Watching World Cup South Africa match with ChatGPT, \'chance of reaching last 32 at 91 percent\'
A reporter watched South Korea’s 2026 FIFA World Cup group match against South Africa using ChatGPT’s football hub, asking about tactics, formations, players and tournament rules. The tool explained lineup choices, the 48-team format and added-time rules, and calculated group-stage scenarios and win-draw-loss probabilities. It also provided qualitative and quantitative match analysis, though it lagged on real-time events and could not identify players from images. After a 1-0 loss, it estimated South Korea’s last-32 chances at 91.2 percent based on Opta.

2026 World Cup official ball Trionda aerodynamics analysed; harder kicks shorten flight distance
A joint South Korea-U.S.-Japan research team tested the 2026 FIFA World Cup official ball, Adidas\'s Trionda, in a wind tunnel and published results in Applied Sciences. The ball recorded a critical speed of 11.9 metres per second in two orientations, the lowest among five World Cup balls studied. Drag stayed stable at corner-kick and free-kick speeds, but simulations showed slightly shorter flight distance, with long kicks dropping a few metres earlier.
