany failed to make the knockout rounds.
But there aren’t many surprises among the teams remaining in the tournament. Of the eight teams still in contention for the World Cup, seven are ranked in the top 12 of the FIFA rankings. Only Morocco, at No. 22, is outside the top 20. And the Moroccans have been one of the best teams in the tournament.
There are six teams remaining that can realistically claim they have a good chance to win the World Cup and another, Croatia, made it to the final in 2018. Here’s how we view the teams heading into the final three rounds of the tournament.Putting Morocco at No. 8 is not a slight — it’s a sign of the depth of this quarterfinal field. Morocco features international stars like Hakim Ziyech and Achraf Hakimi and has allowed just one goal over four games.
