1
What happens when you simulate the World Cup 10,000 times?
2
This simulation was built using a model trained on thousands of real matches and probability data, not AI.
3
And we're going to tell you exactly how it unfolds.
4
Within this video, there will be a team that progresses from the group with only one point.
5
A team that doesn't concede a single goal all tournament long and possibly the greatest final of all time.
6
We've got so many crazy simulations,
7
you honestly will not believe how some of them played out and hopefully will play out because that's the fun of this.
8
So let's kick this off with the group stages.
9
And despite not having a clear favourite,
10
Group A threw out some really interesting results.
11
South Africa were the most likely to finish bottom of this group.
12
They did so 4,670 times.
13
Now, despite this, there were 12 simulations where they didn't just get through the group.
14
They won the whole tournament.
15
In simulation 4733, they beat Belgium,
16
the USA, Croatia, Germany, and then Argentina in the final to win the whole thing.
17
South African fans, are you excited?
18
Let me know in the comments down below, please.
19
But ultimately, the most likely winners of this group were Mexico.
20
And in roughly half of the simulations, they won the group.
21
with Korea Republic being the second most likely to do so,
22
meaning that the probabilities from the simulations have them finishing second.
23
However, in simulation 1-2-2 or 122,
24
depending on who you are,
25
every single game in this group finished as a draw,
26
with Mexico and Czechia progressing on goals scored.
27
Now, Group B, it was an interesting one because there was a clear dominant team in this one.
28
The neutrals' favourite, Switzerland, won the group over 5,400 times,
29
making them by far the most likely to win the group.
30
But Canada, Canada fared very well in the 10,000 simulations too.
31
They've never made the knockout stages before,
32
but in our simulations, they made the round of 32 over 9,000 times.
33
Get ready for history to be made, possibly.
34
And the simulations actually had quite a few instances of Canada making the final.
35
But, of course, it's not that simple because in 17 of these finals,
36
their opposition was the USA.
37
And Canada actually won 11 of those finals.
38
Elsewhere in the group, Bosnia were the most likely to finish third,
39
whilst Qatar finished bottom in over half of the simulations.
40
Now, Group A and Group B, great stuff, OK?
41
And there's wonderful things to come.
42
But I've got to say,
43
Group C is by far the most surprising.
44
Now, typically, most people would have Brazil as favourites for the group, obviously.
45
The simulations saw it differently overall because Morocco topped this group 46.7% of the time,
46
with Brazil only topping it 43.7% of the time.
47
Now, obviously, Morocco have a point to prove after AFCON.
48
And actually, the AFCON final was replayed in 15 different simulations.
49
Speaking of AFCON, in simulation 9016,
50
they beat Senegal 4-0 to win the whole thing.
51
Could you imagine?
52
But in Sim 2482, Brazil were involved in possibly the best World Cup final ever.
53
Yep, trumping the last one.
54
They faced Belgium and it ended 5-5.
55
Imagine that.
56
It went to penalties, but I'm sorry to say,
57
Brazil, Belgium came out on top in that simulation.
58
Now, before I give you the bad news, bad news for some.
59
Let me tell you this.
60
In simulation 6,775, what a bell that was.
61
Scotland beat Germany, France, Switzerland,
62
and Bosnia to make it to the final against England.
63
And it went to penalties.
64
And Scotland won.
65
Now, for the most part,
66
Scotland finished third in our simulations,
67
but still retained a 65% chance of making the round of 32.
68
Meanwhile, debutants Haiti finished bottom in over 7,800 simulations.
69
Right, onto group D.
70
And it really didn't pan out the way that I thought it would do because,
71
you know, the USA came out on top in this group 41.9% of the time.
72
And in simulation 656, they made it all the way to the final with an insane route.
73
They beat Belgium, then Argentina,
74
then Portugal, off you go Messi,
75
off you go Ronaldo, and then France before meeting Spain in the final and losing on penalties.
76
Elsewhere in this group, Turkey placed second on average the most times,
77
meaning that Australia finished third.
78
But in simulation 6337, they made it out of the group by drawing every game.
79
But the draws didn't stop there.
80
They continued drawing all the way to the final,
81
winning on penalties each time.
82
They even won the whole thing.
83
If you win the tournament,
84
but you haven't won a game in regular time, does it count?
85
Yes, it does.
86
Now, Paraguay, Group D did not come out that well in the simulations at all,
87
finishing bottom 39.2% of the time,
88
which is a bit of a surprise for me.
89
Not fun for Paraguay, but Group E was fun for everyone because you've got Germany's clear favourites,
90
and that was evident in the likelihood of them winning the group being 56.9%.
91
But then you've got Ecuador and Cote d'Avoire,
92
who have underrated squads, in my opinion.
93
That is the group of death,
94
clearly, right now ecuador especially considering some of the talent
95
that they have in their squad are definitely a team to keep an eye out on
96
when it came to the simulations
97
and the simulations really reflected this giving ecuador the highest probability of finishing second
98
but cote d'avroir weren't that far behind them either
99
so this group could well be one to keep an eye
100
on for unpredictability now interestingly curacao i think that's how you say it finished bottom 70% of the time, not great.
101
But in one of the 10,000 Sims,
102
they actually reached the final.
103
But it was heartbreak for them against Portugal in the final.
104
But I think you'd take that, right?
105
Right, let's talk Group F because it is another one that could throw up some surprises.
106
The Netherlands came out on top in terms of probability of finishing first with Japan frequently coming second.
107
But Sweden in this group,
108
they threw up some interesting results.
109
Sweden qualified for the tournament,
110
of course, despite not winning any qualifying matches thanks to the playoff of course.
111
But in simulation 5,471 Graham Potter's side met England in the final and even won it on penalties.
112
The irony if an English manager that takes over from Thomas Tuchel wins the World Cup against Thomas Tuchel.
113
No, this can't happen.
114
Very good.
115
Let's move on.
116
Lastly, Tunisia were the unfortunate team in fourth spot most of the time.
117
Group G may have been the most cut and dry when it came to first and last.
118
You've got Belgium frequently coming out on top at 54.5% chance of winning the group.
119
Meanwhile, with only 1% chance of winning the group, it's New Zealand.
120
So with this happening, it meant
121
that it was a bit of a head-to-head between Egypt
122
and Iran for the second place spot and on average it went in Iran's favour,
123
meaning that Iran's most likely opponent in the round of 32 was frequently the USA.
124
Yeah.
125
Group H featured the biggest favourite to win their group,
126
with Spain pulling in a 73.9% chance of winning their group.
127
That's the highest percentage of any team in the tournament totaled.
128
And in one simulation, Spain even scored a total of 32 goals.
129
For context, the current record is 27,
130
set by Hungary in 1954.
131
And to finish second, there was also quite a clear favourite in Uruguay at 47.7%.
132
And therefore, that didn't give much hope to Saudi Arabia and Cape Verde,
133
apart from this simulation.
134
3,931 because Cape Verde won the whole tournament while scoring only four goals.
135
They scored twice in the group,
136
drew 0-0 in the round of 32 and the round of 16,
137
winning both on penalties.
138
They then drew 1-1 with England in the semifinal,
139
going through on penalties, and then drew with France in the final and won again on penalties.
140
Now, I've chosen my group of death,
141
but group I is considered the group of death because there are three heavy hitters in this group.
142
And despite this, the simulations massively favoured France on average,
143
giving them a 62% likelihood of winning the group.
144
So it became a shootout for second place between Senegal and Norway.
145
Now, on one hand, you've got a team who had a perfect qualifying record in Norway.
146
And on the other hand,
147
you've got Senegal winners or losers, depending on whatever.
148
Finalists, they were in the final of AFCON.
149
But Senegal came out on top and the simulation did struggle to separate them with a big majority.
150
So keep an eye out for their game on the 23rd of June.
151
It will be blockbuster.
152
Apologies to Iraq.
153
The quality in this group proved to be too much,
154
making them the likeliest to be by a distance the team that finishes bottom.
155
Group J features the current winners.
156
But now Messi is four years older.
157
So surely he won't win another, right?
158
We don't know yet when we played,
159
but it does bode quite well for the group stages for Argentina
160
because they were the most dominant team when it came to winning the group.
161
And we'll have a look at Argentina's chances of winning the whole thing a little bit later.
162
But whilst we've got you,
163
and surely this is the last opportunity for this, Ronaldo versus Messi.
164
Who's better?
165
Let us know in the comments.
166
But the final between the two,
167
it did actually happen 68 times in the 10,000 simulations.
168
Elsewhere in the group, the simulations were really splitting hairs deciding between Austria
169
and Algeria with Austria coming out on top by just 1%.
170
But ultimately this made it very difficult for Jordan who finished bottom more than two thirds of the time.
171
And then finally, before heading to England's group,
172
we took a look at group K.
173
Now, Portugal came out on top,
174
unsurprisingly, and in simulation number one,
175
the first one, which I don't know if that carries any more meaning.
176
It probably doesn't.
177
They're all equally valued.
178
They made it to the final without conceding a single goal.
179
But they lost on penalties to the Netherlands.
180
And this group for them was quite straightforward,
181
really, because Colombia finished second in 40% of the simulations,
182
with DR Congo and Uzbekistan fighting out for third.
183
And now, England's group.
184
I know, this is what you've been waiting for, eh?
185
Well, it's actually quite disappointing.
186
In almost every group, the favourites have won it with big majorities.
187
But England, for some reason,
188
it wasn't that straightforward because Croatia finished first 47.2% of the time,
189
whilst England finished first 46.8% of the time.
190
Surprisingly, the simulation also favoured Panama over Ghana.
191
I guess we'll see how it plays out.
192
And all of that factors,
193
of course, into who everyone plays in the round of 32.
194
And so to understand who faces who,
195
we need to take a look at the teams who made it through as the best third place finishers.
196
So who are everyone's most likely opponents for this round?
197
So this is what we've done.
198
We've built a bracket considering the entire 10,000 simulations.
199
And there were some really interesting ties here.
200
You've got England against Colombia,
201
Ecuador versus Senegal, Mexico versus Scotland.
202
Portugal versus the Ivory Coast,
203
Argentina versus Marcelo Bielsa's Uruguay.
204
And that gave us this bracket.
205
But the problem is we're still no closer to understanding who will win the entire tournament.
206
So we took into account every single team's 10,000 simulations and put it into one number.
207
Their percentage chance of winning the World Cup.
208
So in 10th, surprisingly, it was the USA with 4.3% chance.
209
Then only in 9th, I couldn't believe this,
210
was Brazil with 4.6% chance.
211
Morocco were joint with Brazil also on 4.6.
212
Then we have a little jump up to Belgium at 6%,
213
which felt a bit low to me.
214
Croatia, interestingly, were, however, ahead of them with 6.9%.
215
Now the top five is where it gets so interesting because in 5th, Argentina.
216
Only 7% of the simulations favouring Messi's team.
217
The top four, it then becomes extremely close.
218
Interestingly, despite what we said earlier about the group stage,
219
England came in fourth with 8.3%,
220
but only 0.3% above them was Portugal.
221
Then, in second, Spain with 8.7%,
222
giving France the highest chance of winning the tournament at 8.9%.
223
So of course, this is a bit of fun
224
and it's really interesting to see the different narratives that are going to play out.
225
Which narrative do you think you will see at this tournament?
226
Let me know in the comments down below.
227
Now, I use data to find the World Cup's best wonder kids at this World Cup.

練習のコツ
このビデオは、サッカーの試合結果を軽快に解説するトーンで構成されています。速いスピードで話される部分も多いため、shadowing siteを利用して、全体の流れを真似ることが重要です。聴き取ったフレーズを繰り返し発声することによって、英語スピーキング練習を効果的に行うことができます。YouTubeで英語学習を進める際は、まずはゆっくりとした部分から始め、フレーズに慣れてきたら段々とスピードを上げていくと良いでしょう。特に、シミュレーションの内容を言い換えたり、自分なりの意見を加えることで、よりスピーキング力を高めることができます。また、shadowspeaksのように、発音やイントネーションに注目しながら練習しましょう。
シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
