World Cup Underdogs vs. Favorites: Score Trends

I remember sitting with my dad, glued to the television during the 2002 World Cup. We were die-hard fans of a nation that was, frankly, not expected to go far. Yet, every match, every live score update, brought a surge of hope and disbelief as our underdog team defied expectations. This personal connection to the unpredictability of the World Cup, where giants can fall and lesser-known teams can make history, underscores the fascinating dynamic between favorites and underdogs in football's biggest tournament. At XSMN Live Score, we delve into how these trends have played out over the years, comparing them to other major sporting events and analyzing the technological underpinnings that shape our understanding of these upsets and predictable victories.
