BBC Sport Launches Daily Football Guessing Game

Short overview
BBC Sport introduces a daily 'Who am I?' game where readers guess a World Cup star using clues. Players unlock hints after wrong guesses, scoring points for fewer attempts. The feature is part of a new quizzes section.
BBC Sport has launched a new daily interactive feature called 'Who am I?', inviting readers to identify a mystery footballer from the World Cup. The game, which debuted on the BBC Sport website, challenges participants to guess the player's identity using a series of clues.
How the Game Works
The rules are straightforward: each day, a new footballer is selected, and the goal is to guess who they are in as few attempts as possible. After each incorrect guess, a new clue is revealed. The fewer clues needed, the higher the score. A score of three is considered good, while four or five points is exceptional.
Today's player and clues were set by BBC Sport's Adam Millington. The game is part of a broader expansion of quizzes on the BBC Sport platform, which now includes dedicated pages for Football Quizzes and Sports Quizzes. Readers can also sign up for notifications to receive the latest quizzes directly to their device.
Engaging Football Fans
The 'Who am I?' game aims to engage football fans by testing their knowledge of World Cup stars. It adds an interactive element to the BBC Sport offering, encouraging repeat visits and participation. The feature is expected to run daily, with new players and clues each day.
For those who enjoy the challenge, BBC Sport encourages returning for the next installment. Additional quizzes are available on the dedicated Football Quizzes and Sports Quizzes pages, providing a variety of content for sports enthusiasts.
