The 2026 World Cup is set to be the biggest in history, with 48 countries converging on North America for a month of dazzling drama, chaos and spectacle. But how much do you really know about Uzbekistan’s team, Ecuador’s rising stars or the exact factors behind the recent momentum behind Cape Verde?
‘Make Football Great Again’ is the only podcast ambitious or crazy enough to profile every country heading into the tournament. We are not just looking at the strong players. We set out on a global reconnaissance mission to bring you the ultimate tactical and cultural preview in the lead-up to the World Cup.
