Among the other performers Sunday were Ozuna and Gims singing “Arhbo,” with Nora Fatehi, Balqees, Rahma Riad and Manal performing “Light the Sky.”
There was plenty of controversy surrounding the World Cup taking place in Qatar, but the on-field play created numerous memorable moments for players and fans.
FIFA President Gianni Infantino said this event was “the best World Cup ever.”
It creates a lot to live up to in 2026 as the United States, Mexico and Canada co-host a 48-team tournament.
