The only game that all soccer fans expect could be played at the 2026 North-China World Cup.
Global sports media ESPN reported on the 6th (Korea time) 'The possibility of Lionel Messi's quarterfinal match between Argentina and Cristiano Ronaldo in the World Cup has been confirmed'
ESPN confirmed that Argentina will begin defending the champions' title against Algeria through the draw for the 2026 North American World Cup. If Lionel Messi confirms his 6th appearance at the North-China World Cup, he will face Algeria, Austria and Jordan in Group J. Cristiano Ronaldo also said this could be his last chance to win the World Cup before retiring. Ronaldo has already participated in five World Cups, with Portugal in Group K with the winner of the intercontinental play-off between Congo and Jamaica and New Caledonia in the group stage, as well as Uzbekistan and Colombia.

"If Argentina led by Messi and Portugal led by Ronaldo win both the group stages and win the round of 32 and 16, they will face off in the quarterfinals," he said, explaining that Messi and Ronaldo could face off at the World Cup.
Messi and Ronaldo have been the best rivals in football for the past 15 years. After Ronaldo won the Ballon d'Or in 2008, the two players shared the Ballon d'Or until Luca Modric won the award in 2018, and the number of Ballon d'Or won by the two players alone reached 13. The two players formed the best Liberals by 2017 with a 5-5 tie in the number of Ballon d'Or, after which Messi won more Ballon d'Or in 2019 and 2021, and Messi added the 2023 award to further increase the number.
Apart from the number of Ballon d'Or, the two players proved to be the best rival in soccer, producing numerous fans based on their different styles and strengths. Fans were fascinated by the fact that Barcelona, Real Madrid, South America and Europe, left and right feet, short and tall, playmaker and goaltender were perfectly opposed to each other.

However, the confrontation between the two players has rarely been seen since Ronaldo left Real. In addition, Ronaldo's transfer to Alnasr and Messi's transfer to Inter Miami in 2023 will be completed, and the possibility of the two players meeting at the stadium has disappeared. However, the possibility of a face-off on the stage, which could be the last World Cup between the two players, has increased, and more attention has been paid to the game between the two players.
According to the match table, if Argentina passes at the top of Group J, Portugal passes at the top of Group K, and wins both the round of 32 and the round of 16, the showdown will take place in the quarterfinals. There is no dramatic possibility of facing the final, but it is clear that the confrontation between the two players will be the best box office factor in the competition. Attention is also focusing on whether the two legends, who represented the world, will be able to compete against each other at this World Cup.
