By IANS News June 11, 2026 • 10:06 AM View: 282

The FIFA World Cup: The FIFA World Cup 2026 gets under way on Friday (IST) as co-hosts Mexico will raise the curtain on the biggest-ever World Cup when the first match of the 104-game extravaganza kicks off with their Group A meeting against South Africa at the Mexico City Stadium.

By a twist of fate, the clash is a reverse repeat of the opening game of the 2010 tournament, when Bafana Bafana were the host nation.

South Africa secured their place at a fourth global showpiece by finishing top of Group C in CAF qualifying.
