BLACKPINK star Lisa is no stranger to dominating social media conversations, but this time, the buzz goes beyond her fashion choices. The singer, who recently released "Goals" alongside Anitta and Rema for the FIFA World Cup 2026 soundtrack, found herself at the center of a heated fan debate just days after the track dropped. The discussion quickly spread across Instagram and other social media platforms.
While Lisa's promotional photos featuring a sporty jersey and striking blue latex microshorts certainly captured attention, most of the online discourse revolved around the song itself. Fans flooded comment sections with reactions ranging from enthusiastic praise to harsh criticism, sparking one of the most talked-about discussions surrounding a World Cup anthem in recent memory.
Lisa's "Goals" Becomes Hot Topic Among Football and K-Pop Fans
"Goals" was released amid immense expectations. FIFA World Cup songs often face a unique challenge: they must capture the energy of football while appealing to a global audience. Striking this balance can be difficult, and many listeners quickly began comparing Lisa's latest offering to past tournament anthems.
The backlash, however, has not stopped the track from accumulating streams online, demonstrating that the hype surrounding Lisa remains sky-high. Her fans applauded her for exploring different sounds and collaborating across genres. Others pointed out that the streaming numbers and social media engagement indicate the song has already achieved its purpose—sparking conversation, a key metric of impact in the modern music industry.
Meanwhile, football fans appeared divided on whether the track truly embodies the spirit typically associated with a World Cup anthem.
Lisa's "Goals" Floods Social Media with Fan Reactions
The most powerful responses came directly from listeners, many of whom expressed blunt opinions in the comments section. One fan wrote, "The song isn't that bad but it's not supposed to be FIFA related?" Another commented, "Ok let this be your last FIFA related song." Some were even harsher, with remarks like "Gotta be the worst World Cup song to this day :V," "Wtf? This is not a FIFA song," and "Worst WC song ever?"
Others questioned whether the song suited the tournament vibe, commenting, "World Cup song ❌ club song ✅," "Nahhh it can't be a Football World Cup song?" and "Worst song in the history of FIFA World Cup?" Disappointed listeners added, "So disappointing," "Please delete this song," "never make a football related song again," and "Lyrics should be better."
However, support for Lisa was evident throughout the discussion. Fans posted messages such as "We love you Lisa," "Goals?? dreamers❤️❤️," "Shakira & Jungkook best❤️," and "They don't like Lisa but keep tabs on everything she does?"
The mixed reaction exemplifies the difficulty of crafting a global football anthem. Love it or hate it, "Goals" has become one of the most talked-about FIFA World Cup songs of the year, keeping Lisa firmly in the spotlight.
