Qatar as the host clearly carries out its duties well, and indeed as a good society it must obey the rules made by the host, and in my opinion Qatar is very good and the service is very good as it can provide free food to the audience and I think in this case Qatar has the privilege and succeeded in hosting a good world cup.

However, it is natural that there are pros and cons, because after all, each country has different habits and customs and it will definitely feel foreign to people who are not Qatari citizens if there are rules like those made by Qatar, but for Qatari citizens. Of course they will be familiar with the rules made by Qatar.

However, I see that the United States, Canada and Mexico will definitely provide good service because usually the world cup hosts always give their best performance.

Of course, we have seen an interesting match, namely the Indonesian team against Iraq and got a 5-1 result and I see that there seems to be tension among the Indonesian players because if you look at the FIFA rankings, of course. very far apart and in my opinion Indonesia's performance is not good, and it is very unfortunate that Jordi committed suicide and I think this is due to the impact of the Indonesian players' lack of confidence or because they are nervous about facing Iraq.

but I see that Indonesia also still has hope and Indonesia is not a weak team because in Southeast Asia they always perform well and are often in 2nd place. I think in the next match Indonesia will give its best performance against the Philippines.

They did not, you just saw something on TV and that's why you think Qatar hosting was perfect because of the quality of the stadiums or because of what you saw on the TV but the fact about Qatar is they spend lots of money while they didn't need to and Qatar killed many workers just because of building the shiny stadiums you can see in this country which is not good for any country.
Also, they didn't give freedom to people who came to visit this country for the World Cup and this was another dark side of the story about the Qatar World Cup.

I do agree that USA will not have a chance to win, I get that they may want to, but that doesn't change the fact that they won't be able to. Its clear that their football team is nowhere near that level, they may had some lucky draws that allow them to go up the groups, but world cup is not a place that would allow people to end up going to finals with just luck, that's not going to happen.

I think the best thing to do right now would be just avoid wanting something like that, and just focus on other teams and fun. I understand USA fans will want to see their team go to finals, but if that prevents them from having fun watching other teams then its not going to be alright and it will hurt their fun levels a lot when they inevitably lose.

Qatar definitely did a very good job hosting the World Cup. And it was really offensive how a lot of people tried to push their own agenda onto a country that is daily conservative. I am sure if the same thing happened to America, they would have acted like something was wrong with the other other countries. When a country says that public act of sexual urges, act of sex, etc is frowned upon, I think everyone should respect that.

But of course, America, being the country that thinks they are the center of this world, and the people being dumbasses, they didn't abide by the rules.

You are right, there are many immigrants who have entered illegally, and it is not only because of the World Cup, but what they offer them as a nation to go work, and as good people enter, bad people also enter, so in this order of ideas I am one of those who thinks that when entering one of these countries they have to do it legally, because if someone like Donald Trump wins the presence of these people who entered like this, they will carry out a massive deportation and that will be very hard, some people are going to bet on the apis, but others are not, others what they do is start looking for problems, something like what there is in New York, for that reason people in the US are very reluctant, in fact the population as many The jobs are very different, and they are making the time very cheap, I think it is already around 10usd when before they gave 18-20usd per hour, so these things are the ones that affect significantly, those who are in New York are what I see that it is more difficult for them to be able to work.

The World Cup is just something additional where the Country will be , the people who Really go for the World Cup, they are sure to enter with their tickets and with their visa in hand, and do not stay in the country, for some they know that Immigrants have everything more difficult, more expensive and harder to be able to do things, because Basically things can go in the sense that it is a developed country where the professional careers that they lead are Sometimes not very well regarded, and according to this well It can be emphasized that more and more people are entering, the steps these people have to go are very hard, they walk through countries, jungles, it is something that seems very hard to me, and to enter they no longer do it so illegally they give them a period of 2 or 3 years where they can file their case at the expense of a judge where they are told what time they can give them or if they should Immediately go to their Country.

Regarding the next World Cup, we have some information even if this World Cup will be in the next years.
It's not the first time we've seen multiple countries hosting the World Cup and that's not something now, we are going to have America as the first and main host of the 2026 World Cup and two other countries will just help the USA.
However, I don't know which matches are going to be in America yet.

I'm not familiar with hosting in FIFA so is this the first time that the continent Americas is going to be the host for the 2026 World Cup? Isn't only one country allowed so how come this one is special that they have 3 countries to host one event. I don't know if this match is going to be fun but I am sure that the events that's going to be hosted in this World Cup is going to be spectacular. What is this Hell group that you're talking about? Is it like some kind of group seed where it contains all the favorites and strongest teams? I feel weirded out that US is going to be a host because football isn't really a big deal there so I don't know how to feel about that besides being happy because we can see Americans trying something new and introducing football to the people of US who always call the sport a soccer.

America, Canada and Mexico will try to improve the quality of their football, there are still several years to do it even better. Having the status as host will certainly provide an advantage for the three national teams, but this will not automatically change their status as the favorite team for the event. We have seen the teams that are favorites in every World Cup, Argentina, Brazil, Germany, France and Spain are very favorites by most people.

There are many interesting things about the upcoming 2026 World Cup, one of which is the addition of participants to 48 teams, which we have never seen before. Of course there will be lots of teams to watch out for, especially if join the Hell group.

Are you sure you posted this in the correct thread? I was looking for the conversation you are referring to, but there seems to be no extensive political talk here.

Both Argentina and Brazil have two very important games in their CONCACAF qualification. But I was puzzled when I saw that this is not just round robin in the qualification, but home and away match for all teams, which is quite hefty as that sums up to 18 qualifier games per team. That is quite a lot.

I wonder if the final rankings of the CONCACAF teams in the table also have an impact on the group drawings later on? There should be some difference between the first and sixth rank I guess. Argentina still looking strong and with a win they would really be rushing away from the rest there.

Biden seems like his health could be a big issue by the end of the next term, that's the issue. When people end up with voting just because they hate Trump, I wish there was a better candidate, but when you go for reelection, it's obvious that you are going to be fine and be the nominee. Lets be honest, neither have their health at  good level, by the looks of it Trump could have heart attack any moment now too, but at least he looks healthy.

So, the question is, would you elect a person who is unfit to be president because of his shitty character, or someone who is fit to be president but not healthy and may die? This should never be the case for an election, I really miss the old ones, I am glad that I am not American and don't have to vote, to be fairly honest, I would be maybe not even vote. I mean if I was forced to vote, I would still vote for Biden, because Trump is a terrible human, BUT not with love, I mean I would prefer not to vote for Biden either.

Well.. I agree that they are not as strong as France or Argentina. But they are currently ranked as the top team from CONCACAF Confederation. Also, let's not forget the fact that 84 out of a total of 104 matches in the FIFA World Cup of 2026 will be held in the United States. So obviously they will be having the home advantage as well. Well.. we are talking about 2026, so there is a good chance that they will slip down the rankings by then. But even then, opponents (especially those from the UEFA region) needs to be cautious about them.

I think two European countries can reach the semi-finals in this tournament. The World Cup in Europe is very different from the World Cup outside Europe. For example, in the 2006 World Cup hosted by Germany and the 2018 World Cup hosted by Russia, the semi-finalists were all Europeans. In contrast, in the 2002 World Cup played in South Korea and Japan, South Korea played in the semi-finals and Brazil became champions. At the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, Uruguay played in the semi-finals. In the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, Brazil played in the semi-finals and Argentina played directly in the final. In the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, Morocco played in the semi-finals and Argentina became champions.

European countries have hosted the World Cup eleven times. Except for the 1958 World Cup, Europeans have been champions in all of them. Similarly, until the 2010 World Cup, no European country had won a World Cup played outside Europe. Since then, Germany has been champion in the 2014 World Cup.
It's hard for me to predict the World Cup in America, but I expect big surprises in this tournament in North America.

For this matter, I think it's still too early to talk about whether they will be able to compete or not. Because they benefit as the host who has already confirmed 1 ticket to play in the World Cup. Unlike the other countries that have to follow the qualifications, and in the qualifications we can see the extent of the strength of each country, because they are required to play all out in each match, to be able to ensure they will be in the 2026 World Cup.
The preparation is very mature maybe that's what they do certainly to prove that they can also compete later.

Its not really important who will be Unite State's president when FIFA World Cup 2026 begin, regarding will be the next president of United State between Joe Bidden or Donald Trump I think FIFA have declared with their host teams of World Cup 2026. I don't think have difference viewed if each one between Joe Bidden or Donald Trump will make the same thing to make World Cup 2026 will be success. Any criminal cases is not allowed what ever of host World Cup but next edition more friendly with alcohol drinking allowed in stadium, difference when last edition of World Cup 2022 in Qatar many not allowed such as alcohol drinking until not allowed for living in the same room if not not marriage.

By the way, tonight my country Indonesia will start the journey for World Cup 2026 trough qualifier round, hope get first three winning points to make easily on next match.

@Belarge I don’t think that US has any advantage in this tournament because they don’t possess a squad of player’s that plays competitive football week after week. Furthermore I just hope that they at least put in a spirited display for their countrymen otherwise there’s a big possibility that they could be eliminated early in the tournament too and thus I don’t think that wagering on them makes sense just because they’re the hosts.

If we look at the age, it might seem like Donald Trump and Joe Biden are both similar, and a few days later Donald Trump is also going to face the same health complications. But I genuinely think that is not the case. Because we all know how much Nose candy the Biden family takes  . I am talking about Hunter Biden. I am pretty sure that everyone saw that video of Hunter Biden being high on cocaine. Things like that can make anyone feel a lot older. And I think that is what has been happening with Joe Biden, to be honest. I am pretty sure that the situation situation is really bad. Only the news is actually pushing the narrative of Joe Biden being the better president. Everywhere else people are fed up.

Talking about the US having an advantage in tournaments? Does such things still exists these present days? Because I'm confused, everything is judged concerning how better one can perform and how terrible they can be if they don't stand firm regarding their form this season. The United States of America is a popular country and currently World Power but they do not stand a chance in competing against European countries that have everything a team ought to possess. I can mention few good players in US, they're Christian Pulisic, Folarin Balogun, Malik Tillman and finally we have Weston McKennie that are exceptionally brilliant. Amercia have good squad that are balance and able to fight in elite tournaments.

LOL.. In all probability, United States will end up just like Qatar during the 2022 FIFA World Cup, failing to win any of their group matches and failing to progress to the next phase. Anyway, their FIFA ranking is quite good and now they are ranked 11th in the table. But I don't give much importance to these rankings and don't think that they will perform well during the tournament. And right now they are the no.1 ranked team in CONCACAF confederation, even ahead of strong teams such as Mexico and Costa Rica.

Is the US team actually prepared to win their tournament?

Historically, the home team always has an advantage. Could they use this opportunity?

I think they currently don't have players of the caliber of Landon Donovan, or Clint Dempsey. Those were probably some of the best players in the best era of US football.

But maybe I'm missing on some young talent, anyone knows some of them?
