When you head on over to the Google Search on Thursday, you’ll find a variety of artist representations celebrating the 2018 World Cup and the 32 participating countries, including the U.S., Brazil, Spain, and others.

According to Google, it found guest artists from all 32 countries and asked them to create a Google Doodle that centers on “What soccer looks like in my country.” The illustrations were then submitted to Google and will rotate through the company’s search page. Today’s Google Doodle artists come from Egypt, Iran, Morocco, Portugal, Spain, and Uruguay.

Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Colombia, and Peru are considered the favorites in the 2018 World Cup, but defending champion Germany could factor in the finals picture, as well. A total of 64 matches will be played. The final World Cup match will be held at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow on July 15.
