#3 A perfect blend of youth and experience

Isco Alarcon and Sergio Ramos

A perfect team is the one, which is a perfect blend of experienced players as well as young, emerging talents. One such instance was the 2014 World Cup-winning German national team.

That team had veterans such as Miroslav Klose, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Philipp Lahm along with bright future prospects such as Toni Kroos and Mario Gotze. In that regard, Spain can be termed as a completely balanced team.

At one hand, the Spaniards have Sergio Ramos, Gerard Pique, and Andres Iniesta. These players were instrumental in Spain's road to world cup glory way back in 2010. These players have a huge amount of experience and they know what it takes to perform during crunch situations.

On the other hand, the team also consists of Isco, Marco Asensio, etc. who are regularly starting games at big clubs such as Real Madrid. These players have huge potential and can walk into playing eleven of any football team around the world.

Not all the contenders for the World Cup have such a perfect balance of youth and experience, the prime example of that being the current French international team, and the team can count themselves lucky to have such a perfectly balanced squad.
