NYT Sports Connections Game for June 11, 2026

Today's game is about soccer.

This game is a version of the popular New York Times word game for sports fans.

The game is about finding common things between words. It gets harder each day, so we have hints to help.

You can see the answer at the end or keep reading for clues.

The New York Times made this game with The Athletic. You can play on a computer or phone.

There are 16 words and four groups. Each group has a color: yellow, green, blue, and purple.

If you get a group right, those words go away. If not, it's a mistake. You can make four mistakes.

You can move the words around to help. You can also share your results on social media.

Want a hint about the groups? Try these:

Yellow is about game places.

Green is about other team names.

Blue is about a player.

Purple is about teammates.

Need more help? The groups are about these things:

Yellow is about the 2026 World Cup cities.

Green is about World Cup team nicknames.

Blue is about Christian Pulisic's teams.

Purple is about Argentina's World Cup players.
