BBC Sport launches a daily “Who am I?” football quiz, challenging fans to identify a World Cup star from a series of clues. Participants earn points by guessing in as few attempts as possible; three guesses scores well, four or five is exceptional. The first puzzle, curated by Huzaifah Khan, invites users to submit answers and compete for top marks, and share results on social media.

Each incorrect guess unlocks an additional hint, gradually narrowing the field until the answer emerges. Players can track their progress on the dedicated Football Quizzes page, where a leaderboard records high scores. Signing up for notifications ensures new puzzles arrive each morning, turning a simple pastime into a recurring test of football knowledge, and compare performance with friends worldwide.

The quiz taps into the global appetite for World Cup trivia, offering a quick, interactive way for casual fans to engage with current stars. By rewarding efficiency, BBC Sport encourages repeated visits, boosting traffic to its quiz hub. Success hinges on recognizing clues quickly, making every correct answer a small triumph for the participant. It also serves as a subtle promotion for upcoming major tournaments.
