The end of the biggest World Cup ever is almost here. Following 100 matches, there are just four teams left and four more games to play.
The tournament has been hosted by three countries: Mexico, Canada, and the US. All of those host countries are now out of the running. The final teams are France, Spain, England, and Argentina. Those teams will play two more semifinal games, another game to determine who gets third place and a final match to end it all.
Going into this year’s World Cup, FIFA anticipated that it would be the most watched tournament in the organization’s history. As the tournament moved into the quarterfinals earlier this month, FIFA noted that more than more than 6.2 million people had attended matches in person, “while millions more follow the action across digital platforms, broadcast, and fan experiences in host cities and around the world.”
You can find the full schedule, which defaults to your local time zone, on the FIFA website.
