On Tuesday, December 17, the FIFA The Best individual awards will be presented, but not in the traditional format.
Details: According to Marca, this year’s ceremony will be held online. The decision stems from an extremely packed schedule, leaving no room for an in-person event until March. The nominees have already been informed of the change.
During the ceremony, FIFA will announce the best men’s player, women’s player, men’s goalkeeper, women’s goalkeeper, men’s team coach, and women’s team coach of the year.
Reminder: During the draw for the European qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, an unprecedented scandal occurred, potentially sparking international outrage.
While displaying the geographical separation of teams for political reasons, a map was shown that depicted Ukraine's territory without the temporarily occupied Crimea.
The draw for the 2025 Club World Cup has taken place, marking the first time the tournament will be played in a new format. A total of 32 teams from around the world have been divided into 8 groups of 4 teams.
