The next World Cup will be the biggest ever when the world soccer body FIFA takes the leap from a 32-team field to 48 teams in 2026.
DOHA, Qatar — The next World Cup will be the biggest ever when world soccer body FIFA takes the leap from a 32-team field to 48 teams in 2026.
Spain 7, Costa Rica 0 also happened at this World Cup. As did England's 6-2 rout of Iran, France's 4-1 dismantling of Australia and Qatar becoming the first host country to lose its three group stage matches. FIFA will need to dig even deeper into the lower levels of international soccer to get from 32 to 48.
“I am convinced that if the teams, the countries have more opportunities to go to the world stage, it will do more for development inside that country,” Wenger said. A third option being discussed is splitting the world's largest sporting event into two halves of 24, featuring six groups of four teams, with the winner of each half playing in the final, ESPN reported.In Qatar, Japan was one of three Asian teams to qualify for the last 16, which had never happened before. African teams collected more points in the group stage than ever.
