Football quiz time, as we look ahead to a World Cup in North America next summer.

The 2026 tournament marks 32 years since World Cup 1994, when football took centre stage in the USA with plenty of pomp and ceremony. But how much do you remember from the tournament? Younger readers will have limited knowledge, of course, but there may still be plenty of recognisable faces in this quiz of some of the tournament’s biggest stars.

The Golden Boot winner and Best Player from the tournament are included in this quiz, with some of the players likely to test even the most dedicated 90s football fans. There are 20 players to name and no time limit, so that means plenty of time to delve deep into the recesses of your memory to pluck out a name long forgotten.

Now, it’s time to trade the denim kits and Diana Ross penalties for a journey through the elite individual honours of the modern era, the unwavering loyalty of one-club legends, and the unfortunate souls who couldn't stop finding their own net. If you are ready to expand your repertoire beyond the nineties, your next set of challenges awaits, once again, courtesy of Kwizly.

We begin by scaling the mountain of individual excellence. Can you name every Ballon d'Or top three since 1992? This is a definitive roll-call of the game's true royalty. Next, we pivot from the sublime to the ridiculous: try to name every player to have scored five or more own goals in Premier League history. It takes a special kind of luck to make this particular list.

Now for a test of endurance and devotion. Can you recall every Premier League player with 300+ appearances for one club? This is a tribute to the rare breed of modern stalwarts. For those who pride themselves on their internal timeline of the game, put your mental calendar to the test and sort these players, clubs and more from earliest to latest.
