World Cup
Soccer
From venues in North America, the 23rd running of the FIFA World Cup competition, running June 11 – July 19.
Matt Roush says...
The tournament that has taken the world by storm, generating record ratings among U.S. audiences, reaches its grand finale Sunday with the championship match between reigning victor Argentina and its living-legend star player Lionel Messi vs. Spain (3 pm/ET, Fox). (The vintage photo showing a much younger Messi posing with Spain’s rising star Lamine Yamal as a 6-month-old baby went viral this week. It also underscores the generational nature of this rivalry.) Echoing the pomp of the Olympics or the Super Bowl, the final will be preceded by a closing ceremony in New Jersey featuring headliner Post Malone, with appearances by celebrities including Tom Cruise, Nicole Scherzinger, Robbie Williams, and Jennifer Hudson, who will deliver the National Anthem. Performers during the halftime spectacular include Madonna, Shakira, Justin Bieber, and BTS, with Sesame Street and other Muppet characters on hand. On Saturday, the third-place finisher will be decided in a Miami match (5 pm/ET, Fox) between runners-up France and England.
