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 🏆

Fucking hell...that car 😆 🤣

They blew the budget on the car props! .. lol

Flipping heck. Mexican pitbull!

Love the bright colours

Bus ticket guy along for the ride

My 8 year olds excitement has just peaked at the labubu’s

He's a bit of alright singing

Terrible ,I can't believe how bad this is .

We need a commentator like on Eurovision

my head whipped at the tv, but its neither cardi b or bad bunny - obvs they aren't Mexican but they are American no?

I’m very jealous of everyone in the stadium - it looks like enormous fun!

desperately!!

The costumes are very colourful.

SHAKIRA?

They have missed a trick not having this as an option

Is it Shakira ?

Is it actually Shakira??

Oh yeah looks like her

I think its Shakira. and burna boy

Literally just told DH to sit down and watch because it’s giving major Eurovision. I agree commentary would be ideal right now.

those hips don't lie!

burna looks awkward there 😄

She looks well to be fair. She is no spring chicken in relative pop terms

will this be the world cup anthem then? havent heard it on radio 1

This is not a very world cup-ish song, it's a bit depressing
