Tournament Fifa World Cup 2018 (Football)
Host Russia
Teams 32

The 2018 FIFA football World Cup tournament, taken place in Russia between June 14 and July 15 2018, was the 21st edition of the quadrennially held international soccer competition. It was the first time the competition held in Eastern Europe, as Russia becomes the eighth European nation to host the tournament. The selection of Russia as host of the world cup makes them the largest country geographically to ever host the tournament, while Qatar—the succeeding host nation, scheduled to host the tournament in 2022—will not only become the first Middle-Eastern nation to host the tournament, but will also become the smallest country geographically to ever do so.

England’s Harry Kane with his tally of six goals finished as the tournament’s top scorer to win the Golden Boot award. He was followed by France’s Griezmann and Kylian Mbappe along with Russia’s Denis Cheryshev, Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo and Belgium’s Romelu Lukaku, with four goals each.

 

Golden Glove Winner of FIFA World Cup 2018

Belgium goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois emerged as the World Cup’s best goalkeeper and picked up the Golden Glove award for his contributions to his side’s third-place finish.

 

Best Young Player Winner of FIFA World Cup 2018

France’s 19-year-old striker Kylian Mbappe, who became the second teenager after Pele to score in World Cup final, picked up the best young player of the tournament.

 

Fair Play award Winner of FIFA World Cup 2018

Spain, who were knocked out 3-4 on penalties by hosts Russia in the round of 16, bagged the Fair Play award.

In the World Cup final, France dominated Croatia 4-1 to win their second-ever World Cup at the Luzhniki Stadium. Coach Didier Deschamps became the third person to win the Cup as a player and as a coach. Paul Pogba and Kylian Mbappe fired stunning goals in the second-half to seal the match for France. Croatia held majority of the possession in the first-half but conceded goals off set-pieces as Mandzukic scored an own goal, first in a World Cup final, and Ivan Perisic gifted France to take the lead with a penalty in the 38th minute.
