Haftime show that eclipsed the World Cup itself

The 23rd World Cup ended in New Jersey, where Spain won the title after a tense fight with Argentina. The tournament, consisting of 104 matches, was marked not only by sports achievements, but also by scandals. Particular attention was attracted by the halftime show in the finale, which turned into an enchanting break, which clearly went beyond traditions.
On the field of MetLife Stadium, where the final was held, for almost an hour and a half, a variety of stars performed: from Madonna and Gustavo Dudamel with the Muppets to BTS, Justin Bieber, Shakira and Burna Boy, as well as Chris Martin’s team with Coldplay and a children’s choir. Post Malone, Jennifer Hudson, Robbie Williams and Tom Cruise were responsible for the show.
Although the halftime show has drawn mixed reactions (including from Wayne Rooney, who called it "shit"), FIFA is likely to declare the experiment triumphant.
