World Cup 2026 Canada/Mexico/US - reza - 04-29-2025
Canada
Mexico
United States
June 11 – July 19 2026
48 teams, 16 cities. 12 groups of 4, top 2 of each group and the 8 best 3rd placed teams progress to round of 32.
Looks like Ancelotti will be Brazil coach.

Not too crazy about this format. So many games to weed out the field from 48 to 32. I guess 1 positive thing will be that with 3rd placed teams going through, there is likely to been a lot less "meaningless" 3rd round games since a lot of teams will still have the opportunity to get through. Opposite of that, I think the 1st knockout round will have a lot off lopsided matchups and basically just a formality in some cases.

What's happening in Faroe Islands?

I saw the score earlier and thought that's a something is wrong with the website. Then I looked at the standings and see they are right up there, so this win wasn't just a fluke. This group seems veey weak though. Gibraltar is not really a team, tbh.
Montenegro has really fallen off in recent years after flirting with qualification to the Euros the last couple cycles. But i'm really surprised at the Czechs as they are always solid and a tough nut to crack. Still, Czechia plays Gibraltar in the last game so they are 99.99999% sure to be in the playoff spot ahead of the Faroe Islands. Either way, it's good when smaller countries close the gap. Nice to see

Kind of opposite of Faroe Islands.
Sweden coached by one of us btw, first to name the current Sweden coach without googling wins

Four wins for Faroe Islands sound about right, after all, FSF (Faroe Island Football Association) represents the fourth-smallest UEFA country by population. (source: Wikipedia)
As for Sweden, no, I had no idea so I had to Google names. What the actual heck?

Where is Sweden, it is a new country?
RE: World Cup 2026 Canada/Mexico/US - reza - 10-14-2025
Unsurprisingly, our legend was fired by Sweden
