CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — Next year's World Cup will have three mascots, a bald eagle Clutch in the U.S., a jaguar Zayu in Mexico and a moose Maple in Canada. FIFA made its announcement Thursday in a news release, less than nine months before the June 11 opener of the tournament, the first World Cup to be played in three nations. For the 1994 World Cup in the U.S., organizers revealed a dog named Striker as the mascot during a news conference in October 1992 at Hollywood’s Mann Chinese Theater.
