July 12, 20186 yr Author FIFA should just go with 64 teams instead of 48 for the 2026 World Cup. Everything would be even and don't need to have 16 3 team groups.
July 12, 20186 yr ^^ I don't know if they considered that or not, but I imagine it will eventually get to 64. I think with the expansion to 48 all the proposals had to fit in the same time frame as the current World Cup. I think you would have to make the tournament longer to fit 64. It would certainly be easy to make it in though.
July 12, 20186 yr Author They're already going to have to add a week for the Round of 32 for the 48 team World Cup. For the 64 team World Cup all you have to do is double the 32 team World Cup schedule and add a Round of 32. It would just add another match overall and the teams would need to win 5 matches in the knockout round instead of 4 to lift the Cup.

July 14, 20186 yr I assume the third-place match comes from the idea of the Olympic Bronze medal match, but there are no bronze medals in the World Cup, right. It's not needed, but they won't get rid of it because of money. For a player, it has to be hard to get excited about it after missing out on the final.
July 14, 20186 yr Author Faretta, Model, Rooting for Croatia “I have been a fan since I was born! But I have been watching football since I was 8 years old. I am that girl who knows all the soccer terms and watched every game from beginning to end. No phone calls and no talking allowed while I watch a game! Root for Croatia because our team plays in a really connected way, they know each other so well and know how to work as a team. They have everything in terms of skills and strategy, but they don’t just kick the ball—they are playing football with their hearts. There is nothing that can unite Croatian people like soccer can! The coach really knows where every player belongs, so he puts them on the positions where they are the best! We are a small country of only 4 million people, but we are the ones who always get recognized as one of the best. Nothing ever destroyed our faith no matter how hard times can be. I am really proud of our team and how they have represented us to the world. These guys deserve this!” https://www.vogue.com/article/world-cup-2018-france-croatia-who-to-root-for

July 15, 20186 yr Author Don't care if France wins, I like a lot of guys on their team. Croatia winning is an awesome story and better for football, Lovren can get fucked though.
July 15, 20186 yr I guess the only way this could have been better for France was if it was played yesterday instead.
