In the early morning of February 5, 2024, FIFA officially announced the detailed schedule and related information for the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico. The World Cup will write a new chapter in history, as 48 teams will be involved in the world's largest football tournament, and they will be divided into 12 groups and play a total of 104 matches, which will last for 40 days, all of which set a record.
According to the official schedule, the 2026 World Cup will officially start on June 11, and the opening match will be held at the Estadio Aztec in Mexico, which will be the starting point of the World Cup with a long history and unique charm. The final will be held on July 19 at MetLife Stadium in New York, USA, and the modern stadium will also witness the birth of a new world champion.
For Chinese football, this is good news and a challenge. The national football team needs to work hard to improve its strength in the coming years to stand out in the qualifiers and reach the finals of the World Cup. This reform of the competition system has given more teams the opportunity to participate in the World Cup, which undoubtedly increases the possibility of the national football team qualifying, but it also means that the competition will be more intense.
The national team did not perform well in the previous World Cup qualifiers, but that doesn't mean they don't have a chance. In future training and competitions, as long as the national football team can give full play to its strength and actively respond to challenges, then it is possible for them to realize their dream of entering the World Cup.
The reform of the competition system of this World Cup not only gives the national football team a chance, but also gives all those who like football an expectation. We look forward to seeing the national football team in the 2026 World Cup, seeing them fighting for China's football cause and bringing joy to all Chinese fans.
For the national football team, they need to be fully prepared in the next time, improve their strength, and also need to have a firm confidence. We believe that as long as the national football team can give it their all, then they have the potential to create a miracle in the 2026 World Cup.
Let's look forward to the future performance of the national football team, and hope that they can show the style of Chinese football in the 2026 World Cup and bring pride to all Chinese fans. National football team, come on! We're sure you can do it!
