Argentina will win the World Cup in 2022, according to a supercomputer.
If you like Messi and Argentina, you'll enjoy this. Argentina will win the World Cup in 2022, according to a supercomputer.
Not only that, but the AI machine predicts Argentina will defeat Ronaldo's Portugal on penalties at Doha's Lusail Stadium. England will lose to Portugal in a penalty shoot-out in the 2022 World Cup semi-finals, according to BCA Research's experiment.
To obtain the results, the supercomputer calculated results from the previous four World Cups (192 group stage games and 64 knockout rounds) and simulated the current national team's FIFA rankings. In addition, the machine compiled player statistics from EA Sports FIFA 2023.
It should be noted that EA Sports also ran its own simulation using FIFA 23, with Argentina winning the World Cup.
It appears that the supercomputer will pit the two game legends in the final of their respective World Cups. Who wouldn't want to see it?
"After much deliberation, we believe that when all is said and done, Argentina and Lionel Messi will be the ones to lift the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar," according to the BCA research in its publication The Most Important Of All Unimportant Forecasts 2nd Edition: 2022 FIFA World Cup.
"How certain are we about our winner selection? While we are pleased with our selection, Argentina will face many close games during the group stage, with the final essentially a coin toss. As a result, even as favorites, they have a 7% chance of winning the World Cup."
Argentina is unbeaten in 34 games, including a Copa America title last summer. They're also the hottest ticket at this year's tournament, which begins on November 20 in Qatar.
If Messi wins the World Cup, Champions League, and Ligue 1, he will undoubtedly be on his way to a record eighth Ballon d'Or. In just 18 matches for PSG this season, he has already scored 15 goals and provided 12 assists.
