The Best And Worst Haircuts Of The 2014 World Cup

With the entire world's eyes on the FIFA World Cup for a month, players of all skill levels not only will try to bring home the hardware for their country, but will try to stand out in anyway possible. Haircuts have only gotten crazier this year it seems, and the hairstyles at the World Cup were… creative. Let's take a look at the best and worst doos of the 2014 World Cup.

Arturo Vidal – 7/10

The creativity on this cut is next level for Arturo Vidal. The Juventus man always has crazy haircuts and lines while playing in Italy, but he really brought his A game to Brazil. The several layers, plus the lines boarding the mohawk is probably something only a professional soccer player could pull off...nonetheless we'll give Arturo some credit and give him a passing grade.

Asamoah Gyan – 6/10

"Hey everyone, guess what number I am!"

Danijel Pranjic – 4/10

A mohawk has never looked so terrible and out of place.

Kyle Beckerman – 8/10

We’ve never been that into dreads, but Kyle Beckerman’s are just so perfect and fit his scrappy style of play. We’ll give the, uh, fresh out-of-bed look a thumbs-up in this case.

Paul Pogba – 9/10

It’s so crazy…we love it. Keep doing you young-player-of-the-tournament Paul Pogba.

Rodrigo Palacio – 0/10

“I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.” C'mon man, if you're going to rock the rat tail you've got to score that goal in the Cup final.

Neymar – 7/10

"The Palmtree” is Neymar’s go-to look, but during this World Cup the golden boy went for a golden look. Neymar and only Neymar can pull this off.

Samuel Eto’o – 3/10

Paying homage to Nelson Mandela’s haircut is admirable by Eto’o, but this doo is horrendous. Maybe Samuel was feeling rebellious after Mourinho tossed him to the curb after questioning his age.

Raul Meireles – 9/10

Meireles’ badass beard and mohawk combo is intimidating and legendary. Compared to Robert De Niro’s Taxi Driver look, Meireles’ hair did far better then Portugal at this World Cup and we expect him to spend most of his offseason with Hell's Angels.

Serey Die – 7/10

A mohawk is one thing. A dyed mohawk is another, but an off-center dyed mohawk!? We’ll take it.

Bold move. Bold 'cut. (Photo:@iFifaWorldCup | Twitter)

Cristiano Ronaldo – 8/10

Yeah yeah, we get it, you can put crazy zig-zag lines in your hair and still make it look cool.

3 hairstyles in 3 matches. This was the most popular for Cristiano Ronaldo. (Photo:@squawka | Twitter)

Oliver Giroud and Mathieu Debuchy – 8/10

Hey Mackelmore called, he wants his haircut back.

Andrea Pirlo and Mario Balotelli – 9/10

Two hairstyles for two completely different players. They didn't change anything for the tournament, as Pirlo’s legendary flow is pure class, while Super Mario’s frohawk is a staple for the Italian striker. Don't fix what ain't broke!
