Team England headquartered in nearby Meadowbrook Park for their World Cup run and finally departed for good on Friday - to play their third place match (which they won). I saw their bus leaving and I may have seen one player on a Sunday morning early but otherwise just enjoyed the hype. This was their farewell message from the hotel/Prairie Village.
Ecuador star defender Willian Pacho and Argentina’s Messi are depicted on the side of Señorita Margarita on Main St. in a new mural. The mural drew several Ecuador fans to have their photos taken and an entrepreneur (far right) selling Ecuador jerseys before Saturday's match at Kansas City Stadium.
Adam and I are showing where Kansas City is in 2026 World Cup events. Below you can see the full map at Crown Center depicting the World Cup sites.
We enjoyed our experience at the FIFA Fan Fest on Liberty Memorial grounds. A lot of folks watching France and Senegal as well as roaming the grounds.
The England soccer team is staying down the street from us in Meadowbrook Park. They are arriving this week but that's all that has been revealed. Interestingly they don't play in Kansas City - it's just their US base.
