The World Cup usually has several songs associated with it but the official anthem is usually the most high-profile and is performed at the finale.

Past anthems include Shakira’s ‘Waka Waka’ and Ricky Martin’s ‘The Cup of Life’.

In 2014, Pitbull and Jennifer Lopez teamed up to headline the official song for the World Cup in Brazil.

Jason Derulo’s ‘Colors’ is the official Coca-Cola anthem for the 2018 World Cup.
