Next one will be a final between Spain and England.
Spain will win 1-0 with a Pedri goal.

I was a bit surprised in February when they announced MetLife Stadium as hosting the final, rather than SoFi in California.

From talking to American mates (including one in New Jersey) the latter is a superior stadium, as well as New Jersey having awful transport links and transport in general.

Looking forward to the tournament anyway. It will be madness for us in Europe with time zones, but generally FIFA and TV companies optimise things for us. Not sure about this 48 team system, basically the old World Cup or current Euros but doubled. We'll see how it goes though.

Not sure where to put this, but with Oceania now having an automatic spot, New Zealand really have a bye to every World Cup.

It doesn't seem fair when better teams play in much more competitive regions. But it is a double-edged sword as there's a limit to their potential improvement playing against Fiji and Tahiti. That's why Australia joined AFC.
