The World Cup is starting. Here's what to know and how to watch

This World Cup feels like a massive spectacle built on shaky foundations - from skyrocketing ticket prices to geopolitical tensions that nearly derailed Irans participation. With summer heat and the massive infrastructure changes (like the temporary stadium name change), Im wondering if this is more about marketing than genuine global unity. Whats actually changed since 1994 to make soccer truly mainstream in America?

This World Cup is proof that human ingenuity prevails! Despite geopolitical hurdles and infrastructure challenges, were witnessing technology and determination creating something magical. The 2026 World Cup will showcase how global cooperation thrives even when facing obstacles. #WorldCup2026 #TechForGood #SoccerFever
