UEFA nations have won 12 FIFA World Cup titles, while CONMEBOL nations have lifted the trophy 10 times.

Despite having far fewer member associations, South America has remained remarkably competitive for nearly a century. Europe currently leads, but the gap is still surprisingly close.

Which confederation do you think will dominate the next decade of World Cups?

The Golden Boot has been won by some of the greatest goalscorers in football history—from Kempes and Ronaldo to Kane and Mbappé.

Who do you think will finish as the top scorer at the 2026 FIFA World Cup?

One result flipped, and football history changes completely.

From Ghana in 2010 to Morocco in 2026, there are some fascinating "what if" scenarios that never happened.

The average resale ticket price for the 2026 FIFA World Cup Final at MetLife Stadium has reportedly reached $11,117, making it more expensive than events like the Super Bowl, NBA Finals, the Masters, Wimbledon, and many other major sporting events.

Football is already the world's biggest sport—but are ticket prices reaching a point where the average fan is being priced out?

If you had the money, would you actually pay over $11,000 to watch a World Cup Final live, or would you rather enjoy it from home?

Curious to hear everyone's thoughts.

From his first senior trophy in 2005 to an incredible collection across club and international football, Messi's career has been filled with iconic moments.

Looking at all these trophies, which one stands above the rest?

🏆 2022 FIFA World Cup?

🔵🔴 First Champions League?

🇦🇷 Copa América?

🏅 Olympic Gold?

Or another trophy that means more to you?

I'd love to hear different opinions.

Lionel Messi finished the tournament with 5 Player of the Match awards, ahead of:

🇬🇧 Jude Bellingham — 4

🇫🇷 Kylian Mbappé — 3

🇳🇴 Erling Haaland — 3

🇧🇷 Vinícius Jr. — 3

Do you think these awards accurately reflected the tournament's best individual performers?

Who deserved more recognition, and who received too many? 👇

From 2002 to 2022, every World Cup had at least one unexpected semifinalist:

🇹🇷 Turkey (2002)

🇵🇹 Portugal (2006)

🇺🇾 Uruguay (2010)

🇳🇱 Netherlands (2014, considering their pre-tournament expectations)

🇭🇷 Croatia (2018 & 2022)

🇲🇦 Morocco (2022)

But in 2026, the final four are simply the top four teams in the FIFA rankings: 🥇 Argentina (#1) 🥈 France (#2) 🥉 Spain (#3) 4️⃣ England (#4)

Does this mean football is becoming more predictable, or have the strongest teams simply raised the gap over everyone else?

Spain's World Cup journey is unique.

🇪🇸 World Cup titles: 1 (2010)

⚽ Best finish before 2010: 4th place (1950)

🛡️ 2010 champions after conceding only 2 goals

🏆 Won every knockout match 1–0

🎯 Only team to lose its opening game and still win the World Cup (2010)

The 2010 squad wasn't built on high-scoring football—it was built on control, patience, and possession. Their style changed how many modern teams approached international football.

Question:

Do you think Spain 2010 is the greatest tactical national team of the modern era, or would you choose another World Cup winner? 👇
