World Cup Struggles for Spotlight in Sports-Mad USA

Wild celebrations erupted across New York City on Wednesday night as fans flooded the streets after the New York Knicks produced the biggest comeback in NBA Finals history to defeat the San Antonio Spurs. Similar scenes unfolded thousands of miles away in California, where sports bars along the Santa Monica coastline echoed with cheers.

FIFA defends ticket prices and visa handling ahead of World Cup start

FIFA President Gianni Infantino has defended the organization's handling of ticket prices and visa issues ahead of the 2026 World Cup kickoff, calling for fans to "relax" amid rising criticisms over costs and immigration complications. Speaking in Mexico City on June 10, the eve of the tournament's opening match between Mexico and South Africa at Estadio Azteca, Infantino addressed concerns about soaring ticket prices and visa-related controversies affecting officials and supporters.

Infantino defended the US$60 starting ticket price, noting that over six million tickets have been sold. He likened World Cup ticket costs to playoff […]

Iwobi Rues World Cup Miss Ahead of 100th Cap Against Portugal

As he prepares to earn his 100th cap for Nigeria in Wednesday's international friendly against Portugal, Nigeria midfielder Alex Iwobi says he has no regrets about his decade-long career with the Super Eagles.
