The 2026 FIFA World Cup is the largest sporting event in human history. Forty-eight nations. Sixteen host cities. An audience measured in billions. And for the first time since 1994, it's happening here — in the United States. If you're among the millions of Americans who are curious but not quite sure what they're watching, this book is for you. In seven short chapters, journalist Jim Stovall covers the ground that matters most: why more nations belong to FIFA than to the United Nations, how a thirteen-team tournament on the coast of Uruguay became the most-watched competition on earth, why the game's sparse scoring creates drama that nothing else quite matches, how FIFA manages to be both a nonprofit and a multi-billion-dollar institution at the same time, why matches between certain nations are never just games, why America has always been the great exception to the sport's global dominance, and what's genuinely new about the 2026 tournament. Written in the curious-outsider voice of the I'm No Expert, But series, this book won't turn you into an expert. It will give you enough to understand what you're watching — and enough to want to watch more. I'm No Expert, But: curious, a little lost, and taking notes.
