2010 should’ve been Paraguay They made it all the way to the quarterfinals

2006 could also be viewed as Portugal's peak performance

Quite funny how Argentina in 1998 was in a group full of debutants

I'm glad you put Turkey over South Korea in 2002 because even though South Korea was ranked 41st in men's rankings that time, they didn't even deserved to get where they are at all after they robbed Italy.

1994- Romania & Bulgaria. Sweden reached the semis. Very tricky to choose 1998- Croatia. Some of their players had previously played for Yugoslavia, but what an achievement 2002- Turkey. South Korea had a bit of help from officials. Senegal reached the quarters, but miss out despite defeating France 2006- Ukraine. A world cup where the big boys were at their very best- Spain and Netherlands went out in the last 16 because they played France & Portugal 2010- Uruguay ahead of Paraguay & Ghana. New Zealand deserve a shout for never losing and only one top division player with Ryan Nelsen. Uruguay reached the semis, but they were not popular for what Suarez did. This is the hardest by a mile 2014- Costa Rica. What a story 2018- Russia. Croatia reached the final, but their line-up was stacked. Belgium also had a superstar team 2022- Australia. Morocco had a lot of good players, whilst no-one even thought Australia score a point, let alone beat Tunisia and Denmark

My favourite from all these is Morroco.

Crazy how every time Croatia made it past the group stage they always finished top 3 and France always placed top 2 with them being right behind them

2010 should have been Ghana. They also made it to the quarterfinals.

Turkey's 2002 campaign is a statistical improbability. What odds in the current world cup format that a team can play 7 matches without any of them being against another European team?

1994 romania Had a Crazy Team with Hagi, dimitrescu, pupescu, petrecu and raducioiu. Game against Columbia where Hagi Scores that Crazy goal and against Argentina probably the best game in their history. Knocking out the 2nd from the last wc and Hagi and dimitrescu were like a power of nature in that game. Quarters against Sweden was just unlucky for them they were 2-1 for Romania und Sweden got also a red card then Sweden scored a goal in the 116 minute to make it 2-2. Sweden won the penalty shootout its unlucky but that team had potential to be world champion many big players, of course not many know them but back in the day Romanian league was top 10.

Great video, thank you!

stoichkov has to be the one of the most underrated player

Hey manin te conheço do Brasil! E ótimo inglês esse seu cara, sucesso

2006 2010 Ghana 2014 Algeria and Costa Rica 2018 Croatia 2022 Morocco

In 2010 Blackburn Rovers we're still in the Premier League. Making Ryan Nelson New Zealand's only first division player. When Blackburn were relegated to the Championship, Nelson then moved onto Spurs I think 🤔

New upload🎉

W Morocco🇲🇦✨

Ruiz and Ziyech both played for my favourite team - the eternal Dutch underdog.

Can you do older world cups underdogs?

Next you can do for euro

2006 WC Underdog: Portugal 4th Place.

you forgot to mention romania and sweden 1994 paraguay 2010 belgium 2018 portugal 2006

Well Bulgaria wasnt exactly an underdog. They had world class and renowned player like kostadinov, stoichkov and Balakov. They qualified by winning twice against France, the second with that legendary last minute goal. So Bulgaria was a rather feared team at that time

Cameroon 🇨🇲

Dude. You just game me ptsd with the Bulgaria win over Mexico. I’m in the us and saw that game live. I’m Mexican American and it was a very tough loss in penalties. CAMPOS!!!!

I remember watching Bulgaria play Italy at giants stadium that place was packed mostly Italian fans but you’d see some Bulgarian groups all over.But that match was really good

Morocco 🇲🇦 22 Turkey 🇹🇷- 2002 Bulgaria 🇧🇬- Paraguay 🇵🇾 2010 Croatia 🇭🇷 -2018,22 Ukraine 🇺🇦

good video but it will been better to start with world cup 1990 and Cameroon

fun fact: the fastest goal in world cup's history was scored by an turkish player

I think you forget 2014 Algeria national team I mean they Lost to the Champions of that cup in the round of 16 + with both goals being in the extra time

1990 - Cameroon 🇨🇲

tecnnicaly part of the 98 Croatia team was the same team that played in the 1990 WC and basically the same team that got kicked out of the 92 EUROS

Turkey over South Korea for 2002 underdogs is still a fair decision. South Korea should not be in the semifinal because they cheated against Italy and Spain. Even better, either of Italy or Spain should have made through the Final against Brazil, given their squad depths of the team at the time. Uruguay shouldn't be in the semifinal of 2010 because, well, they only prevailed thanks to Luis Suarez' handball against Ghana. Ghana should really deserved 4th place, as did the Paraguay, who went all the way to the quarterfinal, narrowly losing to the champions Spain. Last, but not least, you can also include Russia in 2018, who went all the way to the quarter final. They knocked 2010 champions Spain on penalties in the Round of 16. They should really deserved to face England in the semifinal with even better performance vs Croatia in the quarter final.

I can never take that 1998 Romania team seriously for one reason. They all dyed their hair blonde. It was like watching 11 clones of Eminem running amok on the pitch.

i love the way how u speak 🫣

didnt know u had an english channel

Previous WC Underdogs: 1930: United States, 3rd place; the team was composed of non-professional Irish and Italian immigrants. 1934: Spain, 5th place; they eliminated Brazil and managed to put Italy in a bad situation (despite losing to a rigged rematch). 1938: Cuba, 7th place; they managed to eliminate (via a rematch) Rumania (a much more experienced team), before falling to Sweden. 1950: Spain, 4th place; they ended up beating the United States (an equal underdog), England (favourite, despite being their first World Cup) and Chile (a more experienced team), but couldn't match Sweden, Brazil, and Uruguay (as the final round was among those teams). 1954: West Germany, champions; they managed to win this World Cup with a ragtag team and despite all odds. 1958: Soviet Union, 6th place; the beginning of Lev Yashin's legend (honourable mentions to Wales and Northern Ireland, also beginners that ended up in the 5th and 7th places, respectably). 1962: Czechoslovakia, 2nd place; they managed to repeat the same heroic parcour as in 1934 (where they also ended 2nd), despite the odds. 1966: North Korea, 8th place; they created the biggest surprised ever, after winning (and eliminating) Italy, only to fall against Portugal (also a beginner and underdog, that managed to end 3rd). 1970: Peru, 7th place; they managed to passed the stage group, only to fall to the future champions, Brazil. 1974: East Germany, 5th place; on their only World Cup appearance, they beat their Western enemy (and future champions) on the first round, but fell to Brazil (future 3rd) and the Netherlands (2nd), on the second round. 1978: Tunisia, 9th; despite falling on the first round, they managed to become the first African team to win a World Cup match (3-1 to Mexico) and draw against the holding champions (0-0 t0 West Germany), before falling to Poland (1-0). 1982: Algeria, 13th; they humiliated West Germany on their opening match and for many, they should have qualified for the next round, but they were eliminated by the Austrian-German arrangement at Gijon (honourable mention to France, 4th place, also stolen by West Germany, after the intense match at Sevilla; and to Cameroon, 17th as they drew all their matches, against future 3rd place Poland, future champions Italy and the eliminated Peru). 1986: Morocco, 11th place; they became the first African team to qualify for the round of 16 (ending first over England, Poland, and Portugal), only to lose against the future 2nd place West Germany (honourable mentions to France and Belgium, 3rd and 4th respectably, after winning over more favourite teams). 1990: Cameroon, 7th place; they became the first African nation to get into the quarter-finals (after surprising Argentina, Romania and Colombia, but only losing to the Soviet Union, on their last World Cup ever, and future 4th England), paving the way for future African teams (honourable mention to Costa Rica, 13th place, as they eliminated both Sweden and Scotland, but lost to Brazil and was eliminated by Czechoslovakia, on their last World Cup ever).

Morocco was the first African team to qualify in the WC knock out in 1986 and they beat Portugal in the last group stage match to do so.. Now they are the first team to reach WC semi Incidentally both time Argentina was WC winners😂

Good fifa

I gave the first like

I think 2018 should’ve been Belgium.

w video

The biggest underdog isn’t in world cup, it’s in uefa euro cup, denmark didn’t qualify for euros even, but later they won it

In Sha Allah an underdog team will won the world cup one day.

Wales 2016

Colombia en Brasil 2014

2006 in my opinion was Portugal

Next indonesia

1986 was Belgium 1990 was Ireland

For 2018, Russia deserves an honorable mention, that's arguably one of the best matches in my opinion in World Cup history, Croatia vs Russia

Hi

👍👍👍

also colombia did good in 2014

2006 Australia did well too

المغرب ❤

2010 is definitely Paraguay or Ghana.

You forgot ghana

Bro Paraguay and Ghana was the best in 2010

Mandzukić scoring against England is a big FUCK YOU for Pickford who almost injured him in the first half and was yelling at suffering Mario

I said this again in another video, but the 10 most populous countries to never play a World Cup (just for you to remember)

NIGERIA - ARGENTINA LOVE STORY

morocco is history

Hope Turkey qualifies for the 2026 World Cup

2002 Türkiye🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷

only in first minute so much wrong info, did not watch futher. Bulgaria did not failed 7 times before, they played 1/8 finals at 1986 world cup (come out from group with Argentina -won the world cup and Italy won the previous world cup), failed only 1990 before. Their best place was 11th (not 15) before that. They played all world cups btw 1962-1974, where only 16th teams from the world qualifies, which means directly 1/8 finals.

Bro said England had 7 World Cup titles

2022 was actually Argentina

Costa Rica was very good in 2014

in 2018 it should have been russia because they were the worst ranked team and stil made it to the last 8

Why is Germany always getting destroyed

INDONESIA 2026 *3RD PLACE*

Greece is not weak they won a euro !!! I know this because I am Greek....!!!!!!!!!!!!🇬🇷🇬🇷😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬

Nc

Yo much talking

9:10 Yeah bc they cheated. Of course the only way they were able to do so was by blocking a goal with their hands What a disgrace Uruguay was especially Suarez. Ghana should’ve been 4th place not the dirty cheaters Uruguay. Paraguay was more impressive though reaching all the way to the last 8 narrowly losing to the champions

What a fucking (English)spelling...!!

2006 should have been Portugal since it was their second ever time making to the Semi Finals since 1966
