We are back! And I am happy because some of the players who made it were serious. Heung-Min Son did what he had to do and South Korea are in the knockout stage, Japan’s coach did a tactical masterclass, kudos to you guys.
However, there were some quite unserious players in the third matches of the group stage and we must get to them.
Goalkeeper
Milan Borjan- Canada have a lot of heart, they will be back in 2026 but they need to find a new keeper, fast. Milan is a great story, very happy that he got to play at a World Cup especially at the age of 35. However, he was at fault for the first goal against Morocco and things went downhill, fast.

Right back
Rasmus Kristensen- Denmark disappointed most people. They were a dark horse hopeful and they came crashing down. I could possibly put 11 players between Belgium and Denmark as the tournaments biggest disaapointments, however, Rasmus was not good at all and was caught out, so much so that he was subbed off.
Center back
Steven Vitoria- Another great story from the Canadian side, also another 35-year-old. However, Steven was at fault for the first goal too and because of that, you are on this list.
Jakub Kiwior- Poland wow, what a shameful display against Argentina. They qualified, barely, but they did. Kiwior was shocking against Argentina, Goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny kept it tame for his countrymen because that was a textbook example of how not to defend.
Left back
Baba Rahman- Ghana could have sought revenge for 2010 and beaten Uruguay, but they got to see Luis Suarez cry anyway which they will take all day. Baba Rahman, in that first half was exploited, both Ghanaian fullbacks were. They grew into the game, but wow that first half was something out of a horror scene. If you are a Ghanaian fan…
