I enjoyed it more than people online seem to admit. The crowd looked incredible, and I liked that it felt connected to the host country instead of just being a random celebrity concert.

It was fine, but not unforgettable. Maybe the problem is that every big event now gets hyped for weeks, so anything short of spectacular feels disappointing.

I thought the cultural parts were the strongest. I would rather see something that represents the host country than a show that feels like a Super Bowl copy.

For me it dragged a little. I know ceremonies are part of the event, but once the teams are ready, I just want the match to start.

People are too harsh. It gave the tournament a big-event feeling, the stadium was alive, and everyone was talking about it. That means it did its job.
