What to know: The Argentines are looking to become the first nation to retain the men's World Cup title since Brazil in 1962. Messi - yes, him - is the World Cup's all-time leading scorer with 21 goals and has a tournament-topping eight goals this year. Chant of choice: "Vamos, vamos Argentina” ("Let's go, Argentina”) Choose this team if you like: Safe bets, flavorful steak, supremely talented No. 10s. Belgium Odds of lifting the trophy: 30-1 Star players: Kevin De Bruyne, Thibaut Courtois What to know: The Belgians eliminated the United States in the round of 16 - and many around the world felt justice was served following President Donald Trump's intervention to get Folarin Balogun back in the U.S. team lineup for the match. There were low pre-tournament expectations around Belgium, with so few of its longtime stalwarts remaining in the squad. Chant of choice: "Waar is dat feestje” (Where is the party”) or "Tous ensemble” ("All together”) Choose this team if you like: Waffles, chocolate, topical dance celebrations, long-lasting yet underperforming golden generations. England Odds of lifting the trophy: +450 Star players: Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham What to know: It hasn't been spoken about much ... but England's men's team hasn't won a major tournament since the 1966 World Cup. The English invented soccer but have rarely been the best at it. Chant of choice: "It's coming home” Choose this team if you like: Oasis, lions, fish and chips, decades of pain.

Chant of choice: "Dima Maghrib” ("Morocco Forever”) Choose this team if you like: Deserts, souks, underdogs. Norway Odds of lifting the trophy: 14-1 Star players: Erling Haaland, Martin Odegaard What to know: The Norwegians are playing at their first men's World Cup since 1998 and have never gotten this far.

Chant of choice: "Lolololo” Choose this team if you like: Tapas, shutouts, possession soccer, precocious wingers.
