Welcome to the Conversation
We’re approaching the end of the group stages of the biggest World Cup ever. The Guardian’s coverage of the tournament has been greatly enhanced this year by the expansion of our soccer/football team in the United States.
Correspondents Alexander Abnos, Pablo Iglesias Maurer and Jeff Rueter have been as busy as you’d expect over the first few weeks of the tournament.
Since hanging out with Zohran Mamdani to play our Bracketology game before the tournament, Alex has been busy covering the United States’ impressive start to the tournament as well as Iran’s difficult trips to play in LA; Pablo had the honour of watching Lionel Messi become the World Cup’s all-time top goalscorer in Dallas and Jeff has also been on the West Coast covering the USMNT and Canada’s big 6-0 win in Vancouver.
Alex, Pablo and Jeff will be live here at 5PM BST, 12PM EST, 9AM PDT. Ask them anything about the tournament so far: from the impact in the United States itself to who’s going to win the whole thing based on the first fortnight of matches.
Post your question in the comments now. In the meantime heres some reading:
