With the end of the World Cup, and the best ‘eleven’ in the World Cup also drawn, it is also time to review which one was the worst. In this relationship there were big surprises when Cristiano Ronaldo appeared here.
The Portuguese striker did not have a good World Cup in Qatar and his participation was marked by controversy. He arrived launching a ‘bombshell’ at Manchester United, losing ownership as a result of disrespecting his teammates after being substituted against South Korea and crashing out in the quarterfinals against Morocco.
CR7 leads the worst ‘eleven’ of the qualifiers played in Qatar, an alignment that also includes stars of the caliber of Lautaro Martínez, goalkeeper Edouard Mendy or ex-FC Barcelona side Serginho Dest.
The World Cup also brought us great failures such as Romelu Lukaku, Manuel Neuer, Dusan Vlahovic or Vinicius Jr., as well as Kevin De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva or Darwin Núñez.
If we count the group stage, the worst ‘eleven’ in Qatar 2022 (with a minimum of 200 minutes played) consists of Neuer; Johnston, Veljkovic, Duarte, Ahmed; Leckie, Ramsey, Lukic, Buchanan; Ali and Lautaro Martinez.
The Argentine remains in this line-up, showing that he did not fare well in the group stage or in the qualifiers, which is why Julián Álvarez owns Argentina.
