Kings World Cup Nations: Full Schedule Announced

Kings World Cup Nations: The Complete Tournament Schedule

The schedule for the Kings World Cup Nations, the new global tournament organized by Kings League, has been unveiled. New year, new tournament. This familiar saying will be followed to the letter, as the first match will be played on the first day of the year—Wednesday, January 1, 2025, at 4:00 p.m. in Milan—and it will be the host nation, Italy, that makes its debut in the opening match against Japan.

Following that, starting at 5:00 p.m. and with one match every hour until 7:00 p.m., the other three matches of the day will take place: Uzbekistan vs. Saudi Arabia, Argentina vs. Spain, and the United States vs. Mexico.

The following day, Thursday, January 2, the remaining national teams will take the field at the same times, as scheduled: at 4:00 p.m., Brazil vs. South Korea; at 5:00 p.m., Turkey vs. Ukraine; at 6:00 p.m., Colombia vs. Morocco; and closing out the day at 7:00 p.m., Peru vs. Germany.

The tournament will then continue with all subsequent matches, based on the results of the first round: the losing teams will face each other, and the winning teams will face each other, on January 3 and 4.

January 5 is a rest day, after which the tournament resumes on Epiphany with the so-called “knockout stage draw,” where matchups will be determined for the “last chance” matches, which will continue the following day before giving way to the scheduled quarterfinals, on January 8 and 9.

The semifinals, on the other hand, will be played on January 10 at 6:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. The winning teams from these two matches will face off in the grand final, scheduled for Sunday, January 12, at 6:00 p.m. at the Allianz Stadium in Turin. There, the first-ever Kings World Cup Nations title will be awarded—an event not to be missed.
