The 2018 World Cup kicks off on Thursday in Russia and it’s already proving to be one for the history books. Perennially dominant teams such as the Netherlands and Italy aren’t competing this year and neither will the United States after failing to qualify this past October. The tournament is also taking place amid ongoing scandals surrounding FIFA and an investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. election. Forum talks about the games to watch and the politics surrounding the World Cup. Tell us, what country are you rooting for? What matchups are you most anticipating and why?
