2018 FIFA World Cup Special: Stars And Their Supercars

June 15, 2018 by Online Car India

Mesut Özil, Germany

Of late, the German national team has been an absolute juggernaut, destroying all comers on the way to World Cup glory the last time around in Brazil, which, of course, included that iconic 7-1 hatchet job on the host nation. It is difficult to pick a striker since they spread their goals around across their riveting attacking force. Instead, we chose Arsenal’s assist machine Mesut Özil as the one to watch. If Germany are going for glory, Mesut will definitely be pulling the strings from midfield.

His Wheels: Mesut’s garage offered rich pickings, but there’s no car that so typifies the devastating grace of the big MÖ like the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. Prominent eyes, flashy doors, and a capable 6.2-litre V8 heart, can’t fault that.

Engine: 6.3-litre naturally-aspirated V8

Paul Pogba, France

The dab-man cometh, and he’ll want to put a disappointing end to the season with Manchester United behind him and focus on the Cup instead. We know Pogba, on his day, is a world-beater. In a knockout competition with stakes as high as this, though, he’ll have to deliver in every game if he wants to stamp his authority on the world stage like the famous French midfielders that preceded him.

His Wheels: Pogba is all about the flash, so, of course, he has a Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge, a car that’s classy, cool, and competent all rolled into one attention-grabbing package.
