The International Football Federation (FIFA) has announced that the champions of the upcoming World Cup will receive the traditional champion’s trophy, gold medals, and special recognition. This move signals an expansion of award traditions within the sport, bringing a practice common in American sports to the global stage. Specifically, the winners of the final match, scheduled for Sunday between Spain and Argentina, will be awarded the championship trophy.
Beyond the main hardware, FIFA is now promoting the inclusion of medals for the World Cup being held in Saudi Arabia, Mexico, and Canada. According to the announcement, the winning team will be presented with a medal from a strictly limited edition run of 2,026 individually numbered medals. These medals will serve as direct recognition of the tournament achievement.
Furthermore, 30 medals are allocated to the winning team, while 1,996 medals will be available for organizers under an official license. The integration of these medals is intended to enhance the commemorative value of the World Cup. The governing body is formalizing the presentation of these physical awards to ensure that the champions can get tangible, lasting mementos of their victory in this global sporting event.
