Question 1

What is World Cup No Spoilers?

Accepted Answer

World Cup No Spoilers is a free, lightweight website that lists every match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup and links to the official FIFA highlights page for each game — without ever showing the score. You can browse matches in the morning, click through to FIFA, and watch the recap as if it were live.

Question 2

How does the site stay spoiler-free?

Accepted Answer

Match cards display only the two teams, the group, the date, and the kickoff time. There are no scores, no goal counts, no "X won" labels, and no result-revealing thumbnails. The 'Watch highlights' button opens FIFA's official watch page in a new tab — that page also avoids showing the score before the video plays.

Question 3

Where do the highlights come from?

Accepted Answer

Highlights are the official FIFA highlight videos hosted on fifa.com. We don't host any video ourselves — we just link straight to FIFA's spoiler-safe watch URL for each match as soon as it goes live, usually within a few hours of the final whistle.

Question 4

Why are some matches locked?

Accepted Answer

Match cards stay locked until the official FIFA highlights have been published. The site checks FIFA every 15 minutes; as soon as the highlight URL is available it unlocks the card. If a match has finished but no highlight is live yet, the card will say 'Highlights will be ready soon!'.

Question 5

When do highlights become available?

Accepted Answer

Most matches publish official FIFA highlights within 1–3 hours of full-time. The exact gap depends on the broadcaster window, so a card may stay in the 'coming soon' state through the morning before unlocking. Refreshing the page is enough — no signup or notifications needed.

Question 6

What about live matches — can I watch them here?

Accepted Answer

No. This site is built specifically for people who missed the live game and want to watch highlights after the fact without learning the score. Live streaming rights belong to local broadcasters in each country.

Question 7

Does it work on mobile?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The site is responsive and works in any modern mobile browser. The 'Watch highlights' link will open FIFA's watch page in your browser tab; no app install required.

Question 8

Do you track me or collect personal data?

Accepted Answer

No personal data is collected. The site stores no account information, sends no notifications, and does not require signup. Basic anonymous analytics may be used to measure traffic. Full details are in the Privacy Policy.

Question 9

Is this affiliated with FIFA?

Accepted Answer

No. World Cup No Spoilers is an independent, free project. It links to FIFA's official highlight pages but is not produced, sponsored, or endorsed by FIFA.

Question 10

Is it free?

Accepted Answer

Yes, completely free. No account, no paywall, no premium tier. The site may show a brief sponsor message before opening the highlight link, which helps cover hosting.
