LISA, Anitta, and Rema have joined forces for "GOALS," the official anthem for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Released through FIFA Sound, the track arrives with a cinematic music video designed for stadiums, social media, and viral fan edits.
Produced by Grammy-winning hitmaker Cirkut, "GOALS" blends K-pop, Latin pop, and Afrobeats while letting each artist keep their signature sound. LISA delivers sharp charisma, Anitta brings Brazilian energy, and Rema ties it all together with melodic Afrobeats hooks.

Three Continents. One Track. Zero Subtlety.
Produced by Grammy-winning hitmaker Cirkut, "GOALS" blends K-pop, Latin pop, and Afrobeats without losing each artist's identity. LISA brings swagger, Anitta delivers Brazilian energy, and Rema rounds it out with melodic hooks built for stadium singalongs and viral moments.

LISA’s World Cup Era Is Fully Here.
LISA’s presence on the track feels especially significant.
Fresh off dominating music, fashion, and luxury campaigns, the BLACKPINK star joins FIFA's growing cultural universe—where football, music, fashion, and internet culture collide.
Speaking about the collaboration, LISA shared:
“Being a part of the Official FIFA World Cup Album this year has been so exciting. Music always unites people across the world, so it has been an honor to work with Anitta and Rema.”
And honestly? That global crossover energy is exactly what this song feels built around.

If there’s one artist who naturally fits inside a World Cup anthem, it’s Anitta.
The Brazilian superstar described her connection to the tournament as deeply personal, saying:
“I’m Brazilian, after all, of course I have wonderful memories tied to the tournament. It’s incredibly special to now contribute to its history.”
That emotional connection absolutely comes through in the track’s energy.
Her sections feel loud, celebratory, rhythmic, and deeply rooted in the same street-football atmosphere that made Brazil one of football’s cultural capitals.

Rema Quietly Delivers The Song’s Biggest Hook
Rema's melodic vocals tie the track together, giving "GOALS" the stadium-ready hook FIFA was aiming for. It's the kind of chorus built for opening ceremonies, fan edits, stadium chants, and viral TikTok clips. Rema summed up the collaboration perfectly:
“Three continents, one track…bringing all our sounds together like this is a big moment for music on the world stage.”
And that’s really the core idea behind this entire rollout.
FIFA Is Clearly Marketing Culture — Not Just Football
"GOALS" feels like part of a much bigger strategy.
Rather than creating another football anthem, FIFA is positioning the World Cup as a global entertainment brand where music, fashion, creators, and internet culture all play a role.
Previous releases like "Lighter," "Por Ella," "Echo," and "Illuminate" hinted at this approach. With "GOALS," FIFA continues expanding the tournament beyond the pitch and into playlists, social media, and pop culture.
The Official FIFA World Cup 2026™ Album doesn’t feel like background music for the tournament. It feels like FIFA is trying to build an entire entertainment universe around the World Cup itself.

They’re Performing It LIVE At The Opening Ceremony
FIFA has confirmed that LISA, Anitta, and Rema will perform "GOALS" live during the opening ceremony at Los Angeles Stadium ahead of the opening match on Friday, June 12.
Whether it becomes a World Cup classic remains to be seen, but "GOALS" is already one of FIFA's strongest attempts to make the tournament a global cultural event—not just a football competition.
