Debates


Multiple teams who have qualified for the 2026 World Cup are coming from countries whose citizens are currently barred entry to the USA.

How's this going to work? Maybe we will give the players a travel exemption but they'll have no fans, friends or family allowed to travel?

If we don't allow anyone in, we'll probably win the Cup.

Unless we allow US citizens who have ties to other countries to play for their teams. If we did that, the Italians in New York and New Jersey would probably win the Cup.


@wildgrass

Let the teams of those banned countries play their games in Canada

Lol that's a brilliant strategy that completely defeats the purpose of the world cup. We'll have to play on the moon in 2030.

Can they beat the Mexicans in CA?

many people will simply not bother

especially if they are off-white flavour.

Maybe itll all be better now that Trump won the FIFA prize.
