FIFA WORLD CUP 2026 - DISCUSSION AND WATCHALONG THREAD ⚽️

[mumofoneAloneandwell]

Wasn't sure where to put this, so ive put it here for now, as its where I put the Arsenal Premier League win one.

I'm really looking forward to the World Cup, and want an England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 win (although I am of course behind Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿!)

I've got the BBC sport notifications turned on, and will likely watch with the BBC, rather than ITV.

I'll be watching my matches from home alongside my dd and cat, who are both uninterested!

Anyone fancy joining me? Will you stay up for the games of the country youre supporting?

Supporters of all countries welcome 🙂, expect football chat and banter, favourite goals/matches, fun facts about countries etc, what we're doing in celebration etc.

Happy viewing 🏆

Have it Mexico! Arriiiiiibba!

Oh that little girl in the wheelchair 😢

Just like the Paris Olympics did 😆
im supporting Mexico. I’ve been away so my bunting is going up tomorrow

The stadium singing 🥰

Anthems much better than the rubbish DNA song.

Seeing them singing away is quite inspiring isn’t it!
Not like the England team mumbling away through our anthem!

Yeah that's true

I'm very leftie liberal but really think that the English lads should sing the national anthem.

Time for a top up! Cheers everyone x

I’ve opened some South African wine! 🍷 ..
Not rooting for anyone really , but it’s the World Cup !

It does look very humid and misty over there.
The ovens don’t work that well when it’s high above sea levels. I knew a few people who lived in Mexico . Took ages to even cook a pizza apparently

Forgot to buy dd her pot noodles 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ - now thats me having to make dinner 😫

We've got tequila 😂

Tequila ! Ice and a slice too I hope ?
salt ?

Had fajitas and Corona for dinner, couldn’t find any Mexican wine so had a cheeky Spanish……I will be an alcoholic by the end at this rate.

Not sure I should do tequila on a school night

I will have to try and track down some English wine ( or Perry ) for next week! Definitely a nice Spanish wine for their games as well as a World Cup football chart as well.

I’ve got two wall charts, bunting and flags, a couple of England shirts and a Sweep world cup t-shirt

That goal was always coming

Get in!

Come on Mexico!

Quick start for the Mexican team !

Youngster clapping and squeaking
He’s waited so long apparently (quarter of his life since last one)

The football WhatsApp emoji has turned into a World Cup football

if that hasn’t been mentioned

I live near a vineyard that produces some decent vino. Rutland Vineyard if you want a recommendation.
