The popular daily football guessing game is back, this time challenging fans to identify a star from the FIFA World Cup 2026.
The rules of the game remain straightforward, with players tasked with identifying a mystery footballer in as few attempts as possible.
Each incorrect guess rewards the player with a fresh clue, nudging them closer to the correct answer with every attempt.

A score of three is considered a respectable performance, while landing the answer in four or five clues is regarded as exceptional.
