FIFA President Gianni Infantino has confirmed that the 2026 World Cup final at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey will include a groundbreaking Super Bowl- style halftime show.
This innovative approach, marking the first such event in World Cup history, involves Coldplay in curating the entertainment, aiming to blend high-profile music with the world’s most watched sporting event.
While this move is seen by some as a refreshing enhancement to the viewing experience, others express concerns about preserving the traditional essence of football amidst growing American sports influences.
