The 2026 World Cup introduced something new for football fans. Before matches, players can now make short gestures or "emotes" in two-to-three-second videos.

This is a change from how things were before, when player lineups were just simple lists of names. Now, players can show a bit of their personality or mood before the game starts.

During the group stage of the tournament, there were a lot of these gestures. In total, players made 747 different gestures. It's interesting to see how players use this new way to express themselves.
