World Cup 2014: Top 5 Contenders for Winning the Trophy

World Cup 2014 will begin from 12th June, 2014 (Thursday) and will end on 13th July, 2014 (Sunday). Brazil will be hosting this year's World Cup.As World Cup 2014 will begin in June, here is a brief look on 5 top contenders who can win this year's prestigious trophy:

#1 Spain

After winning World Cup 2010 in South Africa, current world champions Spain are the most possible contenders of winning this year's World Cup in Brazil. With the likes of David Villa, David Silva, captain Iker Casillas, Sergio Ramos, Gerard Pique, Carles Puyol, Xabi Alonso, Cesc Fabregas, Pedro Rodriguez and others, it is nearly impossible to defeat this team. With their 'tiki-taka', they have succeeded in making the whole world crazy for themselves. Thanks to Vicente Del Bosque's strategies and tactics due to which La Roja are the strongest team in the world.

They have been in great form for several years. Their performance in recent friendlies show how much they have developed, especially after winning the World Cup. Since then, winning came in their blood.

Since September 2013, when they defeated Finland 0-2 in WC qualifier, their motive was well known to everyone, that they will surely do anything to lift World Cup for the consecutive second time. They went on to win their every qualifier match, against Belarus 2-1, in which  Xavi and Negredo were on scoresheet for the hosts. They ended their qualifier campaign with another 2-0 win over Georgia which saw them finishing on top of the table, thanks to Alvaro Negredo and Juan Mata's fantastic goals.

I predict they will reach the finals and maybe will win the trophy too.
