The Guardian FootballHaaland doubles up again as Norway defeat Senegal and seal spot in World Cup last 32
At the final whistle in New Jersey Norway’s players collapsed on to the rain-drenched grass, tumbled over one another in a genuinely passionate celebratory embrace, then gathered to sit in close formation in front of their fans like primary school kids in a particularly cramped assembly hall. Off to one side Martin Ødegaard began to beat on a drum provided for the occasion while the players and staff, in concert with their fans, did the Viking-rowing-boat-plus-Icelandic-style-hu-cheer, a routine the Norwegians have been rolling out throughout the tournament.

The Guardian FootballTwo-hour storm break fails to stop France as Mbappé and Dembélé prove too good for Iraq
Could France do it on a hot, humid, waterlogged and lightning-threatened night in Pennsylvania? The answer was pretty straightforward. Despite an interruption of more than two hours after a chain of severe thunderstorms disrupted play at Philadelphia Stadium, France brushed past the physical challenge of Iraq, and furthered Kylian Mbappé’s personal duel with Lionel Messi in the process. The France captain got another two goals on the night of his 100th cap, the first a rip-snorter from outside the box after a period of dominance, the second a tap in after calamitous defending from Iraq. Ousmane Dembélé got the third, his first goal at a major tournament. Didier Deschamps, meanwhile, was able to confirm passage to the knockout rounds, rest players from his starting XI, and even retire Dembélé and Michael Olise on the hour, preserving them for more taxing contests. There were no clouds on this particular horizon. Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballNew Zealand v Egypt: World Cup 2026 – live
⚽️ Kick-off time: 6pm local/11am AEST/2am BST/9pm EDT ⚽️ Player guide | Bracketology | Golden Boot | Mail Jonathan New Zealand arrived at this World Cup as rank outsiders but they are now 90 minutes from the knockouts. New Zealand, known as the All Whites, are back at the World Cup for just the third time, thanks to winning the Oceania region’s sole qualifying spot. Since their last World Cup in 2010 New Zealand have evolved from part-timers to professionals and there is belief they have the skillset and experience to make the knockout rounds for the first time. It’s a tall order, though. New Zealand, at No 85 the event’s lowest-ranked qualifiers, are up against Belgium, who are ninth, Egypt, 29th, and Iran, 21st, in Group G. The renowned commentator Paul Ifill says the current squad is “miles better” than the one that went to South Africa, where they finished unbeaten with three draws. After the squad announcement the coach, Darren Bazeley, agreed the side were in a good place: “It’s a blend of exciting young talent and experienced players to maximise our chances of winning games and getting out of our group.” Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballKylian Mbappé hungry for Golden Boot battle with Messi as he sings Les Bleus
Mbappé: Nothing bigger than playing for France Striker defends performance of Ousmane Dembélé Kylian Mbappé is relishing a Golden Boot duel with Lionel Messi, the player he calls the “best of the best”, but has said his personal ambitions would be subordinated to those of the team when France seek to seal qualification from Group C with victory over Iraq on Monday. Mbappé stepped into the full glare of the international media for the first time at this World Cup and handled the spotlight impeccably. From a defence of Ousmane Dembélé to the hot topic of the hydration break, France’s captain spoke in a calm and thoughtful manner. A more pugilistic role was reserved for his manager, Didier Deschamps. Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballSpaceship stadiums and Ronaldo-mania: Guardian writers’ first impressions of the World Cup
Tournament has completed its first week and while the logistics have sometimes been challenging, the people and the football have been good It was quite a contrast touching down in sleepy Kansas City hours after having witnessed the bedlam on the streets of New York when the Knicks won the NBA Finals and Brazil drew with Morocco . But this is a World Cup full of contrasts, from Fifa’s never-ending quest to make a quick buck ($5 a pop for a bottle of water in the media centre) to the warmth shown by locals I’ve encountered in the Big Apple, Kansas City and Dallas. Then there’s the football. It’s been hard to keep up with the volume of matches, but the opening round served up some classics, with DR Congo’s draw against Portugal on the same day as England beat Croatia capping a thrilling first week of action. Let’s hope it continues. Ed Aarons It took nearly the full opening round, but a US scene that is usually focused on other sports has fully turned its eyes to socc– sorry, I mean football, forgot to code-switch. Fitting, actually, because at times this state of affairs has been awkward, like when the standard “loud men yelling” sports talk shows are forced to reckon with international football being the No 1 talking point and employing nobody that knows the scene. But these are growing pains. The sport is on at bars and delis, it is being discussed at school pickups and on the rides home. It’s beautiful and exactly what so many of us here in the States have been fighting for. Alexander Abnos Continue reading...
