Everybody. Loves. A quiz. And, we reckon that you, the MUNDIAL faithful, would fancy themselves up against anyone. So, to end a real rollercoaster of a year on a high, we’ve put together 11 rounds of questions for you to spend a bit of you time working through. Kits, memes, stadiums, some geeky general knowledge, iconic adverts, missing players, the lot. Maybe you’ll do it yourself with a cuppa; maybe you’ll stick it in the family WhatsApp; maybe it’s one for you to pull out at the house party you’re currently trying to get to the end of. Some of it is 2024, some of it is from wherever we feel like. Either way, enjoy, and the answers are all at the bottom.
GENERAL 2024 FOOTBALL KNOWLEDGE
General Football Knowledge. This is your starter, your tomato soup, your melon wrapped in Parma ham. 11 questions, all based on how much you’ve paid attention this year. Not sure this one’s even fun. It's just a test, really, a test to see how much you look at actual things and not just badly placed viral video adverts on Twitter. Some are easy, some are okay, and some seem impossibly hard considering this has all happened within the last 12 months.
