Football World Cup 2018 – The Look of Football Professionals

On June 14, 2018, the time has come again: it’s the next round of the World Cup! Every four years, the FIFA World Cup takes place in just under four weeks and people around the world are succumbing to football fever. This year, the World Cup is being held in Russia.

The first World Cup took place in Uruguay in 1930. At the beginning, the FIFA had a hard time inspiring teams to participate. A World Cup qualification, as we know it today, did not exist then, everyone being allowed to participate. After the first World Cup, the entire world took notice of this competition and initial doubts were thrown overboard. Over the years, more and more fans and teams have been won over for the World Cup.

In the meantime, a total of 20 football World Cups have been played. At the top of the teams that have won the world championship title is Brazil with 5 titles, followed by Germany and Italy with 4 titles each. And it remains exciting who will win the title this year. But one thing is sure: the players not only have to cut a fine figure on the pitch…

In Style to the Title of World Champion

Football players enjoy a lot of publicity during the World Cup. Aside from the preparations for the World Cup and the speculation about which team has what it takes to take home the world championship title, a stylish appearance of the players is, in particular, in the focus of the media-attentive population, the motto being stylish, modern and a dash of coolness. We will enlighten you on the styles of the football professionals, because among footballers, sunglasses are one of the most popular fashion accessories, in addition to large watches and baseball caps.

He is currently the captain, record player and record shooter of the Portuguese national team. In addition to sponsorship and advertising contracts with well-known brands such as Nike, Armani, TAG Heuer or Samsung, Ronaldo is also active in the social sector. He is involved in charity projects in Gaza, is an ambassador for the “Save the Children” child rights organization, donates money to a cancer centre and often surprises sick children in hospitals to cheer them up. Not only his social streak distinguishes the football star, but also his confident appearance – a sporty, muscular look is just as important to Ronaldo as a stylish outfit, which he likes to spice up with striking sunglasses with red tinted lenses and a double bridge, as this copy of Carrera.

Paul Pogba (France)

Born in France, Paul Labile Pogba plays for the French national team and has been with Manchester United since August 2016. Pogba is not only known for his breathtaking performance on the field, but also for his ever-changing, unusual hairstyles – he sometimes rubs red and white stripes in his hair, then suddenly he appears bleached in the press and the next time Emoji -Shares like “fire” or a “clef” are shaved into his hair. But Pogba also makes statements with his hairstyles: for the UEFA campaign “Equal Game”, which campaigns against racism in football and for which the Frenchman acts as a testimonial, Pogba had the hashtag “#equal” shaved into his hair. The fashion-conscious professional footballer not only is multifaceted in terms of hairstyles. His style ranges from classic chic in a suit to sporty, modern with casual jeans, college jacket and bandana. Inconspicuous sunglasses are always his companion in classical colors and shapes, such as these silver aviator sunglasses by Porsche Design, which match any outfit and despite their simple nature, or perhaps because of that, set a clear fashion statement.
