There are a record 104 matches in the 2026 World Cup.
There was a stretch from the tournament kickoff on June 11 with Mexico’s opener as a host nation through end of the round of 16 on July 7 of 27 days straight with at least one game. Some days, there were as many as six matches in one day.
So that’s why it feels odd when the World Cup winds down, teams are eliminated and there are less matches.
After the quarterfinals, there are four teams and three matches left until we crown a World Cup champion. France, Spain, England and Argentina are itching to get their hands on the trophy.
