The 2026 FIFA World Cup has officially come to a dramatic close, and Zweli is joined by sports analyst Worship Freemantle to dissect the highs, the lows, and the pure madness of the biggest tournament on the planet!

From off-the-pitch scandals including denied visa applications and fierce referee backlash—to the lingering shadow of FIFA corruption allegations, the guys leave no stone unturned. They deliver an unfiltered debrief on the lackluster final between Spain and Argentina, unpack why the high-profile halftime show completely missed the mark, and break down the stark contrast in fan behavior between the peaceful England vs. France clash and the hostility witnessed from segments of the Argentine crowd.

Plus, we examine the tournament’s major accolades! Why did Kylian Mbappé walk away with the Golden Boot over Lionel Messi? What does this tournament mean for the future of global football as the spotlight shifts toward Qatar? Tune in for the ultimate, unfiltered wrap-up of World Cup 2026!

Spend weekday afternoons with Zweli. He keeps you in the loop with everything from music and movies to sport and pop culture.  

Hear what the Word on the Street is, test your skills with the high-pressure 6 Out of 6, and get ready to be entertained.
