The 2026 FIFA World Cup, getting closer!

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is getting closer! 

The USMNT will have much of the attention, alongside Mexico and Canada, for a special reason. 

It's not that teams have increased from 32 to 48. That's a big deal but it's something else unique to World Cup history.
With Canada, Mexico, and the United States hosting, it will be the first of its kind...three nations hosting together!  
With the focal point of games being in the United States, along with the US being the leading sports-nation on earth, the USMNT will have plenty of people watching, wondering, doubting, and keeping score. 

As for the increase of teams to 48: how will that play out? 
Will the tournament be "watered down" as some analysts think? The rationale is that with so many teams, the stringent nature of qualifying has gone out the window. The competition will be weaker, some assert. 
At the same time, it will be enticing to see 48 teams starting the tournament! As each one tries to escape its group, the amount of games to watch and talking points will be endless. 
By tournament's end, it will likely be clear as to whether or not fans buy into the 48 team model. 

As qualifications build up, there's more around the corner!
