A British man has become the first person in history to attend all 64 FIFA World Cup matches this year. Theo Ogden, a popular content creator set a World record after he attended every game in Qatar.
Dubbed by him as 'The Impossible Challenge', Ogden documented his attendance at every match at the recently concluded tournament.
“What a World Cup that was…64/64 World Cup matches attended and the Argentines took it home. A mix of emotions, many ups and downs but an unreal experience. Thank you all,” Ogden tweeted with a photo of him and his friends donning Argentina jerseys and Lionel Messi and Diego Maradona posters.

In another post, he wrote, ''Thank you for everything Qatar! How was it physically possible to visit 64 matches in 28 days?! Something to tell the grandkids. From trips to the desert, to having Arabic dinners with local families, the last month has been one I'll never forget. Let's not forget, we witnessed the best tournament in football history. Time to fly back, Thoggo.'' A poster of the Guinness World Record stating him as record holder also featured in his post. It reads, ''Most capped World cup attendee. 64 Caps.''
FIFA World Cup’s Twitter handle congratulated Ogden for the feat to which he responded: “Thank you for making it possible!”
