Who Am I? Guess the World Cup Star – Quiz No. 9
Short overview

BBC Sport has launched the ninth edition of its popular 'Who Am I?' football quiz, challenging fans to identify a World Cup star using a series of clues. The game, set by BBC Sport's Huzaifah Khan, is designed to test football knowledge while offering a daily dose of interactive entertainment.
How the Quiz Works
The rules are straightforward: each day, a new footballer is featured, and participants must guess their identity in as few attempts as possible. After each incorrect guess, an additional clue is unlocked, helping narrow down the options. The fewer guesses used, the higher the score—three guesses is considered good, while four or five is exceptional.
Scoring and Participation
Players are encouraged to return daily for new challenges. The quiz is part of a broader collection of football and sports quizzes available on BBC Sport's dedicated pages. Users can sign up for notifications to receive the latest quizzes directly on their devices.
More Quizzes Available
