Costa Rica Squad

Costa Rica squad was expected to perform really well after the success in the previous World Cup. The fact that many of its members are still present in the squad for 2018 World Cup makes this hope at least somewhat grounded.

However, the experts, as well as the fans, slowly start to realize that they probably won’t make the same surprise twice. The team had a difficult qualification period and their achievements didn’t improve afterwards.

Costa Rica Squad 2018 World Cup

Looking at the country’s national football squad, you’ll probably remember many of the players if you watched 2014 World Cup, but something isn’t working the way it had before.

• Goalkeepers: Keylor Navas, Patrick Pemberton, Leonel Moreira.
• Defenders: Cristian Gamboa, Ian Smith, Ronald Matarrita, Bryan Oviedo, Oscar Duarte, Giancarlo Gonzalez, Francisco Calvo, Kendall Waston, Johnny Acosta.
• Midfielders: David Guzman, Yeltsin Tejeda, Celso Borges, Randall Azofeifa, Rodney Wallace, Bryan Ruiz, Daniel Colindres, Christian Bolanos.
• Forwards: Johan Venegas, Joel Campbell, Marco Urena.

The situation doesn’t get any better in light of the World Cup opponents that Costa Rica will have to face either, so all the fans can hope is that the experienced players will do their best to not lose their group entirely.

Costa Rica squad consists of experienced players who have performed well in previous tournaments, but their luck must have run out.
