Haaland and the other top scorers without a World Cup

Date:

Erling Haaland, Marko Arnautovic and Sheraldo Becker these are the moments leading film makers respectively at least Premier, Serie A and the Bundesliga, but none of them will participate in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar (from November 20 to December 18). Their goals will be missing from the great football festival, where they are among the great absentees.

If one player is causing a sensation in the current football scene, it is undoubtedly Haaland, who, at the age of 22, is breaking records in his debut as a player for Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City. The Norwegian star has 11 goals in the Premier and is also the top scorer, so far, in the Champions League, tied with Robert Lewandowski and Kylian Mbappé (3 each).

But Norway, Haaland’s team, failed to qualify for the 2022 Qatar World Cupdue to the qualifying phase they finished 3rd in group G. In fact, Norway has only played in the final phase of the World Cup three times in its history: in 1938 (reached the round of 16), 1994 (first phase) and 1998 (eighths). ).

Bologna’s Austrian striker Marko Arnautovic, who, with 6 ‘goals’, is currently Serie A’s top scorer, will also miss Qatar. Austria can only be 4th in group F of the qualifying phase of the European zone for Qatar 2022. The Italian team itself, four-time world champion (1934, 1938, 1982 and 2006), did not qualify.

6 goals have been scored so far by Sheraldo Becker They have been important for his team, Union Berlin, to be the leader of the Bundesliga, with 2 points more than Borussia Dortmund, 2nd. But, although he was born in Amsterdam, Becker, 27, is an international for Suriname, a 143rd-ranked FIFA selection that did not qualify for the CONCACAF stage.

Two teams not to miss the Qatar 2022 event They are Neymar’s Brazil (leading scorer in Ligue 1, 8 with PSG) and Cody Gakpo’s Netherlands (from the Eredivisie, 8 with PSV). Regarding Portugal, three players lead the scorers table with 5 goals: Simon Banza (Braga, French but never played for France), Mehdi Taremi (Porto, qualified for the World Cup with Iran) Abdul-Aziz Yakubu ( Rio Av, Ghanaian but never played for his national team).
