KANSAS CITY, Mo. — For soccer fans across Kansas City, Friday will be a day of celebration and anticipation ahead of tomorrow night's FIFA 2026 World Cup quarterfinal match.
This morning, Team England departed their base camp in Prairie Village and took off, bound for Miami ahead of their quarterfinal match at 4 p.m. Saturday against Norway.
There's a second quarterfinal match on Saturday, and that's the one that has all the attention here in Kansas City, as Argentina will take on Switzerland at 8 p.m. at Kansas City Stadium.
Fans from both countries have been arriving over the last few days in Kansas City ahead of the match.
On Thursday night, Argentina fans gathered at Los Hornos in the Northland for the first of several rallies. More are scheduled on Friday night (see list below).
