The Guardian FootballFrom Hart to Seedorf to Kewell: standout pundits of the 2026 World Cup
We pick six of the best analysts to feature at the World Cup in North America on screens in the UK, US and Australia Joe Hart There’s long been a feeling that, when it comes to punditry, only goalkeepers should talk about goalkeepers given the unique nature of the role. That view will have been strengthened by Hart’s appearances during this World Cup. The former England No 1 has been an authoritative voice on all things shot-stopping, providing the sort of insight and analysis only a man who has been there, done that and worn the gloves can. Highlights include his flagging of keepers getting a hand to long-range efforts but not being able to keep them out and how this definitely wasn’t normal, and how a subtle left-sided weight emphasis was the reason Jordan Pickford was done at his near post for the Democratic Republic of the Congo’s goal against England in Atlanta. This sort of thing, allied to passionate yet crisp oratory, has made Hart a big asset for the BBC, whose decision to stay at home has meant it needs as much punch as it can get.

The Guardian FootballIs Neymar the first to bookend his international career with goals at the same venue? | The Knowledge
Plus: national team colours that are different from flags; Senegal’s goal difference record setters; and Scotland’s unbeaten 1974 tournament Mail us with your all of your questions and answers “Neymar’s consolation penalty against Norway at the World Cup means his first international goal, scored on his first cap, was in the same stadium (MetLife) as his last international goal on his final cap,” writes Griffin Cant. “Are there any other players who have bookended their international career in a similar way?” Over 77,000 people were at the MetLife Stadium on 10 August 2010 as Neymar made his Brazil bow in a friendly against the USA. The fresh-faced, dodgy-haircutted 18-year-old scored after just 28 minutes , a thumping header past Tim Howard in the USA goal. Nearly 16 years later, he rolled his penalty – his 80th goal for his country on his 130th appearance – past Norway’s Ørjan Nyland at the same end of the stadium as Brazil exited the World Cup in the last 16 and followed it by announcing his retirement from international duty.

The Guardian FootballNewcastle close in on signing Ajax generational talent Sean Steur for £23m
Howe rebuilding side after Tonali and Gordon exits Widely hyped as Amsterdam club’s next De Jong Newcastle are close to completing the signing of Sean Steur from Ajax for about £23m. The two-footed central midfielder is only 18 but has been widely hyped as the Amsterdam club’s brightest emerging midfield talent since Frenkie de Jong. While De Jong left for Barcelona in 2019, Steur, who can operate as a No 6 or a No 8, seems almost certainly Tyneside bound. At St James’ Park he is likely to start next season competing with Lewis Miley to fill Sandro Tonali’s old central midfield role and will be given time to adjust to the Premier League’s physicality.
