Get ready to be transported back to the electrifying highs and gut-wrenching lows of the 2022 World Cup, because Netflix's upcoming docuseries, Captains of the World, has dropped its trailer, and it's a must-watch for any football fan.

The six-episode series, launching on December 30th, delves deep into the lives and emotions of some of the world's biggest football stars as they lead their national teams through the prestigious tournament.

From the legendary Lionel Messi to the rising star Kylian Mbappé, Captains of the World offers an intimate and unparalleled look at the immense pressure, unwavering determination, and raw emotions that fuel these footballing giants.
