Lisa has officially entered the FIFA World Cup stage for the very first time and fans are already calling it one of the biggest global moments of her solo career.

After days of sending social media into meltdown with short teaser clips, the full version of Goals was finally released at 10 PM KST on May 21 as an official promotional single for the FIFA World Cup 2026.

The track marks Lisa’s first-ever participation in a World Cup music project and further solidifies her growing status as a global pop icon beyond K-pop.

Even before release, Goals was already predicted to become one of the biggest songs of the summer thanks to its star-studded lineup.

The song features a multinational collaboration between Lisa, Brazilian pop superstar Anitta, and Afrobeats sensation Rema. While Lisa represents the global K-pop wave and Asian music market, Anitta delivers fiery Latin pop energy, and Rema brings the signature Afrobeats sound that helped make Calm Down a worldwide phenomenon.

Behind the production are Brazilian hitmakers Tropkillaz alongside renowned producer Cirkut, known for working with artists such as The Weeknd and Miley Cyrus.

Musically, Goals blends modern pop, Brazilian funk, Afrobeats, and EDM into a high-energy anthem perfectly tailored for the World Cup atmosphere.

Shortly after the MV dropped, Lisa instantly became one of the biggest trending topics across social media platforms worldwide.

The BLACKPINK member appeared in sporty yet ultra-glamorous styling, wearing a yellow-and-green athletic-inspired outfit reminiscent of football field colors and the World Cup spirit itself.

Fans especially praised Lisa’s commanding stage presence, sharp rap delivery, and explosive choreography throughout the music video. Her performance balanced the signature charisma K-pop fans know her for while fully embracing the grand, festival-like energy associated with the World Cup.

Many viewers described Lisa’s appearance as giving “true global pop star energy.”

Another detail that immediately caught fans’ attention was Lisa’s subtle inclusion of Labubu — the collectible character she has famously promoted and shown love for over the past year.

The unexpected cameo delighted fans, with many joking that Labubu has now officially become part of Lisa’s personal brand.

The excitement surrounding Goals doesn’t end with the MV release.

FIFA has officially confirmed that Lisa, Anitta, and Rema will perform the song live during the opening ceremony of the FIFA World Cup 2026 on June 12, 2026, at SoFi Stadium before the opening match between the United States and Paraguay.

The event is expected to attract hundreds of millions of viewers globally. Other major stars reportedly joining the opening ceremony lineup include Katy Perry, Future, and Tyla.

With this achievement, Lisa officially becomes the first female K-pop artist to perform at a FIFA World Cup opening ceremony and the second K-pop act overall following Jung Kook’s appearance at the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022.

As Lisa continues expanding her solo career on the global stage, Goals marks yet another milestone proving her growing international influence far beyond the traditional boundaries of K-pop.
