Not on the pitch, but still in our hearts. How long before we see him suit up at World Cup 2026?
Show time in New York/New Jersey.
Lot of yellow in the crowd!
That's the magic of the World Cup, everyone. Bringing people together from all walks of life.
Brazil-Morocco going to be scenes. Two of the best nations at the World Cup squaring off in first group game. 30 minutes to kickoff...

Qatar left it late to claim a remarkable point against Switzerland, with the Maroons grabbing a 95th-minute equalizer to keep parity in Group B.
Breel Embolo broke the deadlock with a controversial first-half penalty. Around the 15th-minute mark, Remo Freuler was felled in the six-yard box after goalkeeper Mahmud Abunada clattered into him. It looked like a certain spot-kick, but replays showed a possible offside in the buildup. The play went for a VAR check, but no footage was provided to broadcasters, adding a layer of suspicion among onlookers and pundits.ย
Regardless of its validity, the penalty went ahead, and Embolo converted calmly, sending Abunada the wrong way.ย
With the Santa Clara heat perhaps getting to the players, the action slowed down in the second half. While Switzerland maintained a hold on the game, it was more of a controlled dominance rather than sending wave after wave of attacks towards Qatar's box, as in the first period.ย
Chances were few and far between. Granit Xhaka had a trademark piledriver from distance in the 49th minute, which stung the fingertips of Abunada, and Ruben Vargas should have done better when finding himself free on the left side of the penalty area.ย
However, with a couple of minutes remaining, Homam Al Amin whipped in a delightful cross from the left, and Boualem Khoukhi leaped above his marker to convert a powerful header past Gregor Kobel to earn Qatar's first-ever World Cup point.ย
The first big shock result of the tournament leaves everything poised in Group B, with both sides joining Canada and Bosnia and Herzegovina on a single point.
Towering header from Khoukhi ties game at 1-1 in stoppage time. Wow.
No Neymar in the squad for Carlo Ancelotti โน๏ธ
We have a blockbuster of two top 10 ranked nations coming after Qatar-Switzerland. Updates coming from both games now! Including WILD scenes in Times Square ๐

It was almost a dream start for Qatar when Edmilson Junior pounced on Manuel Akanji's error on the edge of the Switzerland box. However, he couldn't squeeze his shot past goalkeeper Gregor Kobel.ย
From there, it was practically all Switzerland, with Dan Ndoye failing to capitalize on two presentable opportunities and Akanji unable to divert a free-kick past Mahmud Abunada.
The breakthrough came from the penalty spot, with Breel Embolo converting coolly after Abunada wiped out Remo Freuler in the box. Questions will be asked of the VAR decision-making, though, with a possible offside in the buildup.ย
Switzerland continued to put the pressure on, with Ndoye yet again missing a good chance and Rubรฉn Vargas foiled by Adunada as the break drew near.ย
While Edmilson Junior had another decent opportunity just before the half, it's difficult to see the Maroons getting much from this one, given Switzerland's dominance. They will be lucky not to concede more in the second half.ย
World Cup HERITAGE.
Embolo cool from the spot to put Europeans ahead vs. Qatar.
Switzerland unable to capitalize as Abunada with strong hand to deny opener.
