BILD Reporter's Top 10 Best Matches of the 2026 World Cup

A BILD Sport reporter who watched all 104 matches of the 2026 World Cup in the USA, Canada, and Mexico presents his top 10 most memorable games. The list includes Algeria vs Austria (3-3 with late drama), Argentina vs England (2-1 semifinal comeback), England vs Croatia (4-2 goal fest), Netherlands vs Morocco (3-4 extra-time thriller), Mexico vs England (2-3 with red card and penalties), and Argentina vs Cape Verde (3-2 extra-time fairytale). The reporter argues that despite fears about the expanded 48-team format, the tournament delivered historic matches with emotional moments, including Cody Gakpo's tears for his unborn son and Harry Kane's dejection after semifinal elimination.
