Inhaltsangabe

48 teams. 104 matches. 308 goals. One tournament that rewrote the record books.

The 2026 World Cup was the largest football tournament ever staged, and the first played across three nations. This is the complete, verified record of what happened.

Most World Cup coverage disappears within weeks. Highlights get buried, statistics get disputed, and the details that made the tournament extraordinary fade into vague memory.

This fact book gathers the entire competition in one place: every result, every record, every award, every milestone. Written as a permanent reference rather than a souvenir, it is organised so you can follow the tournament from the opening whistle in Mexico City to the 106th-minute goal that decided the final, or open any chapter on its own and find exactly what you need.

Inside This Book You Will Discover

• Why the expanded 48-team format produced the highest scoring rate at a World Cup since 1970, and what that settles about the arguments made before it began
• How Spain won the tournament conceding a single goal in eight matches, explained through the numbers rather than opinion
• The full record of all 104 matches, including every group table, all 32 knockout results, and the four penalty shootouts
• Why one nation reached the knockout stage after losing its first two matches, something impossible under any previous format
• The complete awards record, including the Golden Ball won by a player who neither scored nor assisted in eight matches
• BONUS

Who This Book Is Perfect For
