Clean sheets are hard to come by in the 2026 World Cup
The first round of the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico saw an increase in goal-scoring rates, with the matches producing 215 goals in 72 games, averaging 2.99 goals per match — the highest rate since 1958.

Some major teams conceded goals, reflecting the defensive challenges faced in the tournament.
