2030 World Cup to be hosted across three continents by six nations

FIFA has designated six nations to host the 2030 World Cup, marking the first time the tournament will span three continents. The main hosts are Spain, Portugal, and Morocco, with opening matches to be held in Uruguay, Paraguay, and Argentina as a centenary tribute. The number of participating teams (48 or 64) and the location of the final remain undecided. The decision was announced on December 11, 2024, with little suspense as the Spain-Portugal-Morocco bid won. The article also notes ongoing questions about logistics and format, including a humorous comment about Greenland.
