The '''2018 FIFA World Cup''' was an international [[Association football|football]] tournament contested by [[List of men's national association football teams|men's national teams]] and took place between 14 June and 15 July 2018 in Russia. It was the 21st [[FIFA World Cup]], a worldwide football tournament held once every four years. It was the 11th time the championships had been held in Europe, and the first time they were held in Eastern Europe. At an estimated cost of over $14.2 billion, it was the most expensive World Cup to date. |
|||
The finals involved 32 teams, of which 31 came through [[2018 FIFA World Cup qualification|qualifying competitions]], while as the host nation [[Russia national football team|Russia]] qualified automatically. Of the 32, 20 had also appeared in the [[2014 FIFA World Cup|2014 event]], while both [[Iceland national football team|Iceland]] and [[Panama national football team|Panama]] made their first appearances at the World Cup. 64 matches were played in 12 venues across 11 cities. [[Germany national football team|Germany]], the defending champions, were eliminated in the group stage. Host nation Russia was eliminated in the quarter-finals. In the [[2018 FIFA World Cup Final|final]], [[France national football team|France]] played [[Croatia national football team|Croatia]] on 15 July at the [[Luzhniki Stadium]] in [[Moscow]]. France won the match 4–2 to claim their second World Cup. |
|||
<br /> |
|||
The event featured a number of accolades. Croatian player [[Luka Modrić]] was voted the tournament's best player winning the Golden Ball. England's [[Harry Kane]] scored the most goals during the tournament with six. [[Thibaut Courtois]] won the Golden Glove awarded to the [[goalkeeper]] with the most [[clean sheet]]s. The event was praised for the quality of football but criticised for being a distraction from [[Doping in Russia|doping allegations]] and public relations within Russia. It has been estimated that more than three million people attended games during the tournament. |

The [[2018 and 2022 FIFA World Cup bids|bidding procedure to host the 2018 and 2022 FIFA World Cup tournaments]] began in January 2009, and national associations had until 2 February 2009 to register their interest.<ref name="d6GeE" /> Initially, nine countries placed bids for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, but Mexico later withdrew from the proceedings,<ref name="FtNjO" /> and Indonesia's bid was rejected by FIFA in February 2010 after the Indonesian government failed to submit a letter to support the bid.<ref name="GhOle" /> During the bidding process, the three remaining non-[[UEFA]] nations (Australia, Japan, and the United States) gradually withdrew from the 2018 bids, and thus were ruled out of the 2022 bid. As such, there were eventually four bids for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, two of which were joint bids: England, Russia, Netherlands/Belgium, and Portugal/Spain.<ref name="xBccj" /> |
|||
The 22-member [[FIFA Council|FIFA Executive Committee]] convened in [[Zürich]] on 2 December 2010 to vote to select the hosts of both tournaments.<ref name="WFQKr" /> Russia won the right to be the 2018 host in the second round of voting. The Portugal/Spain bid came second, and that from Belgium/Netherlands third. England, which was bidding to host its second tournament, was eliminated in the first round.<ref name="kKxiB" /> |

===Video assistant referees=== |
|||
Shortly after the [[International Football Association Board]]'s decision to incorporate [[video assistant referee]]s (VARs) into the [[Laws of the Game (association football)|Laws of the game]] (LOTG) on 16 March 2018, the [[FIFA Council]] took the much-anticipated step of approving the use of VAR for the first time in a FIFA World Cup tournament.<ref name="fifa_20180316" /><ref name="jkNow" /> |
|||
VAR operations for all games were operated from a single headquarters in Moscow, which received live video of the games and were in radio contact with the on-field referees.<ref name=":0" /> Systems were in place for communicating VAR-related information to broadcasters and visuals on stadiums' large screens were used for the fans in attendance.<ref name=":0" /> |
|||
VAR had a significant impact on several games.<ref name="nh0b0" /> On 15 June 2018, [[Diego Costa]]'s goal against Portugal became the first World Cup goal based on a VAR decision;<ref name="isPIb" /> the first penalty as a result of a VAR decision was awarded to France in their match against Australia on 16 June and resulted in a goal by [[Antoine Griezmann]].<ref name="iQyFC" /> A record number of penalties were awarded in the tournament, a phenomenon partially attributed to VAR.<ref name="zeD2b" /> Overall, the new technology was both praised and criticised by commentators.<ref name="neijv" /> FIFA declared the implementation of VAR a success after the first week of competition.<ref name="swBxZ" /> |
|||
==Venues== |
|||
Russia proposed the following host cities: [[Kaliningrad]], [[Kazan]], [[Krasnodar]], [[Moscow]], [[Nizhny Novgorod]], [[Rostov-on-Don]], [[Saint Petersburg]], [[Samara]], [[Saransk]], [[Sochi]], [[Volgograd]], [[Yaroslavl]], and [[Yekaterinburg]].<ref name="b9r6N" /> Each city was located in [[European Russia]], except [[Yekaterinburg]],<ref name="S3sSt" /> which is located very close to the Europe-Asia border, to reduce travel time for the teams in the huge country. The bid evaluation report stated: "The Russian bid proposes 13 host cities and 16 stadiums, thus exceeding FIFA's minimum requirement. Three of the 16 stadiums would be renovated, and 13 would be newly constructed."<ref name="Z1hqZ" /> |
|||
In October 2011, Russia reduced the number of stadiums from 16 to 14. Construction of the proposed [[Podolsk]] stadium in the Moscow region was cancelled by the regional government. Also, in the capital, [[Otkritie Arena]] was competing with [[VTB Arena|Dynamo Stadium]] over which would be constructed first.<ref name="8DESn" />{{dead link|date=March 2020}} |
|||
The final choice of host cities was announced on 29 September 2012. The number of cities was reduced further to 11 and the number of stadiums to 12 as Krasnodar and Yaroslavl were dropped from the final list. Of the 12 stadiums used for the tournament, three (Luzhniki, Yekaterinburg and Sochi) had been extensively renovated and the other nine were brand new; $11.8 billion was spent on hosting the tournament.<ref name="VKrDx" /> |
|||
Sepp Blatter had said in July 2014 that, given the concerns over the completion of venues in Russia, the number of venues for the tournament may be reduced from 12 to 10.<ref name="Sy4OR" /> He also said, "We are not going to be in a situation, as is the case of one, two or even three stadiums [[2010 FIFA World Cup|in South Africa]], where it is a problem of what you do with these stadiums".<ref name="saakov" /> |
|||
[[File:EstadioCentral2017-01-26.jpg|thumb|Reconstruction of the Yekaterinburg Central Stadium in January 2017]] |
|||
In October 2014, on their first official visit to Russia, FIFA's inspection committee and its head, Chris Unger, visited St. Petersburg, Sochi, Kazan and both Moscow venues. They were satisfied with the progress.<ref name="u01d8" /> On 8 October 2015, FIFA and the local organising committee agreed on the official names of the stadiums to be used during the tournament.<ref name="AL037" /> Of the twelve venues, the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow and the Saint Petersburg Stadium—the two largest stadiums in Russia—were used most; both hosted seven matches. Sochi, Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod and Samara each hosted six matches, including one quarter-final match each, while the Spartak Stadium in Moscow and Rostov-on-Don hosted five matches, including one round-of-16 match each. Volgograd, Kaliningrad, Yekaterinburg and Saransk each hosted four matches, but did not host any knockout stage games. |

[[File:Bel-Tun (26).jpg|thumb|{{Center|Exterior of Otkrytie Arena}}{{Center| in Moscow}}]] |
|||
Twelve stadiums in eleven Russian cities were built or renovated for the FIFA World Cup. Between 2010 (when Russia were announced as hosts) and 2018, nine of the 12 stadiums were built (some in place of older, outdated venues) and the other three were renovated for the tournament.<ref name="bVCgh" /> |
|||
* Kaliningrad: Kaliningrad Stadium (new). The first piles were driven into the ground in September 2015. On 11 April 2018 it hosted its first match. |
|||
* Kazan: Kazan Arena (new). The stadium was built for the 2013 Summer [[Universiade]]. It has since hosted the [[2015 World Aquatics Championships]] and the [[2017 FIFA Confederations Cup]]. It serves as a home arena for [[FC Rubin Kazan]]. |
|||
* Moscow: Luzhniki Stadium (renovated). The largest stadium in the country, it was closed for renovation in 2013. It was commissioned in November 2017. |
|||
* Moscow: Spartak Stadium (new). This stadium is the home arena to its namesake [[FC Spartak Moscow]]. In accordance with FIFA requirements, during the 2018 World Cup, it was called Spartak Stadium instead of its usual name Otkritie Arena. It hosted its first match on 5 September 2014. |
|||
* Nizhny Novgorod: Nizhny Novgorod Stadium (new). Construction of this stadium commenced in 2015 and was completed in December 2017.<ref name="L1mHo" /> |
|||

==Preparation and costs== |
|||
===Budget=== |
|||
[[File:Scale model of Volgograd Arena.jpg|thumb|Scale model of the [[Volgograd Arena]] whose construction began in 2015.]] |
|||
At an estimated cost of over $14.2 billion {{as of|2018|June|lc=y}},<ref name="rbc" /> the 2018 FIFA event was the most expensive World Cup in history, surpassing the cost of the [[2014 FIFA World Cup]] in Brazil.<ref name="rbc" /><ref name="risen" /> |
|||
The [[Russian government]] had originally earmarked a [[Federal budget of Russia|budget]] of around $20 billion,<ref name="Vic6q" /> which was later slashed to $10 billion, for World Cup preparations. Half was spent on transportation infrastructure.<ref name="Z3cgt" /> As part of the program to prepare for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, a federal sub-program—"Construction and Renovation of Transport Infrastructure"—was implemented with a total budget of ₽352.5 billion (rubles), with ₽170.3 billion coming from the federal budget, ₽35.1 billion from regional budgets, and ₽147.1 billion from investors.<ref name="znfNx" /> The biggest item of federal spending was the aviation infrastructure costing ₽117.8 billion.<ref name="9ZAlZ" /> Construction of new hotels was a crucial area of infrastructure development in World Cup host cities. Costs continued to mount as preparations were underway.<ref name="risen" /> |
|||
===Infrastructure spending=== |
|||
[[Platov International Airport]] in [[Rostov-on-Don]] was upgraded with automated [[air traffic control systems]]. Modern surveillance, navigation, communication, control, and [[Meteorology|meteorological]] support systems were also installed.<ref name="gazeta" /> [[Koltsovo Airport]] in [[Yekaterinburg]] was upgraded with radio-engineering tools for flight operation and received a second runway. [[Saransk Airport]] received a new navigation system; two new hotels were constructed in the city—the Mercure Saransk Centre ([[Accor Hotels]]) and Four Points by Sheraton Saransk ([[Starwood Hotels]]) as well as few other smaller accommodation facilities.<ref name="JdcLw" /> In [[Samara]], new tram lines were laid.<ref name="V8Erd" /> [[Khrabrovo Airport]] in [[Kaliningrad]] was upgraded with radio navigation and weather equipment.<ref name="mESzC" /> Renovation and upgraded radio-engineering tools for flight operations was completed in the [[Myachkovo Airport|Moscow]], [[Pulkovo Airport|Saint Petersburg]], [[Volgograd International Airport|Volgograd]], [[Kurumoch International Airport|Samara]], Yekaterinburg, [[Kazan International Airport|Kazan]] and [[Sochi International Airport|Sochi]] airports.<ref name="gazeta" /> On 27 March, the Russian Ministry of Construction Industry, Housing and Utilities Sector of reported that all communications within its area of responsibility had been commissioned. The last facility commissioned was a waste treatment station in Volgograd. In Yekaterinburg, where four matches were hosted, hosting costs increased to over ₽7.4 billion, exceeding the ₽5.6 billion rubles originally allocated from the state and regional budget.<ref name="KInKi" /> |
|||

Preference, especially in key areas, was given to those with knowledge of a foreign language and volunteering experience, but not necessarily to Russian nationals.<ref name="XKwek" /> |
|||
===Transport=== |
|||
Free [[public transport]] services were offered for ticketholders during the World Cup, including additional trains linking host cities, as well as services such as bus services within them.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" /><ref name=":3" /> |
|||
==Schedule== |
|||
[[File:До чемпионата мира по футболу 2018 года – 1000 дней 01.jpg|thumb|Launching of a 1,000 days countdown in Moscow]] |
|||
The full schedule was announced by FIFA on 24 July 2015 without kick-off times, which were confirmed later.<ref name="gC6kY" /><ref name="VK3vK" /> On 1 December 2017, following the final draw, FIFA adjusted six kick-off times.<ref name="schedule" /><ref name="j1dMP" /> |
|||

[[File:Sdm 4658.jpg|thumb|right|Soprano [[Aida Garifullina]] and pop singer [[Robbie Williams]] singing "[[Angels (Robbie Williams song)|Angels]]" at the opening ceremony]] |
|||
The opening ceremony took place on Thursday, 14 June 2018, at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, preceding the [[2018 FIFA World Cup Group A#Russia vs Saudi Arabia|opening match of the tournament]] between hosts Russia and Saudi Arabia.<ref name="6DWCb" /><ref name="XP8Bx" /> |
|||
At the start of the ceremony, Russian president [[Vladimir Putin]] gave a speech, welcoming the countries of the world to Russia and calling football a uniting force.<ref name="BBC 2018" /> Brazilian World Cup-winning striker [[Ronaldo (Brazilian footballer)|Ronaldo]] entered the stadium with a child in a Russia jersey.<ref name="BBC 2018" /> Pop singer [[Robbie Williams]] then sang two of his songs solo before he and Russian soprano [[Aida Garifullina]] performed a duet.<ref name="BBC 2018" /> Dancers dressed in the flags of the 32 competing teams appeared carrying a sign with the name of each nation.<ref name="BBC 2018" /> At the end of the ceremony Ronaldo reappeared with the official match ball which had returned from the [[International Space Station]] in early June.<ref name="BBC 2018" /> |
|||
==Group stage== |
|||
Competing countries were divided into eight groups of four teams (groups A to H). Teams in each group played one another in a [[round-robin tournament|round-robin]], with the top two teams advancing to the [[#Knockout stage|knockout stage]]. Ten European teams and four South American teams progressed to the knockout stage, together with Japan and Mexico. |
|||
For the first time since [[1938 FIFA World Cup|1938]] Germany, the reigning champions, did not advance past the first round. No African team progressed to the second round for the first time since [[1982 FIFA World Cup|1982]]. The fair play criteria came into use for the first time when Japan qualified over Senegal because the team had received fewer yellow cards. Only one match, France versus Denmark, was goalless. Until then there were a record 36 straight games in which at least one goal was scored.<ref name="MZF7F" /> |
|||
All times listed below are [[Time in Russia|local time]].<ref name="schedule" /> |
