As I mentioned in one of my previous posts, USA is one of those countries which favor illegal immigrants over legal immigrants. If you apply for a legal visa, you need to wait for 3-4 years to get a hearing. An easier route is to travel to Mexico and then jump the fence over Mexico-US border. Every year millions of illegal immigrants take this step. Now I don't know whether the Americans will ease visa rules for the FIFA World Cup of 2026. If they don't do so, then I don't expect a large attendance from third world nations such as India and Indonesia.

Yes, this is true, but there is a logical explanation for this - many residents of third world countries after entering the United States will "get lost" and stay there illegally. By the way, I don’t know how it is now, but earlier, for everyone entering the US legally, vaccination (from covid) was mandatory, and for illegal immigrants who crossed the border and demanded citizenship/asylum, there was no such requirement  Grin Thus, it was safer to enter the US illegally.

There are many people who think letting America host the 2026 world cup was a wrong decision and that they will have problems visiting this country to watch the World Cup games but I disagree and I think since America got the experience of hosting other great tournaments, they won't disappoint us and we are going to see a better world cup than what we saw in Qatar.
I don't think any other country can organize the World Cup in such a brilliant way in Qatar. The amount of money and initiatives they have spent around just one football world cup is not usually seen in other countries. Qatar finished the 2022 World Cup in good fashion.
It is not possible to enter America as easily as it is possible to enter other countries. When the World Cup is held in America, I hope that the American government will stabilize the rules for the World Cup visitors only.
The Qatar World Cup holds a unique place in football history. The amount of money they have spent around World Cup football is truly commendable and FIFA President Gianni Infantino has already acknowledged it. He also mentioned that in the World Cup in Qatar, each team has been accommodated in the very close to the stadium because of this player can reach early to their room, which would be very difficult to do in any other country. He thinks that even if the United States, Canada and Mexico make similar efforts, it will not be like Qatar. But they are trying. These issues came to light on May 17.  2026 Football World Cup logo was officially unveiled there. For those who haven't seen the World Cup 2026 football log yet, I've attached it.



Thanks for this log, it's interesting.
As for the world cup in Qatar, I think that from the financial side it was all excessive and unnecessary.
Qatar built a lot of stadiums just for that world cup, but most of those stadiums they will never need again and it's actually a waste of money.
Obviously, the sole purpose of all this insane spending of money was to change the image of an undemocratic and totalitarian country and raise its international reputation and prestige.
How many foreign workers died building all those big and unnecessary stadiums in very difficult climatic conditions? FIFA and Qatar completely covered up this very unpleasant news for their reputation.
Unfortunately, for FIFA, money has become the only criterion when organizing world cups in football.

It is also possible that most of the matches will be held in America and the remaining small or group matches may be held in other countries. The FIFA authorities can do something like that the final semi-final knockout stage matches will be held in America. Actually, it cannot be said right now, we hope to understand everything in the future.

Why possible, when all the stadiums are already known and most of them are in the US. I think when all the country teams will be knows, the drawing will be done so, that it will be convenient for countries to have games in specific countries. The South American countries will play in Mexico, European probably in US, African either in Mexico or Canada. And after prelims all the games probably be in US only.

True, but still I think it's best to have the world cup in a single place. There are so many issues that appear when you host it in multiple countries, and also each country has it's own rules, and laws, visas, etc.

And at the end of the day most of the games will be played in the US anyway, so I'm not sure why Canada and Mexico wanted to be there. Maybe Canada wanted to finally be able to host it, but the other two already have done so in the past.
At least to me FIFA is giving a signal to other countries, they are basically saying we are not letting one of the most powerful countries around the world to hold the world cup on their own and they need to have partners to even have a chance to do it, and if any country wants to host the world cup on the future then they need to find partners as well in order to do so, so I think that from now on multiple hosts will become the norm and we will not see a single country hosting the world cup for a very long time.

I think that when it is hosted in a single country is better but usually FIFA has done so when the host country has some other countries near it that love football also,I remember in 2002 this was the case and the World Cup was held in Japan and South Korea and it had a lot of contention because of the referees favoring the host countries in a clamorous way,Italy lost 3-0 to South Korea something which was unimaginable until then.That is why I am more in favor when a single country is hosting the World Cup rather than holding it with other partners which can bring us to this non grateful situations where big teams are out of the play because of referees favoring home countries,it is much better when it is just one home country. 

I agree about letting one country host the world cup instead of three countries but in fact, since we have more counties playing in the 2026 world cup maybe that's why FIFA let three countries host the world cup however, there won't be three hosts for the world cup, the country hosting the world cup in America and two other countries are just helping America.

If the next World Cup is held in a few countries, it will actually be a novelty. This will give football fans a great travel experience. Besides, we will see some new things through organizing. The FIFA authorities should take the responsibility to ensure that we see something great from the World Cup in Qatar as they need to innovate with the times.

I think it would certainly help smaller countries or countries with no economical resources to host the whole event to still be part of it. They would not need to invest so much in infrastructure, security or places to keep tourists happy, since all the event would eventually move to a neighbor country.

For example, Nepal and Mongolia are counties that by their own could not host a World Cup but they could if decided to co-host with China.

Of course, all of it would not be that easy, there are neighbor countries which have political and ideological disagreements among them, which would not allow them to coordinate such big event as orderly and quickly as it is supposed to. Whether we like it or not, when talk about more than one country, we need to think of geopolitics.

Exactly, I think since we had an economic crisis in most of the countries and they don't have good situations it was a wise move to let a country like America host the world cup because they have enough potential to host the great events and even if Mexico and Canada were not co-hosting the world cup America could easily host the world cup by itself.


I doubt that this has anything to do with the economic crisis or with the pandemic as the bid to become the World Cup host was made in 2017. I think that the USA along with Mexico and Canada had the strongest application in the field. I don't know whether this trend that there will be joint co-hosting will continue in the future, but I am still an advocate of this decision. There are so many countries in the world and if you want to give most of them a fair chance to host a World Cup anytime soon, allowing for co-hosting makes a lot of sense.

Yes, this is true, but there is a logical explanation for this - many residents of third world countries after entering the United States will "get lost" and stay there illegally. By the way, I don’t know how it is now, but earlier, for everyone entering the US legally, vaccination (from covid) was mandatory, and for illegal immigrants who crossed the border and demanded citizenship/asylum, there was no such requirement  Grin Thus, it was safer to enter the US illegally.

I am 100% sure that in terms of organization in the US everything will be at the top level. In terms of the quality of the competitions held (probably in all sports), this is the country No. 1 and, of course, they will also hold the World Cup at the highest level. But the problem with a visa is a problem of a different order, and there will definitely be dissatisfied people who, for one reason or another, will not be able to get it.

Hopefully, the FIFA council can find some ways to resolve this kind of problem because World Cup being a business, they sure want as many people as possible to see and watch the event because that will also mean that there's a lot of money that will flow to their pockets. Although I doubt that they can really fix it as this problem already falls down to the US and Canada's jurisdiction because safety and security must be ensured first. 

But I'm sure it's up to America and Canada about how they want to organize the people who visit this country to watch the world cup games, FIFA let America host the 2026 world cup and that's why I'm sure they will find a way to solve this problem about getting a visa to this country and that's not the first time for America to host a great event like the world cup.
In the past America have hosted various events, when it comes to FIFA it gets the world's attention. Other major events will be mostly based on specific continent, so organising those events in a grand manner isn't a big thing for a country like America. When it comes to FIFA, it is to be considered about the travel, accomodation and particularly the cost. Just because more people are getting into the country everything could get hike in value. These are the responsibilities the governing body should consider so that people from all around the world reach America to watch football.

Another relevant news: The FIFA President announced that the teams will be grouped by regions, to avoid long trips, at least in the initial phase.


Source and more info HERE

In my opinion this was already expected, but now it is official. We still don't have more information about how it will work and how many regions will be divided, but this already removes the doubt of those who were worried about the team having to cross the country to play a game in a few hours.

And just to remember, this is the map os stadiums so far:

Last night FIFA revealed the logo it will use for the 2026 World Cup.


What do you think?

Having an actual image of the trophy as part of a logo seems a bit silly.

That's a basic mistake in graphics design. It won't scale down nicely. Any logo should be a vector image.

Also, the number 26 looks obese basically. Maybe they are subtly trying to say something  Cheesy

Yeap, that logo looks cheap. I am not a designer, but that looks cheap, when probably thousands were spent on design. Using black and white seems very simple. I think that is gonna look bad on posters at sunny days. And 26 looks shitty Cheesy What is it about? Year 2026? 26th World Cup? 26 team participate ? Coloured version destroys my eyes Cheesy Really bad combination of colours, as if I am on drugs or have licked hypnotoad from Futurama  Grin


Lol oh God this logo is too much for eyes literally too many sharp colours striking our eyes and senses , if fifa wanted to represent countries or teams they should have opted for some pastels which might be soothing for eyes.
Anyways very creative and new logo .
And yes LGBTQ that is going to be a discussion in upcoming World cup.

https://www.fifa.com/fifaplus/en/tournaments/mens/worldcup/canadamexicousa2026/host-cities <-- according to this, each city has its own colour and all 16 cities are presented by colour on that logo. But some colours are barely visible. Either we have just a small picture and on banners that "26" would look better, or designers have really failed. Without knowing, that each colour represent each stadium/city, many would think that this is a LGBTQ related banner.

LOL.. looks as if they wanted to compensate for the anti-LGBT themes at the Qatar edition, and therefore created a rainbow themed logo. 2026 edition of the FIFA World Cup will be held in North America and it is expected that FIFA will receive around $6 billion in revenues from this event. They could have spent a few hundred USD to create a good logo. Any of the freelancers would have created a better design. Anyway, I still believe that these logos are very preliminary and FIFA will finalize on some good designs as the tournament approaches.
