World Cup 2026

The Mexico and Germany men’s national football teams ended in a 2-2 draw in front of 62,284 fans, in an atmosphere that rivaled Game 2 of the NLCS.

The deal still needs formal approval at a meeting of FIFA's 211 member federations.

FIFA officials were in South Philadelphia for tours of the Sports Complex and Lincoln Financial Field to discuss logistics for the 2026 World Cup- the biggest sporting event.

Eight women’s teams celebrating the city’s international communities took part in the inaugural competition. Four will face off in the semifinals Sept. 30.

The Linc hosted over 105,000 soccer fans last weekend. There will be plenty more elite competition and community outreach to build momentum for 2026’s big event.

American-owned Milan is reportedly preparing to pay a transfer fee of $22 million for Pulisic.

The 22-year-old United States midfielder has agreed a season-long deal after Leeds was relegated from the Premier League last term.

Philadelphia is one of 11 U.S. Cities hosting World Cup matches in 2026, with games set to be played at Lincoln Financial Field.

The decision adds 24 more games for the 16 host cities. That should further fuel FIFA’s expected record revenue of at least $11 billion through 2026.

A total of 48 amateur teams are competing this year, including four new teams from Angola, Portugal, Uruguay, and the Dominican Republic.

Philadelphia is one of more than a dozen cities in North America that will host the FIFA World Cup games in 2026.

Seventeen U.S. stadiums in 16 areas remain in the bidding for the first 48-team World Cup.
