Curaçao Match

Capturing the electrifying energy of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, this gallery kicks off with Germany’s spectacular 7-1 opening victory against Curaçao on June 14, 2026. While the match was being played live at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas, I was celebrating the action right here in Vancouver at the Official Jägermeister German House inside the Dublin Calling Pub on Granville Street, sharing my niece’s very first World Cup game over German swag and a flood of goals. As the publisher of Westcoast German News, I spent the entire tournament embedded in the vibrant atmosphere of our local Host City, experiencing the global football phenomenon through a colorful mix of lively local watch parties and the unforgettable thrill of attending a live match in person at BC Place Stadium.
