The 2026 World Cup is now just days from completion, so it's time we take stock and look back at what have been a truly historic five weeks of footballing action.
When the first fixtures kicked off in early June, there were 48 teams still in the tournament, ready to fight for World Cup glory.
Now with just the final — as well as that glorious 3rd place play-off — left to play, we're left with only Spain and Argentina still standing.
So, to kill a bit of time until Sunday's final kicks off, it's time to test your knowledge on those 46 other sides who began the tournament last month.
While the eight sides that have won World Cups before might be an easy enough start, it'll take a real football expert to work out the 40 others, especially those representing nations outside of football's traditional powerhouses of Europe and South America.
Test your knowledge of world football's biggest event by attempting to name all 48 within a ten minute window.
Best of luck...
