After an 87-minute PR farce with praise for US President Donald Trump and a production by FIFA boss Gianni Infantino, a draw for the 2026 World Cup in the USA, Canada and Mexico actually took place in Washington on Friday. The Austrian national team has chosen defending champions Argentina, Algeria and Jordan as opponents. Former NBA star Shaquille O’Neal moved Austria into Group J, whose games will be played in Kansas City, Santa Clara near San Francisco and Dallas. The exact venues and kick-off times will be announced on Saturday evening.
