From 1930 until today, dozens of unforgettable games have been recorded in the World Cup, which have gone down in history.
Even in the upcoming World Cup in Qatar, several games are expected that will be more than just another football game, and may be remembered for generations, either because of the level and the events on the field, or because of the surrounding picaresque.
So we got a real challenge, almost like trying to win the Holy Grail.
To do the impossible, and try to rank for you the ten most interesting games in the biggest tournament in the world that will start soon in Qatar - put it in your diaries, and don't miss it.
1. USA - Iran (November 29)
World War III hasn't started yet, but if it does start over a football game, let us guess which game it will be.
The intriguing and tense confrontation between the United States and Iran, in a game that, like the script written above, is supposed to take place in the group stage (Group B), brings the ultimate rivalry, a clash between worlds, cultures, superpowers - into the soccer field, for 90 minutes in which it will be decided who Be with her upper hand.
Is there anything to add?

2. Senegal - Netherlands (November 21)
Holland traditionally has many games that have entered the pantheon.
The 5-1 defeat Shawn Percy and his friends inflicted on Spain in 2014, Bergkamp's overtime victory over Argentina in 1998, and more.
The game against Senegal on the second day of the championship, could be one that will go into the memory of all of us, when it brings together the European power with an African team that is able to challenge it.

The meeting between Leo Messi and his team against Mexico, which always comes up short but knows how to pull off a good performance in the World Cup, is another game you should not miss.
A meeting on the purity of South America, where we expect to see goals, exciting football, a dizzying pace, and above all, a response.
Is this the World Cup for "the flea", or will he return with his tail between his legs to Argentina?

4. France - Denmark (November 26)
This will be the day when the world will stop and look at the next big thing, or actually the one who is already considered the best player in the world, the official heir to Messi and Ronaldo and the one who will dominate world football in the era after the two defeats, together with the Norwegian alien Holland who will be absent from the World Cup.

5. Spain - Germany (November 26)
A meeting between two of the empires of world football is not something that really needs explaining its importance.

7. Brazil - Argentina (potential semi-final meeting on December 13)
How many years have we been waiting for the big meeting between the two giants of South America, and the world in general?
Since the 90' World Cup, these two have not met.
And as much as we want to see Vinicius looking at Messi with the whites of his eyes, Neymar trying to decide Di Maria, this meeting of the titans, if it happens - and it could happen in a certain scenario in the semi-finals, the whole world will stop for a moment and wait for the decision, and it's going to be more fascinating than ever.

8. Argentina - Portugal (potential meeting in the final on December 18)
What do we want in this life, if not a meeting between the two greatest of the last generation, maybe ever, on the biggest stage of all?
Just imagining a final match between Messi's Argentina and Ronaldo's Portugal makes the heads of the fences tremble, the heart vibrate, and the mind fly with the imagination.
All ratings records will be broken, all proportions will be lost, and every word will be superfluous.
Give it to us, please.
Beyond the professional aspect, and the fact that these are two excellent national teams, legitimate candidates to go all the way, give us once and for all the opportunity to decide the most fateful question of all, who is greater, Messi or Ronaldo?
