The Moroccan national football team became the first quarter-finalist of the 2026 World Cup (2026 World Cup) in the USA, Canada and Mexico. On Saturday, July 4, the African team beat the Canadian team with a score of 3:0 and came closer to realizing the results of the World Cup “merged” by artificial intelligence (AI), which have been jokingly discussed in the last 24 hours on the social network Reddit.
User tandabat, on the eve of the Morocco-Canada game, shared a screenshot of his Google query about how many days the World Cup will last on the mildlyinfurating subreddit. For unclear reasons, the neural network built into the search engine responded that the championship had already ended with Argentina's victory in the final on July 19 over the Moroccan team.
Asked how long the World Cup lasts, it tried to give me the outcome. Time travel?

In the comments, users joke that Google “leaked the script,” so they saved the picture “just in case.” Someone suggested trying the same method to find out the winning combinations in the lottery, but the AI could not answer this question.
The Moroccan national team does have a chance to play Argentina in the final, as the teams are in different halves of the bracket. To do this, after defeating Canada, she will need to beat the winner of the Paraguay-France pair on July 9 in the quarter-finals, and in the semi-finals to defeat Portugal, Spain, the USA or Belgium – depending on which team turns out to be the strongest in this branch of the tournament.
Argentina is the current world champion at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and will play its next match at the current World Cup on July 7 against the Egyptian team. The game will take place at a stadium in the American city of Atlanta (Georgia).
If successful in the 1/8 finals, the next opponents of Lionel Messi's team will be the winner of the Switzerland-Colombia pair, and in the 1/2 finals, potential opponents could be England, Mexico, Brazil or Norway.
