Welcome everyone. Thanks for coming to our show. Have a seat and enjoy Russian Blini pancakes, Hilsha pakora, Masala Kucho Chingri Bhajha and the world famous Gregorian Red Wine imported from Moscow last year. 

Gopinath Goldar: 'Old wine tastes good. Thanks for giving us a chance to taste the Gregorian Wine. It is world famous indeed. There are only two wine shops in Kolkata which keeps imported Wines of Europe. 

Mayurakshi Maurya: 'Even the blini pancakes are good. Something different !

Arindam: 'Thanks for the compliments ! By the way, which team is going to win the FIFA World Cup of 2018 ? Let us analyze it in details. 

Birendranath Bhaduri: 'Bhai ! Jatoi tumi Russian pancake khaowao, Hilsha pakora aar Chingri bhaja taai bhalo khete hoyeche. Bengali food and Bengali football always rocks ! Anyway ! Let me tell you my prediction. From Group A, Uruguay and Russia will qualify. From Group B, Portugal and Spain will qualify. From Group C, France and Australia will qualify. From Group D, Argentina and Nigeria will qualify. From Group E, Brazil and Switzerland will qualify. From Group F, Germany and South Korea will qualify. From Group G, England and Belgium will qualify. From Group H, Japan and Senegal will qualify. 

Arindam: 'Maybe, somehow, you have underestimated Colombia, Denmark, Mexico and Croatia. Even they can qualify. Ok ! Now, let us go to the Round of 16 Prediction. 

Gopinath Goldar: 'France will beat Nigeria. Spain will beat Uruguay. Portugal will beat Russia and Argentina will beat Australia. 

Arindam: 'Aah ! We are really missing good teams like Netherlands and Italy in this World Cup to make it more competitive in the Round of 16. So, madam ! Which teams will win in the Quarter Finals from here on.

Mayurakshi Maurya: 'Spain, despite not in a good form will beat France. Brazil Vs England will be a very competitive one, but, still, Brazil will win. Germany will easily beat Japan. Argentina Vs Portugal will be a very interesting match. It will be actually Lionel Messi Vs Christiano Ronaldo. But, I think, if Lionel Messi gets good support from his teammates, then Argentina can beat Portugal in the Quarter Final. 

Arindam: See ! There is no guarantee that France and England will not win. Even Portugal may win too. Maybe, you are too supportive towards Latin American teams. Anyway, these are all predictions. Now, which teams will play the World Cup Final ?

Birendranath Bhaduri : 'As per our prediction in this studio today, Brazil Vs Spain will be the first Semi Final. Brazil will beat Spain. In the 2nd Semi Final, it is Argentina Vs Germany. Germany has the advantage, but, considering the recent forms of some Argentinian footballers along with Lionel Messi, Argentina may reach the Final. Let's see. 

Gopinath Goldar: 'No ! No ! Germany will reach the final. Even, Brazil may lose against Spain. The World Cup of 2018 will go to Europe. 

Arindam: 'Ha ha ha... Well ! Whether the World Cup will go to South America or Europe, this debate is always there in each and every FIFA World Cup. That's the flavour of this fantastic football fever. Ok ! If for a few minutes, if I assume that Brazil Vs Argentina will be the final match, then 'WHICH FOOTBALL TEAM WILL LIFT THE FIFA WORLD CUP OF 2018'? 

Mayurakshi Maurya: 'Of course ! Argentina ! What Diego Maradona did for Argentina, now Lionel Messi will do it for Argentina !'

Birendranath Bhaduri: 'Naa ! Naa ! Oto taao sojaa noy ! Hoy Brazil baa Germany ee World Cup paabe.'

Gopinath Goldar: 'Guru ! Germany ke tahole consider karcho.'

Birendranath Bhaduri: 'Germany is not your East Bengal Club. It is Germany team only. You guys are blind fans of Germany. But, maybe, we are surely underestimating Portugal as well as England. They can also surprise everyone. We, the Bengali football fans love to see the skillful game of Brazil. So, by default, we always keep Brazil as a team to win the World Cup.'

Arindam: 'Ok ! So, the hot contenders are Brazil, Germany, Argentina, Portugal and maybe, England, France and Spain. The football fever has started. Let us see who wins this FIFA World Cup of 2018.
