Soccer

Qualifying games for the 2026 World Cup Finals take place in many parts of the world this week. One of the biggest clashes will take place in Buenos Aires. Argentina host Brazil at Mâs Monumental Stadium on Tuesday night, the first Superclasico de las Americas in 20 years that will not feature either Lionel Messi or Neymar. While Brazil will surely reach the 2026 finals, to be held in North America, five wins out of 12 in this qualifying campaign so far has made their efforts far from comfortable. - Tuesday, Premier Sports

Figure skating

The 2025 World Figure Skating Championships will be held this week at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. The event will determine the entry quotas for each skating federation at the 2026 World Championships and the 2026 Winter Olympics. More than 200 athletes from 40 countries will compete in the four skating disciplines of men, women, pairs and ice dance. Ireland will be represented in the ice dance category by Carolane Soucisse and Shane Firus. - March 25-30th, BBC

Rugby

This weekend, Mayo will host a competitive Connacht rugby fixture for the first time in the professional era. Munster will provide the opposition at MacHale Park in Castlebar in an important URC fixture – both sides are hoping to make the knockout stages of the competition, as well as a qualifying spot for next season’s Champions Cup. - Saturday, TG4 & Premier Sports
