Claim 7: “The knockout stage of the 2026 FIFA World Cup begins on Sunday with South Africa taking on Canada in the first round of 32 tie.”
DISPUTED
While one web search result explicitly states the knockout stage begins with South Africa vs Canada, another web search result explicitly contradicts this, stating the tournament kicks off on June 11 with Mexico playing South Africa. This creates a direct contradiction regarding the opening match and the nature of the South Africa game.
