Sunil Gulati says 2026 WC bid will have 60 games in US, 10 each in Mexico and Canada. #usmnt

the games should spread evenly amongst the 3 nations IMO


At first glance Mexico deserves more games but I'd be surprised if their federation and federal government wanted any more.

Hosting World Cup games is otherworldly expensive. If you tell Mexico and Canada they have to cover a third of expenses they probably pull out.

I just want some WC matches in Miami or NYC. I think it's possible :)

Don't forget we're talking about a 48 team tournament in 2026.

Audi Field will be perfect for hosting Azerbaijan vs. Honduras.
 
Nah man, FIFA won't limit themselves like that.

They'd rather play matches in 75% empty stadiums than play in a 20K seater. Do you remember how empty some of the stadiums were in the fake Copa America?
