The men's Fifa World Cup kicks off today, presenting a unique challenge for the quiz master: staying awake through countless group matches between teams like Syldavia and Borduria to maintain a streak of watching every World Cup game since 1978, all while functioning as a normal member of society rather than a sleep-deprived zombie.

Your Challenge

Your task is simpler: answer 15 questions covering topical news, general knowledge, and popular culture. There are no prizes, but you also don't have to stay up for a 3am kick-off. Enjoy!
