74: World Cup Players

from The Hi-Five Podcast Hosted by The Hi-Five Podcast

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is here — and it's happening right in our backyard. Jay and Caleb break down their top five players to watch at this summer's tournament, counting down from five to one before comparing lists and debating where they agree, where they don't, and who got left off. With Mbappé chasing the all-time scoring record, Messi delivering a first-career hat trick in game one, Kane tying an England record that's stood since 1990, Haaland finally making his World Cup debut, and Folarin Balogun becoming America's breakout star on home soil — there's no shortage of ammunition for the Hi-Five treatment. Leave us your top five World Cup players at speakpipe.com/thehifivepodcast.
