5 Players Who Ruined Their Careers Due To The World Cup

5 Players Who Ruined Their Careers due To The World Cup
Like we have said a number of times before, the World Cup is indeed the apex of football, and many footballers around the world would do anything to feature at this competition, even if it’s just once.
But while it being the biggest stage is obviously a good thing, it could also be a bad thing in the sense that it can swallow you up if you’re not careful. We have seen some of the finest players in the world head over to the World Cup and look so average. Some have had their careers ruined or changed completely as a result of this competition.
Let us quickly take a look at 5 players who had their careers ruined as a result of the World Cup.

[@maestri09]

Andres Escobar is obviously the biggest one. But what about Roberto Baggio? He went into USA'94 as the best player in the world. He missed the penalty kick, and was never the same player again--internationally. He stayed on with the national team, though, even as a veteran, but he was never the same.

[@tumbleweedconnection7906]

He also carried his team to the final scoring with only minutes left to tie Nigeria in the round of 16 then the game winner in ot. Scored in the closing minutes in quarter final to beat Spain, and scored 2 first half goals in a span of 10 min to beat Bulgaria in the semis. All this after nothing in the group stage. He wasn't fully fit for the final and people often forget 2 things from that shootout. Of the 5 Italian pk takers, only 2 Scored and even if Baggio had converted his, Brazil would still have won if they made their fifth kick.

[@commodorezero]

Tbh he got the team to the final. He scored 5 of the teams 8 goals. 2 other players missed too.

David Luiz' career was not ruined by the World Cup but his quality of sleep for the rest of his life was probably ruined. Even today, he still plays high-level football and helped Flamengo win the Copa Libertadores. That said, I'm not sure I've seen another player concede so many goals in big games.

oezil wasn't ''shuned'' because he took a picture with erdogan. nor because of his heritage. he was shunned, and rightly so, because he, a ''german'', took a picture with erdogan , and captioned it ''my president''

The Germans proved Ozil’s point by the way they treated him!

[@musiccer7446]

People got unsympathetic towards him because he called erdogan „my president“ at the heights of a strong refugee crisis conflict with many human rights violations between turkey and Germany. Erdogan is an authoritarian and stands against all European values. Özils „alliance“ with him and the fact that he doesn’t sing the national hymn is what made people strongly dislike him. Get your facts right, Özil behaved stupid and I won’t blame any person who isn’t fond of what he said and did

[@noona9193]

@@musiccer7446 it was way before that and the man said it himself "when we win I am German, when we lose I am not" that's clearly shows that he faced racism even before that picture+ his origin is Turkish nothing wrong in what he said and the world doesn't revolve around Europeans to decide what Erdogan is and what he is not just bc he is against your values, at the end he is a president of a sovereign country + Özil wasn't the ONLY one who didn't sing the national anthem, a lot of players don't sing it and it's not the end of the world, stop with these bullshit excuses under every comment about him it won't justify anything

[@SuperLOLABC]

Mustafi and Can are Muslims of Turkish descent too. Why are they still being called up and well respected by the DFB and fans? Because they didn’t go to Turkey under a authoritarian regime and made a political statement siding with the opposing country.

As a player of the German national team, Özil shouldn't have given this demonstration of public support for the Turkish president who internationally known for hus totalitarian way of ruling the country. Özil being sacked was widely supported and reasonible in my opinion. You have to make your choices and Özil did.

I would like to comment that David Luiz did found retribution. Yes, he left Europe to go to the Brazilian League, which on the eyes of some European's means that he will retire on a low notch. However, even thought he lost his prime, he is definitely one of the best Centerbacks here in Brazil, even winning the Copa do Brasil(Brazil's Copa del Rey) and the Copa Libertadores(South America's Champions League), and being one of the key players for Flamengo. David might have lost it all after 2014, but his carrer is not ruined for good. Also, fun fact, Flamengo did a 7-1 themselves in Libertadores this year, so he felt what a Black-Red team doing a 7-1 feels like.
