FIFA World Cup: Sunday features an exciting double-header in the FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 16. Five-time champions Brazil will take on a Norway team fueled by Erling Haaland, while England heads to Mexico City to face co-hosts Mexico in front of a crowd that hasn't seen their team lose at home in over ten years. These are two very different challenges, with a spot in the quarter-finals at stake, and the Golden Boot race becoming increasingly competitive.
