White House shares which nation it wants to win World Cup - and the reason why

White House shares which nation it wants to win World Cup highlights a pro-England stance from a senior White House figure as the tournament heads into Sunday’s final. Andrew Giuliani, executive director of the White House Task Force on the FIFA World Cup 2026, says he wants England to lift the trophy, even though the United States is out of the competition. He links his optimism to the storyline of England coming to America to win during the 250th anniversary of US independence, despite England’s limited global success since 1966. Giuliani also believes Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham can drive the team, stressing their balance and England’s potential to go all the way. Kane is described as a favorite of President Trump, who plans to attend the trophy ceremony, and Kane recounts playing golf with Trump in 2024.
