6️⃣ tickets punched: Today's World Cup 2026 qualifiers

Without a doubt, there are a handful of matches left to finish the Qualifiers across all continents, and today we had four teams secure their ticket.

Kane leads England

The Bayern striker scored a brace against Latvia for the Three Lions to win 0–5 and seal their qualification for the next World Cup.

With Thomas Tuchel arriving as coach and an incredible crop of players, they’ll come in as contenders.

South Africa return

After 16 years, Bafana Bafana secured their ticket in the first window of the South African Qualifiers.

They thrashed Rwanda and Nigeria gave them a big hand by beating Benin. Without a doubt, one of the most nerve-wracking finishes.

Qatar return to the World Cup

In 2022 they were the main hosts and skipped the Qualifiers.

While their World Cup results weren’t the best, they now arrive with a morale boost to try to advance past the group stage for the first time in their history.

Saudi Arabia, a regular

Undoubtedly, it’s already customary to talk about the Arabs qualifying for World Cups.

In the last World Cup they were in the spotlight because they were the only team to beat the world champions. We’ll see if they can reach the knockout stage now.

Senegal spoil DR Congo’s hopes

The Teranga Lions reached their fourth World Cup after beating Mauritania 4–0.

The big decider was against Congo. The latter needed a loss by Mané’s team, despite having won. Another thrilling finish in Africa.

Ivory Coast return to the World Cup

The Elephants beat Kenya and will play a World Cup after 12 years away.

Their last appearance at the top event was Brazil 2014. This will be their fourth participation in history.
