The Guardian FootballHave the top four teams ever made up the World Cup semi-finalists before? | The Knowledge
Plus: back-to-back heavy wins and defeats, and an unsurprising challenger to a Lionel Messi record Mail us with your all of your questions and answers “The top four teams in the Fifa rankings are also the four semi-finalists at the World Cup,” writes Henry Conroy. “Has this happened before?” The men’s rankings have updated after every match of the World Cup, and Fifa surely missed a trick by not asking the great Martin Tyler to shout “And they’re live!” It means the order has changed during the tournament but the makeup of the top four was the same going into the semi-finals as it was at the start of the competition. Brazil (3) v Germany (2) Netherlands (15) v Argentina (5) Germany (11) v South Korea (40) Brazil (2) v Turkey (22) Germany (19) v Italy (13) Portugal (7) v France (8) Spain (6) v Sweden (3) Australia (10) v England (4) United States (2) v Germany (1) Japan (4) v England (6) Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballWorld Cup and Ballon d’Or in reach as Harry Kane enters defining week of his career
The striker is driven by a sense of destiny but to be remembered as an all-time great outside England requires big-game performances Five days to win the Ballon d’Or. The way to do it: outshine Lionel Messi in Atlanta, then see off Kylian Mbappé or Lamine Yamal on Sunday. For Harry Kane, nothing will come without a fight. The England captain was doubted when he was a kid, back when the youth coaches at Tottenham wondered if it was worth keeping him, and he faces another seismic battle against Argentina on Wednesday. This could be the crowning moment of Kane’s career. The Bayern Munich striker has enjoyed the season of his life, with more domestic trophies in the bag and 73 goals in 64 appearances for club and country. There are more steps to take, though. The chance to lead England into a first World Cup final abroad is within reach. All Kane has to do to is outperform the greatest footballer of all time. Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballFootball without faith is nothing so Infantino is playing with fire at World Cup | Jonathan Wilson
Swirl around Fifa’s machinations and about big team and big name bias creates doubt – and that’s a dangerous game About 25 years ago, I was in the office of a sports newspaper in Bucharest on a Saturday afternoon following the Premier League games with some local journalists. With about five minutes to go, Chelsea trailed 2-1. Somebody had backed Chelsea to lose and brandished his betting slip. Chelsea scored. A couple of minutes later, they scored again. The reporter tossed the slip away. I saw drama; the Romanians saw a fix. This is why integrity and the perception of integrity are so important. I don’t think that game was fixed. There is no evidence whatsoever it was fixed. Given the salaries players earn and the sophistication of the early warning system for unusual betting patterns, there is little chance Premier League games are fixed. But if you grew up in the declining days of the Ceauşescu era or the wild west that followed, when match-fixing wasn’t so much an open secret as a simple fact, cynicism is the natural response.
