The World Cup is by far and away the most famous and most popular sporting competition on the globe.

Across the world, people will be squeezing into living rooms, tuning in radios and cramming into pubs to catch a glimpse of how their country is going.

Unfortunately for the Socceroos, they have been dealt a difficult group, making their chances of advancing to the knockout stage unlikely once again.

Thus, in the case that they do get knocked out in the group stages, we have created a list of who you should barrack for based on your football team.

4. Collingwood

Germany

Germany has had an extremely successful past, taking home four World Cups, including their most recent one in the early 2010s.

The exact same thing could be said about Collingwood, who have won 15 premierships, including one in 2010.

However, following a little drop-off in the late 2010s and early 2020s, both sides look to be right back in the mix.

The two teams also seem to have a very similar type of squad with a great mix of veterans such as Scott Pendlebury and Thomas Muller, and young guns like Nick Daicos and Jamal Musiala.

Their upcoming competitions could see these new-look sides get back to the heights they previously have reached.
