From Neymar’s diving antics to Modric’s tireless running, this world cup has seen it all. The greatest footballing competition hasn’t been short of shock exits as Brazil, Germany, Argentina, and Portugal all were shown the exit door.
No competition is complete without the on-field drama, nail-biting finishes, breathtaking solo moves and … memes.
In that same vein, we present to you our roundup of the best memes from the FIFA World Cup 2018.
English fans have come up with the “It’s Coming Home” slogan. Looking at how far England has come during the tournament, the thought of the trophy really going to English soil doesn’t seem to be surprising anymore.
A photo of English centre-half talking to his girlfriend went viral and became the perfect meme material. The defender himself decided to hand us a laugh or two as well.
The Argentine legend’s antics have always been in the news. And that was the case during this World Cup as well. He’s perfect meme material as you can see below:
Neymar got trolled for his ‘juvenile’ display during the World Cup. He is the player who created the most chances for his team at the tourney, yet these chances didn’t amount to much most of the times. And then there’s that one moment where he just went down in a ‘legendary meme’ way:
And here is that #NeymarChallenge. 14 minutes is a long time and they say VAR wastes time?

The Senegal coach knows how to celebrate. And social media seems to agree.
Alisson burst a balloon and we had unlimited meme supply. Here are a few honorable mentions.
English fans?
Wait for it.
Michy Batshuayi, aka Batsman, tried celebrating Belgium’s goal and it didn’t go exactly as planned.
There are still two matches left before the World Cup ends so expect the meme factory to keep churning out good ones.
