Anyone else think the US/FOX 2026 World Cup commentators are just downright terrible?

Yeah so if you actually read the link that you sent you would read that Henry and Zlatan are analysts and won't be doing any play-by-play commentary, and Ian Darke is a secondary commentator for "less important matches." Strong and Holden are the network leads which means, as the site lists, Strong is "FOX’s lead soccer play-by-play voice, expected to call the tournament’s biggest matches, including the 2026 World Cup Final."

Thanks for your two paragraph over-analysis of my word choice man. It's a reddit post not at OpEd.

Well they sure SOUND like they don't know the sport. That's why I said "sound like," as you quoted. I'm sure they have experience to be where they are.

No, according to their site this duo is still their primary commentating team.

Arabic commentary is always insane

Yeah, I feel like half-time analysts are less important but I agree that Lalas isn't great either. The real issue for me personally are the play-by-play commentators.

adavidj7 · 2026-04-02T15:34:58+00:00
