"Next thing ya know, Jersey party at the world cup!" -STEVE "LAST CALL"

[@mpk2269]

Why didn't Stadium Arteca

[@daveeboy1]

Don't worry, the US won't need to be worried about travelling to NY for the final 🤣

[@rafikz77]

😂

[@letsexperienceearth3034]

I'm curious how many people fly to America for games from other countries - especially with the group stages being expanded to 48 teams. 2026 will be the biggest and best World Cup yet.

[@freddyd17]

The 1994 World Cup in the U.S. is until this day the most attended World Cup ever.

[@jerseyfky]

tens of thousands... if not hundreds of thousands.

[@toogyman]

Well it will be the biggest as they have never had 48 teams before - pure FIFA politics at play driving that number , hope it goes back to 32 At least they dumped the crazy plan to have 16 groups of 3 that would have been a disaster Best World Cup 🤔 that’s a tough one Most think 1970 was the greatest one with the boys from Brazil at their finest I thought 82 in Spain was great who knows it might get close to 1970

[@stevel9627]

Hundreds of thousands and don’t forget the US has a huge immigrant population. Imagine if Ireland make it and you’d get a huge amount of Irish Americans jumping on board the bandwagon even if they don’t care about football

[@freddyd17]

@@stevel9627 Yeah like in 1994 when it was Ireland vs Italy in New York where that stadium was picked filled with Italian Americans and Irish Americans.

[@tvnist]

What a brilliant coach

[@Turtlefast235]

Tell me you don't know anything about soccer without telling me you don't know anything about soccer 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@Katkayz]

He is the best coach Ever

[@hugonongbri8100]

US will finally witness what a global sporting event looks like 👍

[@_Jake.From.Statefarm_]

lmao

[@jerseyfky]

When you realize that they've already hosted this event in 1994

[@emgo-at7398]

Football! ⚽️

[@_Jake.From.Statefarm_]

@@emgo-at7398 Way to add to the discussion emgo.

[@rafikz77]

Cool, the USMNT won’t be there that day

[@mouthgina3213]

Best thing to ever happen to Jersey. I don’t think it’s an advantage for team USA it’s more pressure and they’re not even good as it is.

[@mr.z.007]

Messi Is The Greatest Of All Time! 🇦🇷👑

[@user-pi2lq]

Turf field?

[@jerseyfky]

No. FIFA does not allow World Cup games to be played on turf. All games are on grass

[@tuan122001]

From June 11 to July 19-2026, not July 11🤣

[@hussienalsafi1149]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@stevenseibel9216]

Another Germany group stage exit. If Klopp returns final.

[@rasiel957]

If they get 3rd they can qualify for R32, but they will most likely get a tough opponent like a Brazil, France, England.

[@giovannimartinez2014]

That me

[@clorox597]

The USMNT won’t even make it past the quarterfinals, the final is either gonna have Brazil or France

[@CG68810]

Let's hope he is not the head coach after this summer or the US is going to have an embarrassing early exit.

[@danielcampos20242]

Brazil 2026 World Champions

[@kevinestrada900]

We need a new coach before the World Cup or we are Dooooomed 😥

[@Untilthenstaykind]

Uswnt playing 💯 better than usmnt 😂😂 from tactical,teamwork and skills

[@LilyHuangs]

0:50 this anchor woman's comments show the bias that is still out there by new Yorkers against jersey

[@ronincollector1988]

[@Spheterix]

Not according to America football here is the NFL or as some of you European nerds like to call it "handegg"

[@andrewrodriguez8010]
