The curtains will be drawn on the 2026 FIFA World Cup tomorrow.
The 104 football battles fought amongst 48 countries will come to a most befitting climax. The two teams at the finish line are amongst the 7 that have previously won the World Cup, maintaining a tradition that only a few countries in the world can, and have managed to win in history.
Another useful tradition to note is that the coveted trophy is not won by the element of luck, or by accident. It is success earned through very difficult matches from start till the end.
In that vein, every previous World Cup has been won by a country on the merit of consistent performances through several different and challenging matches!
That’s the simplest explanation for why Spain (1 time-winners) and Argentina (3 time-winners) are the two countries to have survived the turbulence of the past four weeks till the end, a period that held the entire world in the grip of uncommon drama, suspense, fun, exhilarating games and unpredictable matches, with many last-minute dramatic matches such as have never been experienced in World Cup history!
