The World Cup is the most celebrated sporting event, and World Cup fantasy adds more fun to it. If you have previously played any of World Cup, Euro Cup, FPL, etc, you must be familiar with how it works. Even if you are a beginner, it's very easy, and you will learn very quickly. All you need is a passion towards football. I will review briefly how you can make a team. To know more in details, please check in official page.

Get ready for your team selection. You need to have 15 players on your team: 2 goalkeepers, 5 defenders, 5 midfielders and 3 forwards. You can only have 3 players from a single national team.
