The first round of World Cup 2026 matches is and means we’ve had the chance to watch every single team in action at the tournament in the USA, Mexico and Canada.
There’s been plenty of entertainment so far. Lionel Messi score a brilliant hat-trick against Algeria, Spain slumped to a goalless draw against Cape Verde and the USMNT produced a thrilling win over Paraguay.
All of which means it’s time once again for the latest edition of SB Nation Reacts and a chance for you to tell us what has been your
favorite match, which team put in the worst performance and which player had the brighest individual showing (no prizes for guessing who might win that one!)
So now it’s time to make your vote, add a comment if you would like, and then check back with us in a few days for all the results.
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts. Be on the lookout for results from the survey soon!
