A few fascinating World Cup facts to finish:
• This is the first FIFA World Cup to feature 48 teams.
• The tournament will be hosted across three countries: Canada, Mexico and the United States.
• Matches will be played in 16 host cities spanning multiple time zones.
• More teams means more matches than ever before, making this the largest World Cup in history.
• The tournament will cover thousands of miles across North America, making it one of the most geographically expansive sporting events ever staged.
