Here are the top players you need to watch out for:
1. Lionel Messi
Messi has achieved almost everything but is yet to win the FIFA World Cup trophy, for which he has been playing in every World Cup for the last 16 years (2006, 2010, 2014, 2018, and now 2022). Eight years ago, Messi led Argentina to the 2014 World Cup final, losing 0-1 to Germany. 35-year-old Messi has had a remarkable career, establishing himself as one of the greatest footballers of all time. He is often compared to the late Diego Maradona, the legendary footballer who too played for Argentina like Messi.
2. Dominik Livakovic
Livakovic is one of the big names in Croatia’s lineup. He has played a crucial role in Croatia’s winning run in the ongoing FIFA World Cup 2022. For the last 2 weeks, he has shown his finesse in penalty shootouts. He is the only goalkeeper along with Harald Schumacher and Danijel Subasic who saved four shootouts.
3. Alexis Mac Allister
Mac Allister is an important player for Brighton & Hove Albion. He has amassed 5 goals in 14 Premier League appearances. In the group stage, Allister also scored a goal against Poland. He is termed as a creative player by many football pundits.
