No foreign coach has ever won the World Cup — and 2026 will be no exception

No national team managed by a foreign coach has ever won the FIFA World Cup, and the 2026 edition will maintain that record. The final will be contested between Spain, coached by Luis de la Fuente, and Argentina, led by Lionel Scaloni — both native coaches. The so-called curse of the foreign manager therefore cannot be broken at this tournament.

Can a foreign coach ever win the FIFA World Cup?

NBP's unrealised gold profit shrank by PLN 65 bn in four months

The unrealised profit on gold held by Poland's central bank (NBP), cited as the basis of the "Polish SAFE 0 percent" scheme, has shrunk by over PLN 65 billion since February. Despite this drop, the figure remains significantly higher than it was two or three years ago. The gold profit represents only part of the NBP's overall financial result.

Should the NBP increase its gold reserves despite the risk of falling valuations?

Alien: Isolation Outshines the Films With a Better Survival Horror Lead

The survival horror game Alien: Isolation, set between the first and second Alien films, is praised as the franchise's best non-Weaver instalment, with Amanda Ripley (Ellen's daughter) as its lead. The article argues she proves the Ripley legacy works without Sigourney Weaver's presence. The broader Alien franchise has expanded via Ridley Scott's prequels, Alien: Romulus, and the TV series Alien: Earth. The author considers Alien: Isolation ripe for a screen adaptation.

Poland's Trade Deficit Grows – But Experts Say It's Not Necessarily Bad News

Poland's foreign trade deficit is set to deepen further in 2026, driven primarily by strong import growth as the domestic economy expands. Analysts note that export weakness is largely due to sluggish demand in Western Europe rather than a structural Polish problem. The trade balance, while notably negative, is not yet considered alarming in this context. Whether the widening gap will become cause for concern depends on how long Western economies remain subdued.

Should Poland's growing trade deficit be a cause for concern?
