Хөлбөмбөг сонирхогчдод зориулсан 2026 оны дөрөв дэх сарын 12-ны өдрийн “Connections: Soccer Edition” тааврын хариултыг танилцуулж байна. Энэхүү тоглоом нь хөлбөмбөгийн 16 нэр томьёог нийтлэг шинж чанараар нь дөрвөн бүлэгт хуваах зорилготой юм.
Өнөөдрийн 32 дахь дугаарын хүндрэлийн түвшин 5-аас 3 буюу дунд зэрэг байна. Үндсэн бүлгүүдийн хариулт дараах байдалтай байна:
- Ла лигт 500-аас дээш тоглолтод оролцсон тоглогчид: Гризманн, Рамос, Раул, Хави.
- Дасгалжуулагчтай холбоотой ойлголтууд: Багийн бүрэлдэхүүн, хувцас солих өрөө, сэлгээ, бэлтгэл.
- Хамгаалалтын элементүүд: Маркинг, такл хийх, бөмбөг чөлөөлөх, прессинг.
- Либертадорес цомын аварга багууд: Расинг, Коло-Коло, Индепендьенте, Фламенго.
“The Athletic”-ийн ахлах редактор Уилл Жинсийн бүтээсэн энэхүү таавар нь 2026 оны Дэлхийн аварга шалгаруулах тэмцээний үеэр тоглогчдын логик сэтгэлгээг сорьж байна. Оролцогчид нийт гурван удаа алдах эрхтэй бөгөөд дөрөв дэх алдаан дээр тоглолт дуусдаг. Дараагийн дугаар орон нутгийн цагаар шөнө дунд шинэчлэгдэх болно.

What is Connections: Soccer Edition?
Connections: Soccer Edition is a new, daily puzzle for the 2026 World Cup designed for players to find connections between 16 words on the game board.
The game’s objective is to group sixteen words or objects into four groups of four based on commonalities within each group as quickly as possible. You are allowed to make three mistakes but fail a fourth time and the game ends with the answers being revealed.
Each puzzle has exactly one solution, so watch out for words or items that seem to belong to multiple categories!
Category examples:
Teams making World Cup debut in 2026: Cape Verde, Jordan, Curaçao, Uzbekistan
Penalty ____: Spot, Kick, Taker, Shootout
Each category group is assigned a color, which is revealed when you solve it, ranging from easy (yellow) to medium (green) to challenging (blue) to difficult (purple). Of course, these group rankings are subject to interpretation, so you may solve a harder one before an easier one!
Who creates the puzzles for Connections: Soccer Edition?
I do! My name is Will Jeanes and I create Connections: Soccer Edition and work as a senior editor at The Athletic. I also do some writing, focusing mostly on soccer history and statistics.
The next puzzle will be available at midnight in your time zone. Thanks for playing — and share your scores in the comments!
