ABSTRACT
The World Cup is considered the premier competition in soccer, with the winner claiming the honor of the title of the sport’s best. Different factors contribute to teams making it all the way to the final and doing well in the competition. We took a whole host of data from the 2022 Qatar World Cup, and gave each team a final rank as well as statistics for each team.
