The highly anticipated collaboration between Lisa, Anitta and Rema will arrive on 21 May as part of the official soundtrack for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The world of global music has just gained one of its most ambitious collaborations of the year. Lisa, Anitta and Rema have officially confirmed the release of ‘Goals’, the new single set to feature on the official soundtrack for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The track will be released worldwide on 21 May and is already generating enormous anticipation among fans across multiple genres and international markets.
The announcement arrived alongside an energetic first teaser packed with rhythm, movement and sporting references. The preview embraces a visual identity shaped by stadiums, collective euphoria and football passion, building a narrative clearly designed to connect with the tournament’s emotional and global scale.
Beyond the visual impact, the teaser also offered the first glimpse into the song itself, revealing a direct fusion of the three artists’ musical universes. K-pop, Brazilian funk and Afrobeats collide within a production rooted in international pop while still maintaining recognisable elements from each individual scene.
The choice of artists also feels entirely strategic. Lisa, member of BLACKPINK, continues strengthening her position as one of the most influential global figures in Asian music. Anitta has spent years expanding the international reach of Brazilian funk, while Rema has become one of the defining names of Africa’s new musical generation thanks to the unstoppable global rise of Afrobeats.
The announcement immediately sparked intense conversation across social media, with fans from different music communities speculating about the final sound of the track and the possibility of an official music video.
However, the project extends far beyond a digital release. FIFA also confirmed that Lisa, Anitta and Rema will perform as headline acts during the opening ceremony of the 2026 World Cup in the United States alongside artists including Katy Perry and Tyla.
Historically, official World Cup songs often become inseparable from the tournament’s collective memory. Tracks such as ‘Waka Waka’ and ‘La Copa de la Vida’ transcended football to become part of global pop culture. Now, ‘Goals’ appears determined to follow exactly the same path.
