The South American Football Confederation CONMEBOL repeated its demand to expand the 2030 World Cup to include 64 teams for one time only, just one day after the conclusion of the first edition featuring 48 teams. Spain won the World Cup on Sunday for the second time after defeating defending champions Argentina 1-0 after extra time at the New York New Jersey stadium in the United States. Alejandro Dominguez, president of CONMEBOL, called on Monday in a message posted on social media for the expansion of the tournament, urging the International Federation FIFA to expand the centenary edition of the tournament. Dominguez, who participated in distributing World Cup awards, wrote: 'The next edition will be on our soil in 2030, and this will be a great opportunity for football to celebrate the centenary of the World Cup with a tournament featuring 64 teams.' Under the current approved plan, Spain, Portugal, and Morocco will host the tournament, while Uruguay, Argentina, and Paraguay will host the opening matches on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the first tournament in 1930 in Uruguay. It is recalled that Gianni Infantino, president of the International Federation, previously announced that the relevant committees would seriously discuss the proposal after the end of the 2026 World Cup. However, the proposal faces strong opposition from Aleksander Ceferin, president of UEFA, who described the idea as 'very bad' because it weakens the qualifiers and increases physical fatigue on players.
