“Matchday Challenge”

lets fans show off their football knowledge by taking on rapid-fire quiz questions. As players answer questions correctly, they advance up the pitch until they score a goal. The more goals they score, the more exclusive digital cards players can win as they look to grow their collection, showcased in their custom gallery of FIFA Women’s World Cup women’s player cards from around the world. Players can also square off against the Matchday community by predicting each match’s winner and final score while their growing roster of player cards turbo-charges their rise in their leaderboard.

Matchday is ushering in a new category of sports games wherein fans build virtual squads by collecting digital cards of their favorite footballers. Players have actual ownership of the cards and other digital items that they acquire as part of “Matchday Challenge” as they collect, trade and grow their dream team. As the Matchday ecosystem grows, players will continue to be able to play with their FIFA Women’s World Cup cards across any Matchday future titles.

Matchday previously saw success with the launch of the limited-time “Matchday Challenge: FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Edition,” which coincided with last year’s FIFA Men’s World Cup. The mini-game saw nearly 600,000 signups during the tournament, with more than two million player cards distributed.
