FIFA Reveals World Cup 2026 Best XI Without Ronaldo

FIFA announced the official Team of the Tournament for the 2026 World Cup, selected by fans, with Spain leading the lineup with three players: defender Marc Cucurella, full-back Pedro Porro, and midfielder Rodri. The team, arranged in a 4-3-3 formation, includes standout performers from seven countries during the tournament co-hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

Argentina's captain Lionel Messi and defender Lisandro Martínez represent the runners-up, while France contributes three players: Golden Boot winner Kylian Mbappé, winger Michael Olise, and centre-back Dayot Upamecano. England's Jude Bellingham, Norway's Erling Haaland, and Cape Verde's Vozinha complete the eleven.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored three goals, did not make the team after Portugal's exit in the Round of 16 against Spain. Mbappé was the tournament's top scorer with ten goals, while Messi scored eight goals and provided four assists, playing a crucial role in Argentina's journey to the final.
