Super Cup Overview

New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani has negotiated a deal to offer 1,000 $50 tickets to World Cup games at MetLife Stadium this summer, he announced Thursday morning. The seats will cover five group games, as well as two knockout fixtures, and include free transportation to stadiums. They are available only to New York residents and cannot be resold or transferred.

Brazil have been hit with a significant injury scare regarding Neymar just weeks before the World Cup is set to kick off in North America. The Santos star is struggling with a calf problem that could see him sidelined for the team’s final preparatory fixtures.

Cole Palmer and Phil Foden are reportedly set to miss out on England's 2026 World Cup squad, with Thomas Tuchel's final 26-man list being leaked ahead of Friday's official announcement. Luke Shaw is also expected to join Manchester United team-mate Harry Maguire in being omitted from the squad for the tournament in North America.

Manchester United flop Antony has firmly ruled out undergoing surgery on a chronic groin injury following his omission from Brazil's 2026 World Cup squad. Despite reports suggesting a lengthy layoff, the Real Betis winger delivered a defiant message, confirming he will opt for conservative treatment after concluding a career-best statistical season in Spain.
