Kylian Mbappé has solidified his place in soccer history by becoming the top scorer in World Cup history, moving ahead of Lionel Messi just one day before the final between Argentina and Spain. However, the French superstar made it clear that individual milestones offer little comfort when compared to missing out on the ultimate team prize. "The World Cup, it elevates you to certain levels… I would have preferred not […]

Santiago Bartolome has been dreaming about traveling to see his beloved Argentina play in soccer’s World Cup since he was a little boy. But he never envisioned anything quite like this. Thanks in large part to a chance meeting with Jameis Winston, Bartolome’s plan to simply drive across the country to share the World Cup experience with fellow Argentinians turned into the experience of a lifetime. He’s become a viral […]

Historically, third place games have typically been high scoring, wide open, and free-flowing, but England and France took that to another level on Saturday at Miami Stadium. England defeated France 6-4 to claim bronze at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. It was the best finish the Three Lions have had in the tournament since 1966 when they won at home. But the game itself was extraordinary. England was brilliant in […]

England has concluded its 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign with an epic 6-4 win over France to claim third place. While their campaign had plenty of memorable moments, Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham led the Three Lions to the team's fourth semifinal appearance but fell short of ultimately winning its first title since 1966. When Does England Next Play? The Three Lions will return to action in September during the […]

Argentina defeated England, 2-1, after a late comeback victory in the semifinals, scoring two goals from the 85th minute onward through Enzo Fernández and Lautaro Martínez to snatch a World Cup final spot right out of England’s hands. During the match, there was a moment where Jude Bellingham and Lionel Messi were in conversation, and it looked like a back-and-forth between the two stars. Bellingham smirked as he walked away, […]

Mark Twain once said that the two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why. But I would add a third: the day I met Lionel Messi. It was a sticky, humid and thunderstorm-ridden day in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, back in the summer of 2023, which was Messi’s arrival for Inter Miami. The night before the Leagues Cup final, […]

Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal can both make history in the 2026 FIFA World Cup final, but they're not the only ones whose legacies stand to benefit from the match — far from it. Here is who has the most to gain — and lose — in the 2026 FIFA World Cup between Spain and Argentina on Sunday at New York New Jersrey Stadium, according to the "First Things First" […]

NEW YORK — Spain has the chance to accomplish something no nation has ever achieved. If it defeats defending champion Argentina in Sunday’s World Cup final, both its men’s and women’s national teams will simultaneously hold the sport’s biggest trophy. Germany's men and women have each won two World Cups, but never concurrently. Similar feats have happened in other sports, including UConn’s men’s and women’s basketball teams winning national championships […]
