English player tax.

It would have been €150m if he was called up for the WC.

 

Hakimi busts a gut to make the overlap for him there. You can see the defender hesitates to commit to Brahim once he sees the overlap.

Must be a dream for a winger to work with offensively.

 

Yeah Carreras overlapping was a dream come true for Junior

 

I don't think it will be a snooze. Both teams have enough to deliver an amazing game. We (Morocco) have more and more doubts. 3 key players are injured (Mezraoui starter LB and Ezelzouli starter LW got injured today, and Aguerd is a huge doubt), add to that the LB and the LW subs are also injured. So the whole left flank is injured and doubtful as of now.

I'm so excited to watch it. I fully expect the national anthem to give me goosebumps.

His contract termination became official today, making him a free agent.

Darwin Nunez is expected to leave Al-Hilal this summer after being frozen out of Saudi Pro League games following the arrival of Karim Benzema.

Brazil also had an easy draw after the group stages. There was a rumour that they threw away 98 to be given an easy draw in the next world cup.

 

I don't believe that but damn that was a weird final; only one side was playing that night.

 

To me he is the English Busquets. A travesty that he isn't starting at the World Cup let alone not even on the plane.

It's a premier league fee, but he is a true DLP that is immaculate and vertical on the ball. To me he walks into any midfield in the world except maybe PSG.

🚨 Somali referee Omar Artan was appointed by FIFA to ref in the 2026 World Cup, after he was awarded as the BEST AFRICAN REFEREE in 2025 .

However, the USA immigration authorities have DENIED him entry into the country, immediately kicking him out.

Unbelievable! Shame on you Fifa for allowing US to keep being the host nation under this administration.

 

It's going to be the worst WC on record; constant news of players, fans, etc. being detained for hours, overpriced tickets, and a country with a track record worse than both Russia and Qatar.

 

It’s like Nazi Germany hosting the 1936 Olympics.

 

More like a regime. Millions voted for him. Twice.

 

I much prefer these tournaments when one country hosts them. It's pretty wild that this WC is a joint venture from two countries that are massive in size. It probably has to do with the burden of cost and infrastructure I'm sure.

 

48 teams so I expect way more one sided games in group stages than we are used to in the World Cup. Admittedly, that wasn't the case when Euros got expanded to 24 teams, but don't feel that'd be the case with 48 team World Cup.

 

very few compelling group games. There are 3 that look good; the rest look pretty uninspiring

Brazil v Morocco
France v Norway
England v Croatia
