But soccer is a cruel sport that often dashes dreams. Except this time.[aside tag=\"world-cup, soccer\" label=\"More Related Stories\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>France is the defending champion and no country has won back-to-back World Cup titles in 60 years (Brazil, in 1962, was the last). \u003cem>Les Bleus\u003c/em> enter this match on a roll and stocked with talent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let's start with \u003ca href=\"https://kylianmbappe.com/en/\">Kylian Mbappé\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He's scored \u003ca href=\"https://www.fifa.com/fifaplus/en/watch/GrXPr-F7gUyrpCEoPifMrw\">five goals\u003c/a> this tournament (tied for the most with Messi) and four in 2018. He has unbelievable speed and his ballhandling and trickery are otherworldly. Just 23, the comparisons to Brazil's legendary Pelé continue to pile up (in 2018, Mbappé became the first teenager to score at a World Cup final since Pelé in 1958 and this year he surpassed Pelé's World Cup scoring record for a player under 24 with his 9 total goals). And, unlike Messi, Mbappé has a World Cup title (sorry, it had to be said).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But soccer is a team sport with ten other players on the field. While most attention goes to Mbappé or Olivier Giroud (France's all-time goal leader), one of France's most important players in Qatar has been Antoine Griezmann. Formally an attacker, but sent to the midfield after a bevy of French injuries, Griezmann has shined - charging forward to create scoring opportunities and dropping back to defend. He's kept the team together with his creativity and ingenuity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Coming into this World Cup – both countries \u003ca href=\"https://olympics.com/en/news/fifa-world-cup-winners-list-champions-record\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">had won this tournament twice before\u003c/a>. France (1998 and 2018) and Argentina (1978 and 1986). For Argentina star Lionel Messi it's the lone trophy missing from his illustrious career. The 35-year-old is one of the finest to ever play the game – but he's never been able to say he's a World Cup champion. He made it to the final once before – in 2014 – but Argentina lost to Germany. This is expected to be his last World Cup match.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he takes the field against France, Messi will set a FIFA record for the most number of games played in a men's World Cup competition: 26. Earlier in the tournament, he scored his 11th goal - the most ever for an Argentinian. He also has had an assist in five World Cups - the first man to do so. Coming into the final, \u003ca href=\"https://www.fifa.com/fifaplus/en/watch/U-48Uq6HFEO239wSuwBhZw\">Messi leads in the Golden Boot competition\u003c/a> as the tournament's top goal-scorer. While Messi and Mbappé have each scored five goals, Messi has an edge in the tiebreak (three assists to Mbappé's two).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Messi is in an elite club - but despite all his records and success, he will always be in the shadow of the great Argentine Diego Maradona - unless he can win a World Cup trophy for his country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The game will kickoff at 7am PT on Sunday.

He has unbelievable speed and his ballhandling and trickery are otherworldly. Just 23, the comparisons to Brazil's legendary Pelé continue to pile up (in 2018, Mbappé became the first teenager to score at a World Cup final since Pelé in 1958 and this year he surpassed Pelé's World Cup scoring record for a player under 24 with his 9 total goals). And, unlike Messi, Mbappé has a World Cup title (sorry, it had to be said).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But soccer is a team sport with ten other players on the field. While most attention goes to Mbappé or Olivier Giroud (France's all-time goal leader), one of France's most important players in Qatar has been Antoine Griezmann. Formally an attacker, but sent to the midfield after a bevy of French injuries, Griezmann has shined - charging forward to create scoring opportunities and dropping back to defend. He's kept the team together with his creativity and ingenuity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Coming into this World Cup – both countries \u003ca href=\"https://olympics.com/en/news/fifa-world-cup-winners-list-champions-record\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">had won this tournament twice before\u003c/a>. France (1998 and 2018) and Argentina (1978 and 1986). For Argentina star Lionel Messi it's the lone trophy missing from his illustrious career. The 35-year-old is one of the finest to ever play the game – but he's never been able to say he's a World Cup champion. He made it to the final once before – in 2014 – but Argentina lost to Germany. This is expected to be his last World Cup match.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he takes the field against France, Messi will set a FIFA record for the most number of games played in a men's World Cup competition: 26. Earlier in the tournament, he scored his 11th goal - the most ever for an Argentinian. He also has had an assist in five World Cups - the first man to do so. Coming into the final, \u003ca href=\"https://www.fifa.com/fifaplus/en/watch/U-48Uq6HFEO239wSuwBhZw\">Messi leads in the Golden Boot competition\u003c/a> as the tournament's top goal-scorer. While Messi and Mbappé have each scored five goals, Messi has an edge in the tiebreak (three assists to Mbappé's two).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Messi is in an elite club - but despite all his records and success, he will always be in the shadow of the great Argentine Diego Maradona - unless he can win a World Cup trophy for his country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The game will kickoff at 7am PT on Sunday.

That is, the men play a game that while it's the same in terms of rules and length of time and international competition, the revenues and the high profile and the market conditions of the men's sport are different than the women's sport. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On how the members of the women's team have used their on-field success to move this issue forward over the years:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is an amazing story of the women who are leading the charge, and there's a veritable wave of others who are behind them in this case. There are four headliners who persist from a 2016 suit that was filed with the Equal Opportunity Employment Commission. That's Alex Morgan, Carli Lloyd, Megan Rapinoe and Becky Sauerbrunn. They're architects of not just one lawsuit, but a multi-year legal strategy. And that's an effort to try to realize the hopes of women who for decades have been achieving more prominence in international sports. They're rejecting an idea that they should be grateful just for the chance to play even if they only get a fraction of what men make. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11757990\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37903_GettyImages-1152562075-qut-800x542.jpg\" alt=\"Megan Rapinoe (L) and Alex Morgan (R) have been fighting for pay equity for years.\" width=\"800\" height=\"542\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11757990\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37903_GettyImages-1152562075-qut-800x542.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37903_GettyImages-1152562075-qut-160x108.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37903_GettyImages-1152562075-qut-1020x691.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37903_GettyImages-1152562075-qut-1200x813.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37903_GettyImages-1152562075-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Megan Rapinoe (L) and Alex Morgan (R) have been fighting for pay equity for years. \u003ccite>(FRANCK FIFE/AFP/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Billie Jean King talked about this decades ago. She said, \"Everyone thinks women should be thrilled when we get crumbs, and I want women to have the cake, the icing and the cherry on top, too.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This issue is not just playing out in soccer. It's not just playing out in the U.S. The Spanish women's soccer team, the team that the U.S. just defeated earlier this week, they actually rose up and requested a new coach in opposition some years ago, plus women in other sports have taken this up. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Venus and Serena Williams have been the heirs to Billie Jean King's advocacy around pay equity and tennis.

So in many ways, I think this could set a flag out for where pay equity needs to go because it's involving some of the most high profile and highly paid women athletes who are out there.

While the final cities selected to host games will be finalized over the next two years, San Francisco and Los Angeles are among the 17 cities in the U.S. being considered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The united North American bid was selected over a competing bid from Morocco, in a vote among some 203 FIFA members that was held in Moscow on the eve of the 2018 World Cup, hosted by Russia. World Cup games start Thursday, but the U.S. men's team was eliminated in qualification and will not be competing. The tally was 134 votes for the united bid and 65 votes for Morocco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Thank you so, so very much for this incredible honor,\" Carlos Cordeiro, president of the U.S. Soccer Federation, said after the vote was taken. \"Thank you for entrusting us with this privilege.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It will be the first time three countries have joined to host the World Cup — previously, South Korea and Japan had jointly hosted the 2002 Cup. The plan calls for the U.S. to host 60 matches, and its neighbors to host 10 each. A final list of 16 cities, across the three countries, will be finalized in 2021, but will likely include three in Mexico, three in Canada and the remaining 10 in the U.S. After some cities withdrew from bidding consideration, the list has been narrowed down to: Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey (in Mexico); Edmonton, Montreal and Toronto (in Canada); and Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Nashville, Orlando, Miami, Cincinnati, Kansas City, Dallas, Houston, Denver, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle (in the U.S.).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, games would be played at Levi's Stadium, and in Los Angeles, games would take place at either the Rose Bowl or the currently under construction NFL stadium in Inglewood or potentially the Coliseum in L.A.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The last time the U.S. hosted a World Cup match was in 1994; Mexico first hosted in 1970.

Mexico is set to become the only country to host three World Cups, having also hosted in 1986.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Responding to years of scandals and suspicions over its selection process, FIFA sought to position this vote as a transparent and open process. After the vote was tallied, FIFA revealed \u003ca href=\"https://resources.fifa.com/image/upload/voting-results-for-the-2026-fifa-world-cup.pdf?cloudid=vpnl19m2xr8zk50mnor3\">how each country had voted\u003c/a>, for instance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>None of the hopeful host countries took part in the vote; neither did U.S. territories that have soccer federations, such as Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among countries that have been in the news lately, here are some votes that stuck out: North Korea voted for Morocco, as did France, the Netherlands and Italy.

While the final cities selected to host games will be finalized over the next two years, San Francisco and Los Angeles are among the 17 cities in the U.S. being considered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The united North American bid was selected over a competing bid from Morocco, in a vote among some 203 FIFA members that was held in Moscow on the eve of the 2018 World Cup, hosted by Russia. World Cup games start Thursday, but the U.S. men's team was eliminated in qualification and will not be competing. The tally was 134 votes for the united bid and 65 votes for Morocco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Thank you so, so very much for this incredible honor,\" Carlos Cordeiro, president of the U.S. Soccer Federation, said after the vote was taken. \"Thank you for entrusting us with this privilege.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It will be the first time three countries have joined to host the World Cup — previously, South Korea and Japan had jointly hosted the 2002 Cup. The plan calls for the U.S. to host 60 matches, and its neighbors to host 10 each. A final list of 16 cities, across the three countries, will be finalized in 2021, but will likely include three in Mexico, three in Canada and the remaining 10 in the U.S. After some cities withdrew from bidding consideration, the list has been narrowed down to: Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey (in Mexico); Edmonton, Montreal and Toronto (in Canada); and Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Nashville, Orlando, Miami, Cincinnati, Kansas City, Dallas, Houston, Denver, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle (in the U.S.).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, games would be played at Levi's Stadium, and in Los Angeles, games would take place at either the Rose Bowl or the currently under construction NFL stadium in Inglewood or potentially the Coliseum in L.A.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The last time the U.S. hosted a World Cup match was in 1994; Mexico first hosted in 1970.
