Re: FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States: Discussion Thread
Seems previous World Cup in Qatar has good qualities stadium than United State, Canada and Mexico, I can't imagine what FIFA decision or reason choosing North America because there are football is not popular spot exactly in United State they basket ball are most favorite sport. Talking about Major League Soccer seems not excited yet and FIFA have responsibility later if World Cup matches not excited and stadium full like in Qatar. Have two years later for the host preparing good stadium and seems they have enough team for rebuilding with stadium and infrastructure.
I highly disagree, I believe we will find structures of better quality in the World Cup when it takes place in North America, there were many rumors about the bad quality of the infrastructure in Qatar, specially for the rooms and places were fans were supposed to stay during the tournament. Not even mentioning the people who lost their life building those buildings for the powerful elite there.
In North America there will be more safety, regulation, and freedom to eat, drink and wear whatever people feel like.
Also, in USA and Canada there is a very important population of Latinos who are obviously very passionate for Football, even over Baseball and basketball.
Still far away, the only advantage is that no stadiums will be built, unlike what we have seen with Qatar? I'm curious how the organization will be, logistically it doesn't seem ideal to organize a World Cup in 3 different countries. And the scope is of course also gigantic in these 3 countries, so that is quite a challenge in that respect. But 2026, that's still 3.5 years away. We just finished the World Cup 5 months ago. That someone has had the motivation to make a thread about the 2026 World Cup. The focus of European countries will be on the European Championship in 2024 of course. Who would actually be the favorite for the 2026 World Cup? Perhaps Germany will have put together a nice team again by then. After the failure of the last 2 World Cups.
