Anthempedia

The "FIFA Hymn" or "FIFA Anthem" is an instrumental song played at the beginning of FIFA-sponsored events, such as futsal and association football (U.S. soccer) matches and tournaments, such as the FIFA World Cup or any other association football competitions), usually as the participants enter the playing area. Occasionally, there have been instances where a different song has been used in its place, such as Vangelis' "Anthem" used at the 2002 FIFA World Cup.

Since the 2018 FIFA World Cup and 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup, a new anthem, "Living Football" is used as the entrance music when Both team's national flags and FIFA flags enter the ground, and "Seven Nation Army" by The White Stripes is used for the players entrance.
