Who am I? Guess World Cup star No 36
Retold by Oddsrama · 13 July 2026

The BBC has rolled out another round of their popular "Who am I?" guessing game, and this time you're tasked with figuring out World Cup star number 36. It's a straightforward challenge: identify the mystery footballer in as few attempts as possible, unlocking fresh clues with each wrong guess to help you along the way.
Here's how it works. Every day brings a new player, and your goal is to crack the riddle before running out of guesses. Land the answer after just one or two clues and you're in elite company—anything beyond three attempts and you're doing decently, but four or five clues means you've genuinely earned bragging rights. The scoring rewards speed and knowledge, so if you're confident about your World Cup facts, this is where you prove it.
For anyone chasing the thrill of football trivia, the BBC has stacked their quiz section with plenty more challenges. You can hunt down every nation at the 2026 World Cup, test yourself on the Lionesses' record caps, or name the leading scorers for top international sides. Sign up for notifications and you'll get fresh quizzes delivered straight to your phone every single day. It's the kind of quick mental workout that fits perfectly into your morning scroll or lunch break—especially handy if you're tracking form and stats across different squads ahead of major tournaments.
