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 🏆

Not for me on android!

Mexico are doing well here

I’ve got a questionable strawberry and lime liqueur with a Cremant top on the go.

I’m not getting a World Cup on Wattsapp on my iPhone

Oh thank you re the vineyard! Will look it up.

I feel really deflated now after that shite opening ceremony 😄

I think I was really expecting it to be like the Olympics

Have just tried it on WhatsApp I’m getting the World Cup football

On android?

Not as disappointed as my manager is going to be when he discovers this game is in Mexico. He was looking forward to seeing how bad a US one is tonight.

iPhone

😄😄 his time will come, saturday! - me too, I reckon they're gonna be shite

That'll be it, iPhone always updates first

I didnt even get the shiny Spotify logo that was promised, but iPhone users got it straight away

Android here, and it's a world cup football for me

Oh 😳 no idea whats going on for my Samsung

Will restart my phone

Will be back in an hour, love island is calling me 🤭🤭

What do you have to type in to get a world cup in wattsapp?

I typed in football and then selected the picture of the football that popped up next to it on the keyboard.

Come back @mumofoneAloneandwell
It's a penalty!

It was a rubbish penalty

Because it was a free kick

@RafaistheKingofClay yes it was 😂

@Davros type in football ⚽️ and that ball will automatically change into the WC ball

Oh missed it 😄

Who for and did they score??

Ohhh do you mean this one

I thought it was the logo we were talking about 😄

Don't worry, it wasn't, it was a free kick 🤭🙈
And it was rubbish! 😆

I dont think my photo will load but I think i have it

It was also a rubbish free kick
