Reviewing FIFA 2026 Schedule

FIFA has released the final fixtures and schedule for 2026 as of February 2024, confirming that the opening match will take place at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City on June 11, 2026. If we consider Beijing time, that would likely be June 12 at 3:00 a.m. Given the time zones, this matches up since Mexico City operates on UTC-5 during daylight saving. The group stage runs from June 11 to sometime in July, with additional matches following.Clarifying FIFA 2026 Format

The 2026 World Cup expands to 48 teams, featuring a format of 12 groups of 4 teams. The top two teams from each group, plus the eight best third-placed teams, will advance to a 32-team knockout stage. The tournament will last 39 days, with the final taking place at MetLife Stadium in New York/New Jersey on July 19, 2026. Semifinals will be held at AT&T Stadium in Dallas and Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. The opening match is at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City.Recapping Opening Matches

I remember that Canada’s first match will likely take place in Toronto at BMO Field on June 12, while the USA's opening match is also on June 12 at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. There was some controversy about the stadium’s field width, but it seems that will be resolved. The group stage should end around June 27, leading into the Round of 32 from June 28 to July 3. I need to double-check the details to ensure accuracy for major matches and time zones, especially for potential users in Beijing.Clarifying Match Details

I should ask the user what specific details they want. I can provide key highlights like the opening match time, host cities, and the final date/time in Beijing time. Although I can't link to the official schedule, I can mention that "FIFA 官网公布了详细赛程." It’s also a good idea to offer a full Beijing-time calendar in ICS format if they want it. As of now, without specific match data, I might need to clarify if they want key points or a template, noting that match slots won't be fully drawn until later.Summarizing Key Tournament Details

Let's clarify the details for the 2026 tournament, including the final at MetLife Stadium on July 19, likely at 18:00 local time. I’ll provide key highlights, such as opening match times and locations, like the match at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City at 03:00 Beijing time on June 12. I can summarize the tournament span from June 12 to July 20 (in Beijing time), noting the semifinals in Dallas and Atlanta, and the third-place match in Miami. I’ll ask if the user wants a detailed schedule or just key milestones.
