Day -774. WorldCup2018
After tomorrow, "doing a Leicester" might become a commonly used
saying. Will any team at Russia 2018 "do a Leicester". South Korea and
Turkey were the last countries that probably qualified as underdogs that
came closest, reaching the semifinals in 2002. Didn't Pele once say
that an African team would win the World Cup by (when did he say) 2000?
Still waiting? And the Americans? They said they were going to win it
soon. China, as you may remember,are being a bit more realistic. Their
target is 2050. Who will be the Leicester of 2018? Colombia? Czech
Republic? Ghana? England? Don't laugh because you know England doing
well at a World Cup is always a surprise.
