The Europeans have started by far the strongest in this tournament so far out of the confederations.
So far
Uefa teams have won 9, drawn 4 and lost 1 (those hopeless Germans)
Conmebol have won 1, lost 1 and drawn 2
Concacaf have won 1 and lost 2
Asia have won 1 and lost 2
Oceania have lost their only game
And
Africa have lost all 4 games so far.
I think that's stronger than usual for uefa and the African teams seem weaker than in the past.
I think a European team will definitely win it.
I don’t think the Brazilians or Argentines will make the semis based on what I’ve seen.
Of course this could be an epic failure on my part predicting this 😂
You have to think there's a number of strong European countries who didn't make it. When the us world cup cones around there's only going to be another 3 European teams and double Asians I think there could start to be some massive mismatches.
I think Argentina and Brazil may struggle to get out of their group which is a shame because you want there to be some representation from other continents

Look at some of the countries who haven't made it; Italy, Holland, Wales, Ireland, Austria, Ukraine, Slovakia and Bosnia are all better than around 8/9 of the sides in the World Cup, Northern Ireland and Scotland could also stake a claim to be better than many
