Big moments of the 23rd FIFA World Cup in 2026
From June 12 to July 20, the month-long 23rd FIFA Men’s World Cup concluded successfully. A total of 48 countries scored 307 goals across 104 matches, averaging 2.98 goals per game.
This World Cup is the highest-ever average goals per game since 1958, greatly setting a new record for total goals in a single World Cup.
A total of 1 billion people worldwide watched the live broadcasts across various platforms. In the end, the 2010 World Cup champions Spain won the title again with a record of 14 goals scored and 1 goal conceded. Captain Rodri won the Ballon d’Or (player of the tournament). Goalkeeper Unai Simón won the Golden Glove (best goalkeeper). Kubo César won the Best Young Player award.
Spain’s full squad of 26 averaged 24.7 years old. Eleven players were under 23, while only 3 were over 30, including 18-year-old Yamal, 19-year-old Kubo César, 20-year-old Gavi, and 21-year-old Pedri. Their possession-based tactics and team coordination were on full display. After the quarterfinals, except for defending champions Argentina, all teams remaining were European—again validating the saying that “when the World Cup is played to the end, it turns into a European Championship.” After the match against England, Argentina faced punishment from FIFA due to a controversy over fans’ debates surrounding the ownership of the Falkland Islands. Among European teams, Turkey and the Czech Republic finished last in their groups and failed to advance. The four-star Germany, despite expectations, was stunned in the penalty shootout and lost to Paraguay. The Netherlands, runners-up last time, drew Morocco after 120 minutes, then collapsed mentally during the penalties and were eliminated in the Round of 32.
European mid-tier teams Sweden, Austria, and Bosnia and Herzegovina advanced smoothly from the group stage and won through to the first round of the knockout stage, but they all lost to non-European teams and were eliminated in the Round of 32. Traditional powerhouses Italy and Denmark were knocked out directly in the World Cup qualifiers and did not reach this tournament’s main stage. The biggest dark horse of this World Cup was African island nation Cape Verde, which made the main stage for the first time in history. Drawn in the same group as champions Spain, they drew all three group matches against their opponents, finished with zero losses, and successfully edged out Uruguay to reach the Round of 16. The whole team’s defense was solid; against Spain, they were in no way inferior. They were the only team that did not lose to either finalist in regular time—creating an epic chapter in the history of a small country in football.
Paraguay, the second dark horse, had a pre-tournament probability of only 19.5% to qualify for the Round of 16. In the Round of 16, they overturned the four-time champions Germany in a penalty shootout, unleashing the biggest upset of the tournament’s opening. Relying on tough, no-nonsense defending to wear down the giants, Paraguay returned to the next round of the knockout stage for the first time in years.
Norway returned to the knockout stage of the World Cup after 28 years. In the Round of 16, they overturned the tournament’s title favorite Brazil 2-1. Haaland scored twice to complete a legendary comeback. Along the way, Norway beat Côte d’Ivoire and then Brazil to reach the quarterfinals, breaking the South American superpower’s undefeated myth and becoming a disruptive force from the new generation of Europe.
Switzerland returned to the World Cup knockout stage after 72 years. They eliminated Colombia on penalties to reach the quarterfinals, breaking a curse of more than 70 years without reaching the last eight. Goalkeeper Kobel repeatedly saved the day with crucial stops.
Morocco’s African team continued last edition’s strong form. They finished second in their group by beating Brazil in the group stage on course, solidified a defense-and-counterattack system, and advanced deep into the knockout stage consistently for two straight editions.
The topic “Before the U.S. team’s Round of 16 match against Belgium, Trump and Infantino made a phone call” shot to the hot search. Foralín Baralugón trampled on Bosnia and Herzegovina player’s ankle and received a red card, with the suspension executed later—leading to strong protests. The U.S. team ultimately still lost 1-4 and were eliminated. Among them, public statements highlighting individualism and freedom of speech repeatedly surged to the hot search.
In Portugal’s first-round 1-1 draw with the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Francisco Conceição (Little Conceição) saw no goals from Cristiano Ronaldo, and many fans accused his teammates of not passing to him. When a reporter asked him in the pre-match press conference, he said: “No one can compare to Cristiano’s scoring ability, but we have no obligation, no need to specifically pass the ball to him. I will only give the ball to the teammate who is open at the moment and in the best position. Cristiano and everyone else are here to help the team.” After Norwegian forward Andreas Schjelderup (Selot)—who provided two assists—eliminated Brazil 2-1 in the Round of 16, in an interview he said: “He’s basically a monster, an acknowledged world-class top forward. Basically, as long as you pass him the ball, that’s enough—you know in your heart he will score. No matter the quality of the pass, he can finish. Getting to play alongside him is our good fortune.”
The award presenters at this World Cup include: Trump (U.S. President), Infantino (FIFA President), Canadian Prime Minister Karney, Mexican President Sheinbaum, King Felipe VI of Spain, and football legend Ronaldo. Before the match, Ronaldo handed the Hercules Trophy to Trump with great fanfare. The Hercules Trophy was placed in the middle of the entrance to the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey (New York New Jersey Stadium), but when both teams entered, they followed the legacy curse of “no one wants to touch it.” Trump and Infantino together handed the Hercules Trophy to Spain captain Rodri. Rodri raised the trophy to celebrate with his teammates.
At the awards ceremony, the 39-year-old veteran Messi was visibly heartbroken. He played all 8 matches (7 starts, with the final going full 120 minutes), for a total playing time of 650 minutes. Throughout the tournament he received no yellow cards and no red cards, scored 8 goals and had 4 assists, and directly created 12 goals in a single tournament. Before the final, every match saw him log goals/assists; he totaled 35 shots, with 18 on target. He missed 2 penalty kicks, made 26 key passes, created 8 great goal-scoring chances (the most in the tournament), completed 24 successful dribbles, with a dribble success rate of 68.6%. He made 315 total passes, with 258 successful, for a passing success rate of 81.4%.
Messi won the Silver Boot for this edition. He was named Man of the Match in multiple games. Across six World Cups, he totaled 21 goals and 12 assists. He became the all-time leader in World Cup assists and also holds the record for the all-time first with 34 appearances. Argentina finished as runners-up. In the final, they lost 0-1 to Spain.
From June 12 to July 20, the month-long 23rd FIFA Men’s World Cup has come to a successful end. A total of 48 countries scored 307 goals across 104 matches, averaging 2.98 goals per match.
This World Cup is the highest average goals per game since 1958, dramatically refreshing the all-time record for total goals in a single edition.
Across the world, 1 billion people streamed the live broadcasts through various platforms. In the end, Spain—the champion of the 2010 World Cup—won the title again with a record of 14 goals and 1 goal conceded. Captain Rodri won the Ballon d’Or (best player of the tournament), goalkeeper Unai Simón won the Golden Glove (best goalkeeper), and Kubasci won the Best Young Player award.
The Spanish squad’s 26 players averaged 24.7 years old. Eleven players are under 23, and only three are over 30, including Yamal (18), Kubasci (19), Gavi (20), and Pedri (21). Their possession-based technical play and team-coordination spirit were on full display throughout the tournament. After the quarterfinals, with the exception of defending champions Argentina, all teams remaining were European—once again validating the saying that “by the time it’s the final stages, the World Cup turns into a European Championship.” After their match against England, Argentina faced punishment from FIFA due to disputes among fans over the ownership of the “Malvinas Islands.”
Among European teams, Turkey and the Czech Republic finished bottom of their groups and failed to advance. The four-star Germany, in a penalty shootout, suffered an upset loss to Paraguay. Last edition’s runner-up Netherlands drew Morocco in 120 minutes, then collapsed in their penalty mindset and were eliminated in the round of 32.
Mid-tier European sides Sweden, Austria, and Bosnia and Herzegovina advanced smoothly from the group stage and made it to the first round of the knockout stage, but they all fell to non-European teams and were eliminated in the round of 32. Traditional powerhouses Italy and Denmark were eliminated directly in the World Cup qualifiers and did not reach this edition’s finals. The biggest dark horse this tournament was Cape Verde, an African island nation, which for the first time in history reached the World Cup finals. Placed in the same group as the champions Spain, they drew all three group matches, finished with zero losses, and successfully edged out Uruguay to qualify for the round of 16. The entire team had a solid defense; against Spain they were never outmatched. They are the only team to avoid losing to either the champion or the runner-up in regulation time, creating an epic chapter in the history of small-nation football.
Paraguay, the second dark horse, had only a 19.5% predicted probability of advancing to the round of 16 before the tournament. In the round of 16, they overturned four-time champions Germany in a penalty shootout, producing the biggest upset of the tournament’s start. Relying on fierce, hard-nosed defense to wear down the giants, they returned to the second round of knockout play for the first time in many years.
Norway returned to the World Cup knockout stage after 28 years. In the round of 16, they completed a 2-1 comeback victory over Brazil, the tournament’s big favorite to win the title. Haaland scored twice to finish the epic turnaround. They then knocked out Côte d’Ivoire and surged into the quarterfinals, breaking the myth of South American powerhouse teams being unbeaten—and becoming a disruptor for the next generation of European teams.
Switzerland returned to the World Cup knockout stage after 72 years. They reached the quarterfinals by eliminating Colombia on penalties, breaking a curse of more than 70 years of missing the last eight. Goalkeeper Kobel made multiple crucial saves to turn the tide.
In Africa, Morocco carried forward the strong momentum from last edition’s final four. They topped their group by finishing ahead of Brazil to secure second place in the group, entrenched their defensive counterattack system, and consistently reached deep into the knockout stage for two consecutive editions.
The topic “Before the US team’s round of 16 match against Belgium, Trump and Infantino made a phone call” surged to the hot search. Valarin Balogun clattered and injured the ankle of a Bosnia and Herzegovina player, and was shown a red card—then the ban was executed on a delayed basis for one year, triggering strong protests. The US team ultimately still lost 1-4 and were eliminated. Among it all, frequent public statements highlighting individualism and freedom of speech repeatedly topped the hot search.
In Portugal, Francisco Conceição (Little Conceição) drew 1-1 with Democratic Congo in the first match. Ronaldo failed to score throughout the game, and large numbers of fans accused teammates of not passing to him. When asked during the pre-match press conference, he said: “Ronaldo’s scoring ability is incomparable, but we have no obligation, and no need, to specifically pass the ball to him. I will only pass to the teammate who is in the open space at the moment, and who has the best position. Ronaldo is here to help the team, just like everyone else.” After the Norwegian forward Andreas Schjelderup (Sarolt) eliminated Brazil 2-1 in the round of 16, he said in an interview: “He (Haaland) is basically a monster—universally recognized as a world-class top forward. Put simply, if you pass the ball to him, that’s enough—you know in your heart he will score. No matter the quality of the pass, he can still finish. It’s our good fortune to have him on our team.”
The award presenters at this World Cup included: Trump (U.S. President), Infantino (FIFA President), the Canadian Prime Minister Karney, Mexican President Shinbaum, King Felipe VI of Spain, and football legend Ronaldo. Before the ceremony, Ronaldo handed the trophy of Hercules to Trump. The trophy was placed in the middle of the entrance at MetLife Stadium (New York New Jersey Stadium), but when the two teams entered the field, they inherited the “curse” that no one wanted to touch. Trump and Infantino jointly handed the trophy to Spain captain Rodri. Rodri lifted the trophy and celebrated with his teammates.
At the awards ceremony, 39-year-old veteran Messi was clearly crestfallen. He played all eight matches in full (seven starts, and the final played the full 120 minutes), totaling 650 minutes on the pitch. Throughout the tournament he received no yellow cards and no red cards. He scored 8 goals and provided 4 assists, directly creating 12 goals in the tournament. Before the final, he recorded goals/assists in every match. He took a total of 35 shots, 18 on target, missed 2 penalty kicks, made 26 key passes, created 8 excellent scoring chances (the most in the tournament), completed 24 successful take-ons, with a take-on success rate of 68.6%. He made 315 total passes, of which 258 were successful, for a pass success rate of 81.4%.
Messi won the Silver Boot at this World Cup. He was named man of the match multiple times in single games. Over six World Cups he totaled 21 goals and 12 assists. He became the all-time top assister at World Cups and the all-time leader in appearances with 34 matches. Argentina ultimately finished as runners-up, losing 0-1 to Spain in the final.
