We’re just 44 days away from the start of the FIFA World Cup in the U.S., Mexico and Canada. And we’re now getting some official looks at what the TV-viewing experience will be like in the U.S. from Fox Sports.
Fox — which has the U.S. English-language broadcasting rights for the 2026 World Cup — revealed its in-game broadcasting lineup on Wednesday. And the network is largely bringing back the announcing team from the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

The lead booth will remain the same with John Strong and Stu Holden calling the tournament’s top matches and will likely be on the call for every U.S. men’s national team match.
Ian Darke — who famously called Landon Donovan’s decisive goal against Algeria at the 2010 World Cup — is back sharing a booth with Donovan for Fox’s No. 2 team.
The rest of the announcer lineup looks like this:
Darren Fletcher – Owen Hargreaves
Derek Rae – Robert Green
Ian Crocker – Danny Higginbotham
Jacqui Oatley – Warren Barton
JP Dellacamera – Lori Lindsey
Mark Scott – Cobi Jones
Tyler Terens – Maurice Edu
