The 2026 World Cup will be hosted by Canada, Mexico and United States - known collectively as the United Bid - after they pipped Morocco in a vote held by the FIFA Congress on Wednesday.

The latest edition of football's flagship tournament begins in Russia on Thursday, with the host nation's clash with Saudi Arabia kicking off a month of tournament action.

In four years time, the World Cup will head to Qatar, whose victorious bid was shrouded in controversy.

I really wished Morocco won the bid

Russia hosted this one, America is hosting the next one.

A fucck you to Putin.

US convinently did not qualify for this one, it would be interesting if Russia qualifies for that one.

Canada and the USA ? More than Half of the Nigerian fan base won’t return. A perfect opportunity to ‘ja comot for Naija’ if you ask me. They’ll suddenly go missing

Wow!

ok

No surprises! Morocco 'suddenly' became Africans because they wanted to host the World Cup. Recall they pulled out of the AU and refused to host CHAN (or was it AFCON?) because of their fear of Ebola? A united bid between the US, Canada and Mexico would help to mitigate age-long tensions between the US and Mexico, and probably further cement US-Canada relations...it is a good strategic choice. I like it!

Morocco all the way

Is it not going to be inconveniencing?


Shuffling the 3 countries.

Will be watching the match live from Canada by God's grace.

Morocco always bidding without winning

Damn America, Canada and Mexico they have spoil my dream of "Morocco hosting the world cup, after they have joined ECOWAS, I'll then easily travel to watch the tournament without visa wahala"

congrate to dem african should try harder next time

One day Morocco will host. I strongly believe this.

Opportunity for Nigerians to migrate

Amen! God will make it happen for you

There are 2 teams in a football match

Each team has 11 players

Each male player has 2 "balls"

There are 22 players on both teams

22 players each with 2 balls

That makes it 44 balls on both teams

Plus the ball on the field = 45 balls

How the 45mins for half time was created

Wow i go surely watch am with my son in saskatchewan.

wow

Football should not be mixed with politics, FIFA will lose its value if it continues on this path.

Sure.. I didnt blame FIFA because is a business venture. The money realized from the North America side are far way above the Morocco

OP seems confused with the post topic


Why are u making it confusing

Let's start and finish this one first

President Aminu Okechukwu Oluwadara Trump is just winning everywhere, anywhere, anyhow. Good one

NIGERIA HAS THE MONEY TO HOST THE WORLD CUP.

But for the greed of our political class good things from the International community seems to be bypassing us as a nation.
