Fifa will reevaluate the 2026 World Cup structure after the "greatest ever" competition following the 2022 World Cup.

 According to president Gianni Infantino, Fifa will reevaluate the format of the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Mexico, and Canada.


The number of teams in the competition will ri


se from 32 to 48, and they will be split up into 16 groups of three, with the top two teams moving on to the final 32.


After the "success" of the four-team groups in the Qatar 2022 World Cup, Infantino stated, it would be taken into consideration.


Infantino remarked, "The groups of four here have been really wonderful.


"Until the very last second of the final game, you would not know who advances.


"The format has to be reviewed or at least discussed again. The next meeting's agenda will undoubtedly include this item.

The group stages in Qatar saw some thrilling championship matches as nations competed for the top two spots to advance to the round of 16.


Since the men's World Cup's expansion to 32 teams in 1998, the four-team group system has been in use, with the top two teams advancing to the knockout rounds.



World Cup legacies are transient, according to Lineker

Infantino: "The best World Cup ever."

After attending a Fifa council meeting, Infantino gave a press conference in Qatar.


He stated that 3.27 million fans have seen the games, as opposed to an overall 3.3 million at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, with the third-place play-off and final still to come.


"I want to thank everyone who helped make this World Cup the best, especially Qatar and all the volunteers.

Matches were played without any mishaps. There has been a lot of happiness here.



"When we discuss football becoming really global, something interesting is happening because for the first time ever, an African team—Morocco—has advanced to the semifinals.


"Stephanie Frappart, a woman, officiated a game for the first time for us.


"It has been a phenomenal success, with viewership counts that are close to five billion. The interaction of the fans with the Arab world has been crucial to our collective future.


Because of potential repercussions from Fifa, the body that oversees international football, several European countries decided not to wear a OneLove armband during matches to encourage diversity and inclusion.

But I also think that the stadium goers and the billions of people watching on television might feel that everyone has their own difficulties and that they just want to spend 90 minutes focusing solely on experiencing a little moment of pleasure, excitement, or feeling.

Who Is SpongeBob's Owner? Hollywood's Creative Base is Shaken by AI

 Phil Wiser, the head of technology at Paramount Global PARA -1.22%decrease; red down pointing triangle, used SpongeBob SquarePants to showcase the dangers and benefits of artificial intelligence for company executives. Mr. Wiser gave the order to DALL-E, an AI tool, to display SpongeBob, one of the most recognisable figures from Paramount, piloting a jet. At the presentation to Chief Executive Bob Bakish and others earlier this year, a picture of the rectangle cartoon character doing just that emerged on a big TV screen. The "Transformers" character Optimus Prime was then shown on the Paramount Studios lot by the tool at Mr. Wiser's request. It produced a picture of the imposing robot standing next to the cafe on the lot in a matter of seconds. The vivid demonstration brought up some of the unresolved issues around generative AI technology and potential dangers. The application of intellectual property laws to various instruments is frequently contested or unclear: Shoul...

Would Jason Momoa portray the bad guy in Tiger vs. Pathaan with Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan?

Image
The recent rumours in Indian media that Hollywood action star Jason Momoa is being considered for the role of the villain in the Yash Raj Film-produced movie have only served to heighten the anticipation for the upcoming collaboration of Indian superstars Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan's Tiger vs. Pathaan. Siddharth Anand, an Indian filmmaker who has previously directed the recently released spy films Pathaan and War for the same production company, is helming the picture (2019). Avinash Singh Rathore, aka Tiger, who was portrayed by Salman in the Tiger franchise, and Pathaan, who was portrayed by Shah Rukh in his most recent film Pathaan, would be combined into one character in the future movie. This will be a part of YRF's spy world, which will also feature the two Khans, Indian actors Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff, who play agents in the film War, and other actors. If accurate, Momoa will have previously been spotted with Shah Rukh. The two actors first connected at the 20...
