I agree on the quality. The Indian team is ranked 104th and they don't even reach the last round of AFC qualifiers most of the times. China is marginally better, and are ranked 80th in FIFA ranking. Two and half decades back, China was included in the top-40, but in due course the quality of their football declined. The problem here is that if you exclude these two countries, there goes 40% of the world's population. I am not in favor of giving direct qualification to these two countries, but there should be some compromise solution which increases the probability of them featuring in the world cup.

India team is not superior not only with World Cup level but also can't qualify to AFC Cup 2024 in Qatar, but not only with India but also China have spent much money last than three years ago and many star player joined with Chinese Super League teams but can't bring positive impact for China can speak more how to qualify in FIFA World Cup.

For Asian team qualify to FIFA World Cup seems dominate by the same teams national on every time World Cup, between Saudi Arabia, Australia, South Korea, Japan and Iran are the most appearance national teams participants in FIFA World Cup.

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.

I didn't know if India could even be a part of any world cup in the history of this national team but if want to be a part of the world CPU they have to rework and develop their team because currently, they have to race with other Asian teams like Japan, South Korea, and Iran for to a be a part of the world cup and maybe will need to do more investment in football and have a stronger team for the next world cup.

I am not sure if the experiment would be beneficial - when one country host an event they are solely responsible to take the advantage of it
How would this be helping 3 nations. It is beyond my understanding.

Well, the world cup is now a massive event, actually it's probably the largest sporting event in the world.

I think it's fine to have more than one country hosting it. We've had it before in Korea-Japan 2002 and it worked fine.

As the number of teams increase I think it makes sense to host it in multiple countries.

Also in these weird times we're living in, this also adds the ability to move matches around if things go wrong in one country, instead of cancelling the whole thing.

Three different countries hosting the The world cup won't be bad idea as the way lots of us think. The world cup tournament is growing and the 26 world cup will be accommodating many teams, this is one of the reasons it will be hosted by three countries to make it easy and Interesting.

No, a friendly match at the World Cup? Cheesy

How are you even going to pull that off? People would freak out if during such a tournament the FIFA would also have friendly games in between. That makes no sense.

The World Cup qualifiers are already quite fair and the national teams have a lot of games to prove they are good enough to participate. Just look at Italy and how they screwed up during the last qualifications. They even had the chance to make their way to the World Cup in the play off games against North Macedonia and they failed again. I think enough is enough and it doesn't matter whether the team had a long tradition or not. Italy didn't perform well enough and so they didn't earn their starting spot at the World Cup.

The competition for becoming a host is always fierce and the only thing i don't like is if money decides in the end whether a country can host the tournament or not. It should always be the best application, not the country with the most money.

Whoa! Dude, I concur. World Cup fun match? Like sailing into shark-infested waters. FIFA's thoughts? Do they want us to go crazy or make the game more exciting? I'm starting to think FIFA's leaders are aliens. To spice up football, imagine small green creatures rushing around. If so, a friendly game is just the beginning.

You're right. World Cup qualifiers are tough. Teams are trying to qualify for the tournament. Right, Italy? Their "long tradition" doesn't entitle them. They can't. No more.

I concur regarding the host nation. The best people should be chosen, not the wealthiest. However, bribery and corruption may spice up the game! Imagine if the host country had to beat the other countries in hopscotch to keep their spot. A memorable World Cup

Taking a quick look at this report from top Asian teams and how they performed during the recent world cups I can say most of the Asian teams even Japan as the first team on the list and first team of Asia mostly failed to pass the staging phase of the world cup and this shows us the gap between Asian teams and Europian teams except for South Korea where they could even be in the semi-final match for once. That's the reason to say increasing the number of teams in the world cup can't be good because there will be more weak teams there.

I just think the reason why FIFA is also adding World Cup participants besides making football more evenly distributed globally is also the economic factor with more and more countries participating will increase the number of countries that want to buy broadcast rights from existing matches, we know that FIFA is becoming one of the sports organizations that is always aiming for big profits especially the world cup is a valuable tournament, so seeing that there will be more and more weak teams participating in the world cup later is not the concern of FIFA because that is the concern of the participating countries.

To me, it seems like FIFA added more national teams mostly because there are many national teams in the world that could never be a part of the world cup in history and that's why they added more teams to let them give a chance to a part of the world cup. but this will surely decrease the quality of the world cup and it can be a reason for many strong teams to have easy games against the teams they couldn't be a part of the world cup normally.

I have a different thought to this matter though, I personally feel that FIFA decided to add more national team to the 2026 world cup solely because the tournament will be hosted in three different countries, and having just a few national teams divided amongst this three countries that would be hosting the world cup simply means that each of these countries might not have enough games to host, this i believe is the reason why FIFA felt the need to add more national team to game, so that each of this countries(Canada, Mexico and USA) will all have a good number of team playing on each.

But then, I still agree with your point though, adding more teams have given opportunities to some teams that have never gotten the chance to play in the world cup before.

I'm not sure they have the skills to qualify, but who knows, in the next world cup the standards will be lowered to allow more teams qualifying.

Maybe it will be possible to see them, I'm not that convinced though. There are still other teams that might grab the extra spots before them.

We'll have to wait and see how they perform in the field.

The current coach of India is Stimac, a Croatian football expert and former coach of the Croatian national football team.
He has already raised the level of play of the Indian national team, and he has also introduced a serious selection of players and improved the training of the team, and also improved the overall organization of work.
The first concrete results are already visible because the Indian football team started to win in the World Cup qualifiers, but they were still too weak to win the first two places in their group, but in the end they were third in their qualifying group.
For greater progress and eventual participation of India in a world cup, however, much more work and time will be needed.

India has not participated in the world cup competition for longtime I don't expect much from them in the 2026 world cup, but it will be interesting to watch them how they can be able to cope with strong teams that have Already have good record in performance.

It is not about being stronger, it is about the idea that the privilege to host a World Cup should engage the hosting nation as much as possible as it is what I said it is: a privilege. This way some fairness can be preserved for as long as the right to host the World Cup isn't won due to corruption.

I support the idea that World Cup events should be debated by a committee made up of members from several countries and not by a single institution with centralized decision-making power.

I recognize that FIFA's role is important and essential for world football, but events of great impact such as the Football World Cup should have their issues debated and resolved in common agreement with several representative countries, it would be more democratic, fair and probably it would greatly reduce the corruption that we all know exists within FIFA.

That doesn't solve the problem. Even if you have sort of an assembly of a lot of people who could then vote for a nation to become the host of the next World Cup, how would you prevent those voters from being bribed in advance? Corruption is so hard to fight because voters would be willing to vote against their own countries and people as soon as the price is high enough to suppress the last bit of morals inside of them.

Having more people to vote on the outcome would at least raise the price for corruption. Perhaps there should be some probabilistic procedure where 200 people get to read the applications, all of them have to cast a vote but only 20 of them will count based on a predetermined selection procedure. Like a lottery here on Bitcointalk that is based on the hash of a future block.

The basic idea would be to raise the price for corruption in any way possible, but I don't know what the right way could be to go about it.

I think every country that didn't qualify for the World Cup should be given one friendly match in the World Cup. Then the teams will develop the spirit of World Cup and work hard to qualify for the World Cup. This issue needs to be considered by the FIFA authorities.

The only way India can qualify for the FIFA World Cup is if the sub-regional qualifiers come to effect. If FIFA decides to have one slot from the South Asia region, then there is a chance that they may qualify. Out of the 7 member associations, India is currently ranked 106, while all the other teams are ranked below them. In fact none of the other teams are even in the top-150. Maldives is at 156, while the two populous nations (Bangladesh and Pakistan) are ranked 192 and 195 respectively. Previously, Afghanistan used to be a part of South Asia, but now they have moved to Central Asia.

In case of China, it is even more difficult. There are quality teams such as Japan and South Korea from the same region, and it will be extremely difficult for them to qualify from the same grouping. China is a part of the East Asian Football Federation, and as per ranking they are much below Japan (20) and South Korea (25). Currently China is ranked 80th.

Judging from the geographical and weather conditions, it seems that the South American zone is very supportive for national teams from Europe, many national teams seems not comfortable when Qatar as the host of FIFA World Cup 2022 because have hot weather and changed several league schedule for World Cup matches held on at the end year.

Still not official confirmed yet with FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States will held on middle years after several European League competition ended or FIFA keep try begin like the same previous FIFA World Cup 2022 Qatar, but most effective with FIFA World Cup start after all league ended around June until July not on December like in Qatar.

As far as I know, the 2026 World Cup will be held on the same date as previous World Cups, excluding Qatar, which would be from June to July.
The dates speculated are from June 8 to July 3, 2026.
Fifa should soon announce the official dates for clubs and confederations to prepare.

The Qatar Cup was the only one played on this different date because of the climate. In the traditional months of June and July it would be practically impossible to hold the matches due to the extreme heat, but this should not happen again.
But you are right, it's not confirmet yet.

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.

I hope the committee appointed by FIFA on those countries (Canada/Mexico/United States) is not corrupted. Because honest people will work perfectly and don't want to get intervention from the parent organization (FIFA). but of course, honest people will be got a consequence if the committee doesn't comply with what FIFA wants like being fired halfway. Maybe we won't be surprised to hear that at the next event if have a substitution of the committees.

I highly doubt there is a "need" for corruption in this one. I mean it is a very rich nation along with another rich nation with a big football culture nation all got together and that means that we are talking about enough money to have stadiums that are world cup level and enough attention that it does as well as you can hope for. Plus, all the hotels and roads and extra whatevers would be fine as well, there won't be an issue.

I believe that corruption only is valid worry if the nation that won it has absolutely no football background and doesn't even have any money spent on it while just spending the money on getting the world cup. If you are a team that does well enough, then I guess you could win it without worrying about corruption.

However, as this news is being reported from many media outlets, it is likely to happen. But I believe whatever decision FIFA takes will be happy and convincing to football fans all over the world.

There were many factors that make FIFA to changed the date of 2022 world cup tournament at Qatar. The Coruna Virus played the major role for the changing of the date. When the virus was heating the whole world in 2020 and the first and second quarters of 20221, FIFA made a pronouncement that the date of the world would be shifted and I believed that was why the date was changed. Then also considering the weather at Qatar, although I have not been to Qatar even the world cup tournament I watched it from home TV in my country, so I might not really know the weather condition in the country. Probably FIFA also looked at that angle too.

The change in the calendar of the world cup caused by the Coronavirus had a positive effect on Qatar, as they had more time to remodel the stadium. If they were to play the game during the normal time, Qatar would have needed to prepare the stadiums faster, but in 2026, the host of the world cup won't have this advantage, so I guess all three countries are preparing themselves just in time for the world cup.

That is indeed one of the reasons but that's just the minor ones as Qatar can even remodel their stadium in a much earlier stage without hasting the process because they had 12 years to prepare for it. That was their preparation time, imagine? So, re-modeling their stadiums and Covid-19 wasn't the only factors why the schedule was moved to November.
The reason was that the temperature is quite high if it were to happen in regular schedules in June-July as the temperature in summer can soar up to 40° C while in winter time which was in November to December, it's only 24°C-25°C.

The coronavirus was certainly the main reason for changing the calendar of many major world competitions, including the Olympic Games in Japan.
However, the decision to hold the world championship in Qatar at the end of the year was made long before the Covid 19 pandemic, solely because of the weather conditions in Qatar during the summer.
It was clear to everyone that the heat in the summer in Qatar is a major limiting factor for holding the World Cup in football and that is why FIFA, at the request of numerous representations, made a historic decision to hold the World Cup in winter for the first time.
Covid 19 was no longer a significant factor in 2022 anyway, and the decision when the world championship will be held in Qatar was made at least 8 years before.

Judging from the geographical and weather conditions, it seems that the South American zone is very supportive for national teams from Europe, many national teams seems not comfortable when Qatar as the host of FIFA World Cup 2022 because have hot weather and changed several league schedule for World Cup matches held on at the end year.

Still not official confirmed yet with FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States will held on middle years after several European League competition ended or FIFA keep try begin like the same previous FIFA World Cup 2022 Qatar, but most effective with FIFA World Cup start after all league ended around June until July not on December like in Qatar.

In fact, so far maybe FIFA has not officially announced that the next World Cup will be held in these three countries. However, as this news is being reported from many media outlets, it is likely to happen. But I believe whatever decision FIFA takes will be happy and convincing to football fans all over the world.

There were many factors that make FIFA to changed the date of 2022 world cup tournament at Qatar. The Coruna Virus played the major role for the changing of the date. When the virus was heating the whole world in 2020 and the first and second quarters of 20221, FIFA made a pronouncement that the date of the world would be shifted and I believed that was why the date was changed. Then also considering the weather at Qatar, although I have not been to Qatar even the world cup tournament I watched it from home TV in my country, so I might not really know the weather condition in the country. Probably FIFA also looked at that angle too.

Yeah, the sad thing is that FIFA is rich enough that they do not need to be corrupted, it's the people that are corrupted at the top, or at least it was, can't talk about the current one but they did not reverse any decision neither for legal scare.

However, if you pick people who are honest and true to their word, then you shouldn't be worried about corruption because FIFA is not corrupted as an organization, it's the people in that organization, so you fire them and get honest people and FIFA would not be corrupt at all. Paying a few million or even a lot of million to people could sound easy, but you need people who will say no to bribery like that, hard to find but they exist.

A very serious delusion. FIFA = corruption. You can change people as much as you like, but if the system is created as corrupt, then the result will be corruption. Wherever there are officials who dispose of the fruits of the labor of others, there is corruption. Football is a business, business should be run by businessmen and not corrupt officials. If you build a system that does not allow corruption, then you will not have it even if there are dishonest people inside it. And what we are seeing now shows precisely the systemic problem.

I hope the committee appointed by FIFA on those countries (Canada/Mexico/United States) is not corrupted. Because honest people will work perfectly and don't want to get intervention from the parent organization (FIFA). but of course, honest people will be got a consequence if the committee doesn't comply with what FIFA wants like being fired halfway. Maybe we won't be surprised to hear that at the next event if have a substitution of the committees.

Is it for the first time World cup is split in three countries?
Or has it ever happened earlier? I think it won't be a successful experience.

If the World Cup is held in 3 countries I think the fans and supporters will suffer a bit. But FIFA is always trying to find innovation, perhaps by hosting the World Cup in these three countries, we will find something new and everyone will be able to enjoy it.

But I think I didn't understand why they had to choose three countries instead of one, I mean during the last world cup Qatar hosted the whole world cup games they had no problems while Qatar is a smaller country and they had to build stadiums for the role cup and not America or Canada both got more potential and they could even host the whole world cup in one country instead of three.

This innovation is just to give an exciting turn to fifa world cup and there are chances of it to be a total disaster as how the fans will move freely in between countries with their supporting teams . This is a big question mark and this will be solved in 2026.
Visa policy is still a question?
