Who will win the World Cup?

After that infamous 7-1 loss in 2014, you know Brazil will be looking for revenge. Will Germany retain its crown, or is an incredibly talented Belgium team primed to take the prize?

Can Lionel Messi finally win the World Cup and end the "greatest of all time" debate? Will Cristiano Ronaldo best his great rival on the international stage? Or is this the tournament where Neymar surpass them both as the best player in the world?

And if you want to make sure you don’t miss a goal, even when traveling abroad, make sure you have a VPN in your streaming lineup!
