It can be adjusted in order to have as neutral grounds as possible again since the knockout stage.

A few last points, it was not possible to select some nice stadiums in the interest of geographical distribution and equity (Spurs’ stadium, Arsenal’s and manys in the British Isles, the Metropolitano in Madrid, Berlin’s Olympiastadion, the Puskas stadium, others elsewhere in the Americas, Africa and Asia…).

We can count one more venue as Wembley has its two versions, old and new.

We’ll travel in space and time for the Final, otherwise, it’s all the current stadiums versions.

The FYT All-Time World Cup final will be played at Old Wembley Stadium
