Well, it is known that the soccer World Cup has been held since 1930, this is a great tradition, it is something that must be maintained, no matter what is believed, the exciting thing about all this is that this great event is celebrated every 4 years, I If I want more countries that have never gone to a World Cup to do so in the next one, it's the first time that 3 countries will organize it,it seems perfect to me, it's something new, if Qatar is new, what these 3 countries are doing is something that I like it even more, you know more things and their culture.

If you care so much about tradition, then you may restrict the FIFA Football World Cup to just 13 participants and 3 confederations. Tradition can't be maintained everytime. Situation needs to change according to time. Back in 1930, there were only a few dozen independent nations. Most of the African continent was under the control of colonial powers, so was South and Southeast Asia. In order to maintain the tradition, you need to ask these countries to represent under the flag of their colonial master, which is illogical.

I am very curious to see India in the next World Cup, I think it is a unique opportunity that they have, now that there are new quotas so that some countries can go and have the opportunity to be in a World Cup for the first time, that It fills an entire country with hope, which means that if it is probable that I can go to this World Cup, the truth is that I would like my country to finally go to a World Cup, I think that the feeling of listening to the country's anthem in a World Cup is a unique feeling, it makes many cry, I do want these teams that have never been to qualify.

My support for the decision to have 48 teams instead of 32 is precisely because countries that have never participated in a World Cup can participate for the first time.
I think that we can have 3 or 4 new teams in the next World Cup, but it would be great if there were 5 or even more new teams. This could help strengthen soccer in many countries.

I don't know Indian soccer that well, but it would be very interesting to see a country with 1.4 billion people cheering for their team.

That's the way it is, I also think the same, for me the fact that there are 48 teams will give the World Cup another hue, at least a World Cup will last much longer and it won't end so quickly, that's one of the things I like the most, because waiting 4 years to see the World Cup and it's over so quickly that leaves a bitter taste because we as good fútbol fans always want to see more and more, in fact there are some fans who plan the World Cup to ask for permission from their jobs and to be able to enjoy the world cup in complete comfort by going on a trip to accompany their favorite teams and not miss a single detail.

I have no doubt that this World Cup will be a game changer.
First time that it will be hosted in 3 different countries and will also have a significant amount of participants...
Well... I have no doubts that it will be beneficial for the host country and also for the countries that never had the opportunity to participate in a world cup before.... well, I don't know, I hope that everything goes well with this new structure for this tournament event

Yes, I also hope that this tournament (and other innovations from fucking officials) will be a game changer.
I hope that the Super League will finally appear in Europe and all these garbage tournaments will fade into the background (and they will either be there or die quietly), and the balance of power will be the same as the NHL - the rest of the world when no one cares about the World Championships, the Olympics, etc.

I am not sure if I understand you correctly, but you want to get rid of any tournaments like the World Cup and the European Championship and replace it with a Super League where the best nations compete with each other throughout the year? If that's the case I think I wouldn't like that at all. Having this huge event every four years is fun, I am always looking forward to it and am excited about it. If you have game after game the whole year in a Super League mode, what's the appeal of that? Right now the whole thing is good, group stages and then we get some knockout games. Or did you mean anything else?

Well, it is known that the soccer World Cup has been held since 1930, this is a great tradition, it is something that must be maintained, no matter what is believed, the exciting thing about all this is that this great event is celebrated every 4 years, I If I want more countries that have never gone to a World Cup to do so in the next one, it's the first time that 3 countries will organize it,it seems perfect to me, it's something new, if Qatar is new, what these 3 countries are doing is something that I like it even more, you know more things and their culture.

I don't want to say much about what FIFA wants to gain by increasing the number of participants in the World Cup, or they make the World Cup in 2 years. There are positive and negative things that will certainly be debated later. No I mean when they base this on the money they're likely to get of course it's going to put a bad image on them. However, there are things to benefit from, in this case the opportunities for countries that have never participated in this biggest football party will have even greater opportunities. Of course all countries want to be part of the World Cup, that's what they dream of.

I have always welcomed the decision by FIFA to increase the number of participants. Given the narrowing gap between the established and emerging teams, I believe that this is a decision that can be justified. That said, conducting the tournament every 2 years is a big no-no. We can wait 4 years to watch the world cup, and if it is being held every 2 years then it will be the same teams and same players, and things will get repetitive and boring. BTW, I am happy that the FIFA profits are increasing. I know that all of that money will be spent on popularizing football (unlike the case with cricket, where a large part of the ICC revenues get stolen by corrupt administrators).

If FIFA can be able to manage the tournament in every two years it is possible for the tournament to take place in every two years. FIFA makes decision based only if it will favour them to handle. I think this time the number of teams that will be participating in the tournament increased because it is something that can be managed.

I believe it's not possible to handle the tournament every two years for FIFA, because it demands a lot of preparations. Furthermore, the scenario on soccer industry doesn't change a lot in 2 years, meaning it's very likely the results and performances will be very similar from the last edition.

Also, that is why there are so many different tournaments such Olympic games, Pan American games, internal championships on each countries... So the public doesn't get bored by a single event becoming repetitive.

When things takes place common, the interest upon the same gets lost. World Cup getting organised for every 4 years is really good and this keeps the expectation for another four years of time. In between different formats of franchise leagues is more than enough.

When it comes to infrastructure development, it takes years for new host nations where football isn't that popular or not much played. The previous FIFA World Cup was conducted in Qatar. The preparation for the event started during the year 2010. So, to get prepared for the event also requires time.

I see the 2026 World Cup, which will be held in 3 countries and a larger number of participants, can bring many benefits to the host and participating countries. First, the 2026 World Cup will be a major global event and can have a positive impact on the host country's economy. These events can generate large inflows of tourists, increase employment and stimulate investment in infrastructure and the tourism industry.

Increasing the number of tournament participants can provide an opportunity for countries that have never participated in the World Cup to take part and develop their football talents. This can help increase the popularity of this sport around the world and improve the overall quality of soccer.

However, I hope that the 2026 World Cup will run smoothly with the new tournament structure, bring benefits to all the countries involved, and become a great sporting event for the whole world.

I'm not 100% sure about the 2026 World Cup format.

There will be so many teams that the tournament itself might feel a bit like a qualification.

For example, with the new team allocations for the world cup, South America might get 7 out of 10 teams qualified. That means that in the World Cup itself up to 70% of the teams will be there. That's a bit too much really.

The sad thing about the 2026 world cup and the world cup after this in which they use the same rules is, there are many teams in the world cup and some teams should be in the world cup with the old systems and the world cup qualification will be meaningless because most of the team in the world can be in the world cup even if they have a not strong team for the world cup.

Making money like this as an organization is not a trouble, it is what you should be aiming at and they are doing the right thing about that part. The issue is doing it in illegal ways, like we all know for a fact that Qatar bribed fifa to do it, and even though it had one of the best finals of all time and got so many views, that doesn't change the fact that it was a shame and definitely looked terrible for most of the organization.

We should be looking towards having some sort of culture that has real football in it to do it. I know that looks like a bad way of saying "west should do it" because west has better football organizations, but africa has it too, and that is not west, I wouldn't be against doing it in africa, or even asia has some great teams, but not Qatar. I am not even in favor of USA, sure they are doing better lately, but they do not have the culture for it.

I might not understand what you said very well but what's mean USA doesn't have the culture for it?
USA already hosted the 1994 version of World Cup and although the lack of popularity, at the opposite of the American rugby, that version broke many records at that time.
Nowadays, things are different, since soccer gained some popularity especially when the people see their team fighting very good in the last version of World Cup in Qatar.
BTW Qatar was accused of the bribery thing but nothing was proved yet? No? Is it hard to detect how they paid them? I don't know but when I see many criticism about workers rights and I read some bad behavior of the other nations such as France regarding their own workers in Paris 2024 Olympic games, I wonder if that is jealousy or political thing more than real thing. I don't know, just asking questions.

Just that it will be challenging to visitors and fans, because it won't be possible to go round this 3 countries just to watch the world cup games. Except one will only watch only the games that will be host in a particular country. If I will be in Canada and the games I'll wish to watch is in USA and Mexico I miss it because it will take fund for me to reach this countries.

this is why the 2026 world cup is a very new thing and will definitely provide a different experience for supporters because they are forced to travel around 3 countries

every fan will definitely not think about the problem of distance especially diehard fans because there are also many fans from other continents who will be spectators at the 2026 world cup live

Indeed, the FIFA authorities do a great job with football. So far this organization has not been found to be involved in any corruption. For which we are seeing so much progress in the world of football. Hopefully we will see some better surprises in the next World Cup.

FIFA is very well known for having corruption scandals, you can see it here:

2015 FIFA corruption scandal

I recommend that you read this article because it is very rich in details of the fifa corruption scandals, it tells the whole story of fifa and its operations, well I have no doubt that the ways in which countries are chosen to organize the world cup world and a strange shape. I've seen everything that leaves me shocked, last year it was in Saudi Arabia, where they had many restrictions due to religion, something unbelievable in a bad way, now it's going to be in Mexico, I wonder what's next

I won't be surprised if they say that after mexico there will be some strange country with strange customs, it looks like fifa organizes an auction in which each country makes a bid, the country that makes the highest bid organizes the world cup, honestly, looking for the number of countries, when will many countries in africa organize the world cup? why do they set high ticket prices? why does a country with strange laws and customs apply to organize the world cup? why does the world cup have to be every 4 years? why not change it to 3 years? 4 years is a long time, at this rate not all countries will be able to organize the world cup

All the responsibility for organizing will be the responsibility of the country chosen to organize it not FIFA because FIFA will only choose the country and FIFA will be the party that receives the most money from this tournament, but I think that will never happen unless FIFA wants to lower the quality of tournaments that they hold because they make it more frequent so it's not something to look forward to anymore.

How can you be sure? because no institution involving huge sums of money will be completely free from corruption, and football is always developing in Europe and the American continent, which are really passionate about football, but out of the many countries in Asia, only a few countries have advanced football, the rest is very far below the quality of the countries that played in the World Cup.

I predict that in the future we will see world cups with even more participants and that these competitions will be held more often, probably every 2 years. Grin

FIFA really knows how to get income and every tournament they hold instead of adding tournaments, increasing the number of participants will also be just as profitable and maybe what you think will also be implemented by FIFA because they are not satisfied with every money they get from this tournament, so carry it out every 2 years, but the question is whether 2 years will be enough for countries that have never hosted the World Cup to prepare the supporting infrastructure for holding it because there will definitely be more stadiums that must be provided due to the greater number of participants so only countries who have huge funds that are able to organize it or this will be a tournament held by several countries.

If FIFA can be able to manage the tournament in every two years it is possible for the tournament to take place in every two years. FIFA makes decision based only if it will favour them to handle. I think this time the number of teams that will be participating in the tournament increased because it is something that can be managed.

FIFA also needs to have enough as an organization and tournaments like the world cup can be good options for them also since they accepted multiple countries hosting the world cup and there will be more countries in the world cup in 2026, they aim to increase the community of the world cup. Increasing the community will give more income to FIFA and maybe that's the main reason for them to make these decisions for 2026.

I don't want to say much about what FIFA wants to gain by increasing the number of participants in the World Cup, or they make the World Cup in 2 years.

The next world cup will be having a record 104 matches, compared to 64 during Qatar 2022. BTW, FIFA is expecting a revenue of $11 billion from the tournament, which will be an all time record if realized.

11 billion dollars Shocked

That's a lot of money, this makes me wanna ask how fifa actually makes their money,?
Is it just by selling tickets to those who would want to attend the stadium and view the match live, or are there other ways through which the make their money aside advertisement?

Cus I am of the opinion that if it's just by selling tickets and from advertisers, making 11 billions dollars would be pretty impossible in my point of view, except the tickets are sold at an exorbitant high price which only rich men and women can afford.

I have wondered how they will spend this money since this time, in comparison to another world cup, they will certainly earn much more money because there are more teams participating and more matches in the world cup. I believe FIFA should raise the price for teams, spend some money on food for those countries who need it, as well as build stadiums and schools for those countries.

Fifa is definitely the biggest organisation and football is the most played sport in the world, next world cup is going to be more interesting interms of new teams and new matches. I hope fifa includes teams from Asia as we have less Asian teams in last world cup .

In fact, as far as I know, for the next World Cup 2026, FIFA has already increased the number of Asian national teams that will participate, if I remember correctly, Asia will have 5 representatives at the next World Cup.
However, as I said earlier in this discussion, I do not think that a larger number of participants in the World Cup will increase the quality of the competition, and in fact I think that we will see more bad and boring matches.
Of course, due to a greater number of matches, FIFA's earnings will increase, and that is obviously the most important thing in the whole story, not some sporting motives or reasons. Considering the enormous organizational and financial demands, fewer and fewer countries in the world will be able to organize a world cup, which is also bad news for all sincere fans.

I agree, this definitely won't increase the quality of the world cup and it can even decrease the quality of the games because there will be more weak teams from Asia or even weak teams from Europa they don't actually deserve to win the world cup normally. It is possible that once the number of teams participating in the world cup is increased, there will be a greater interest in watching the games and a larger community as a result.
