Nine games will be played across seven countries – Australia, Brazil, England, France, Germany, Mexico, and Spain – bringing fans closer to the action than ever before.
The logistics of these games can be a nightmare, especially for teams like the San Francisco 49ers, who'll play their first game in Melbourne against the Los Angeles Rams.
