The 2026 World Cup is here. The most anticipated event for football lovers and those who enjoy watching together.
From 11 June to 19 July, 48 teams compete across the United States, Canada and Mexico in one of the biggest tournaments in decades. Les Bleus kick off on 16 June against Senegal, at times that work well for French viewers back home, with matches starting between 9pm and 11pm.
