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 🏆

LOVE IT 😍

I've got Qatar 🇶🇦 vs 🇨🇭 Switzerland

But dd has gone to sleep so I might try and join her and then set an alarm for 2am!

Luckily the Scottish game is on today/tomorrow morning so people won’t be tired/throwing sickies on Monday. I’d love to stay up to watch it but got to be up before noon tomorrow.

Why so many empty seats?! Such a shame.

Ticket prices?

If people don't like football, they could of course scroll on, rather than bore everyone telling us they dont like it 🤣

BIL is Scottish and is in Miami . He is looking forward to match and has his kilt ready.
He has tickets for Scotland/ Brazil later in the month.
I am going to bed but will probably wake up and catch some of the match…am a rubbish sleeper! Everything crossed for Scotland 🤞
One son in Oz and looking forward to Oz match later.

I’ll manage Brazil v Morocco. Not sure I’ll be there for the Scotland game.

Oh wow Qatar, didn't expect that.

That’s made for an interesting group. Top 2 teams have both dropped 2 points in games they should have won.

Mon Scotland!!!

Same here. I think Scotland have to win this to have any chance of getting out of the group stage.

The Brazil line-up is like an FPL team 😅

Well…

lovely goal

It was. Brazil napping there a bit.

Morocco have been worth it so far. Brazil not been much of a team.

Where are Brazil?

Wow!

That’s more like it.

Fantastic! Come on Scotland

Come on Scotland!

Anyone up? I slept through it but glad its 1 nil Scotland

I’m watching! Not been to bed yet 🙈

🥳 Chuffed for Scotland!
