Senegal espera a la Noruega de Haaland en medio de un volcán en su co…

El seleccionador senegalés Pape Thiaw compareció este domingo en la sala de prensa del estadio MetLIfe de Nueva Jersey/Nueva York sabedor de que sería cuestionado por el polvorín en el que se ha convertido la concentración tras la derrota en el estreno ante Francia. Los retrasos en los pagos de las primas a los jugadores, una alimentación deficiente para deportistas de élite y, hasta su propio contrato sin firmar, han copado el foco de la considerada mejor selección africana de este Mundial junto a Marruecos. Con ese explosivo caldo de cultivo se preveía un motín que solo ha podido detener el presidente de la república, Bassirou Diomaye Faye. Este ha mediado en el conflicto y ha propiciado una tregua momentánea-

Imagina viajar a Estados Unidos para ir a un partido del Mundial y vivir la experiencia de llegar al estadio en el clásico autobús escolar amarillo de los Estados Unidos. Eso es lo que ocurre en Miami. Salvo tener una de las cotizadas y para nada baratas plazas de párking (con un precio mínimo de 120 dólares, actualmente), al Hard Rock Stadium se debe llegar en uno de los 'shuttles' habilitados por la ciudad en diferentes puntos alrededor del estadio. afsport.lat

Tournament could hold up a useful hand mirror to the isolationism and divisiveness of Trump’s joint-host nation

One of the best parts of following football across the world is the way it drags you into special places, local shrines, objects of profound cultural connection. The US, of course, has these holy spaces too.

The queue of pilgrims in Philadelphia on Thursday morning stretched down the sun-blasted steps to the plaza at the bottom. Edging forward, the people in their ritual colours approached the figure at the top, arms outstretched in supplication, in a state of hushed deference. Called finally for his moment of communion, the man at the front of this line straightened his Ronaldinho shirt, clenched his fists above his head for the ceremonial Insta pic and shouted: “Adrian! I did it.”

A viral video showing a young "fan" enthusiastically supporting her national team from the stands fooled thousands of viewers who shared it across social media and attempted to identify the woman. The only problem: she never existed. The footage was entirely generated by artificial intelligence.

The incident highlights the growing influence of AI during the 2026 World Cup, where technology is increasingly being used to create convincing but entirely fabricated content that can shape public conversation about the tournament in real-time.

Lamine Yamal got Spain back on track during an eventful Sunday at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. After Spain's blowout win, Iran earned a hard-fought point against Belgium and Cape Verde gave Uruguay a brief scare with its first-ever World Cup goal. Here is everything you might have missed on Day 11 of the 2026 FIFA World Cup: Spain vs. Saudi Arabia Belgium vs. Iran Uruguay vs. Cape Verde New Zealand vs. Egypt BEST OF THE DAY Save Of The Day Belgium was in control of Sunday's matchup against Iran, and the Red Devils looked like the more likely team to break through with a goal. A defining moment in the game came in the 59th minute, when Belgium star Kevin de Bruyne brilliantly controlled a lofted pass from Leandro Trossard near the touchline. He played a pass into the box, where left back Maxim De Cuyper eventually put a shot on goal that Beiranvand got a strong hand on. Seven minutes later, the game changed when Belgium center back Nathan Ngoy was sent off. Iran stayed defensively strong and got its second draw of the tournament ahead of its final game of the tournament next week against Egypt. Assist Of The Day Mikel Oyarzabal's amazing first 25 minutes finished with a tap-in finish at the back post after a great passing sequence that saw the ball not touch the ground. Right back Pedro Porro played a pass to the far post, which Marc Cucurella played toward the center of the box, where Olmo kept the ball in the air with his head. From there, it landed right at Oyarzabal's foot for an easy finish. Goal Of The Day Cape Verde's first-ever World Cup goal was scored in style. Uruguay midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur committed a foul about 30 yards away from goal in the middle of the field. Uruguay goalkeeper Fernando Muslera put two players in his defensive wall, although it proved hugely ineffective. Pina stepped up and smashed a shot through the wall that moved away from Muslera and snuck inside the post. It was a great hit from the Cape Verde-born midfielder that shocked Miami Stadium. Moment Of The Day Spain's 18-year-old phenom came on for the final quarter of the team's 0-0 draw against Cape Verde to open the tournament. He looked lively but could not break through. It took him 10 minutes to get the ball into the back of the net against Saudi Arabia. Spain attacker Mikel Oyarzabal held up possession on the left wing and then played a brilliant ball into the back post, where Yamal slid in to tuck the ball home. It was a great moment for the player who we ranked as the No. 1 player at the World Cup, as well as a signal that Spain is still a serious contender.
