The 2018 FIFA World Cup will be the 21st FIFA World Cup, a quadrennial international football tournament contested by the men's national teams of the member associations of FIFA. It is scheduled to take place in Russia from 14 June to 15 July 2018, after the country was awarded the hosting rights on 2 December 2010. This will be the first World Cup held in Europe since 2006; all but one of the stadium venues are in European Russia, west of the Ural Mountains to keep travel time manageable.
The WC definitely needed that end-to-end game last night.The previous games have been of somewhat poor quality,too many teams perhaps ?
Isco,Costa and of course Ronaldo were in top form last night.Good to see the big names stars actually perform so early in the Tournament.Bodes well,I hope.
