Apple Sports has expanded its real-time sports coverage to include the 2026 FIFA World Cup, set to begin on June 11 at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. The update allows users to follow the tournament through Live Activities on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, alongside existing support for leagues like MLS, NBA, and Premier League across North America, Europe, and Brazil. To access World Cup matches, users can search for 'FIFA World Cup 2026' and add it to their 'My Leagues' section, with automatic Live Activity updates starting June 11.

This expansion follows the tournament's broad geographic scope, spanning the U.S., Canada, and Mexico through July 19. The app's integration provides a unified platform for tracking both group stages and playoffs leading to the final on July 19.
