The Guardian FootballSmoke, travel and Trump threaten New York’s grand World Cup finale
Wildfires, transport issues and the appearance of the president could overshadow the final for a city that has embraced the tournament The thick smoke that has engulfed New York and much of the eastern seaboard over the past few days has drawn wry smiles in Dallas and Los Angeles, where locals will watch on with a sense of schadenfreude when the World Cup final takes place in the New York New Jersey Stadium (usually known as the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey) on Sunday.

The Guardian FootballGod’s will? Destiny? Lionel Messi, Lamine Yamal, that photo and the World Cup final
The boy in the baby bath has unbelievably become the successor to Messi at Barcelona and now, maybe, on the world stage too “Maybe Lionel Messi has picked up lots of babies, maybe it’s chance, but for those of us who have faith, who believe in something beyond, ‘chance’ is God’s pseudonym when he doesn’t want to sign his name,” Luis de la Fuente says. “In life, everything happens for a reason. Sometimes it’s true that the circle isn’t closed, but in my view there’s something else, something … I don’t know, mystical, spiritual.” Contemplate the scene, gaze upon the image of this World Cup, and you may be inclined to agree with Spain’s coach, to reach out and touch faith.

The Guardian FootballGenuine hope may have been fleeting for England. But it was still life-affirming | Max Rushden
Two minutes and 55 seconds. That’s how long I really had hope of reaching the World Cup final.
