I had not been anywhere near the stadium this World Cup, but seeing as how this was the last game hosted by Toronto, and knowing it was a battle between two well represented Toronto communities, this was a match I wanted to get close to the action. Having taken so...

There has been so much great coverage of the project this year. Included below are some of the articles, radio interviews and TV or digital stories on the project. There is no way to ignore the impact hosting the tournament has had on the city and the enthusiasm has bubbled...

Congo DR – 2026

I’ve been trying to avoid doubling up venues this year, but Nganda African Street Food on Adelaide is the kind of venue I could have photographed dozens of games and been at the best location in the city. Broadly supporting teams like Ghana, Senegal, Cote d’Ivoire and Congo DR, among...

Jordan – 2026

Any way you look at it, Jordan had the most challenging EDT schedule of all the teams. All three of Jordan’s games were scheduled at 10 PM or later, making them all night games. I know this might sound strange, but in the 20 years I’ve been photographing this project,...

Austria – 2026

Austria World Cup fans in Toronto didn’t have a huge presence on social media telling everyone where to gather for a watch party, and the few Austrian restaurants in the GTA didn’t seem to have any interest in soccer, so I was left hunting for fans in neutral sites. Fortunately,...

Haiti – 2026

Haiti World Cup fans in Toronto gathered in Pickering for an amazing game watch and party organized by the Haitians of Toronto. People showed up, and the mood was festive and fun. Sure, it was a tough game against Brazil, but there was still so much to be proud of...

Canada – 2026 (Game 2)

Joseph — Fri, 19 Jun 2026 02:58:47 +0000

First win. Big win. Lots of goals and a whole lot of celebrating. I was in the right place and really fortunate to be able to witness it all with so many thousands. These photos kind of speak for themselves, I don’t need to narrate the game or anything, we...

Qatar – 2026

I have spent a lot of time looking for Qatar fans in Toronto. I didn’t end up finding any during the 2022 World Cup, and so when I stumbled upon 3 fans bravely taking in a game surrounded by thousands of Canadian fans at Canada Soccer House, I considered myself...

Ghana – 2026

This was magic. One of my more memorable games without question. Ghana world cup fans in Toronto were treated to the most electric of evenings and I was so happy to be there. And it helps to get a bit of context. Ghana fans were drawn to Sankofa Square because...

Egypt – 2026

Joseph — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 22:43:00 +0000

Egypt fans benefitted from a keen business owner (Mohamed Saleh) who knew this World Cup could be something special. With strong social media presence and welcoming staff, Masrawy Egyptian Kitchen and The Local by Masrawy (located in the same plaza), was a clear choice for Egypt fans to watch the...
