World Cup 2018 : Argentina farewell for Mascherano, Smolov and Russia create sensation

The World Cup 2018 takes place from 14th June to 15th July. It should be noted that 81 players who took part in the Maurice Revello Tournament compete in the World Cup. Throughout the competition, we will take look at their performances !

France-Argentina : 4-3

Gabriel Mercado (who played the Tournament in 2006) gave a 2-1 lead to Argentina after 48 minutes but Hugo Lloris and his teammates came from behind to secure a thrilling win. After the game, Javier Mascherano has announced that he’s retiring from international football. The Maurice Revello Tournament 2003 best player is the Argentina most capped player ever as he earned 145 international caps.

Uruguay-Portugal : 2-1

Despite having four Toulon Tournament former players in the starting line-up (Ricardo Pereira, Adrien Silva, Joao Mario and Cristiano Ronaldo), Portugal have been beaten by the Celeste. Like in 2010, the Seleçao faced a last-16 exit. Frustrating for the European champions…

Spain-Russia : 1-1 (3-4 pen)

This is already the biggest sensation of the round of 16 ! Spain have been eliminated by the country host. This is a fairytale story for the Russians who reached the World Cup quarter-finals for the first time ever. Fedor Smolov helped his side to clinch the qualification as he scored during the penalty shootout.      

Croatia-Denmark : 1-1 (3-2 pen)

The Maurice Revello Tournament 2010 runner-up Mathias Jorgensen netted the opener after one minute only. Unfortunately for him and his teammates, Croatians levelled the scores quickly and eventually won the game after the penalty shootout.
