⚽ World Cup 2026

Group G — FIFA World Cup 2026

Belgium are the standout side and arrive with one of their most technically capable squads in recent years. Iran, ranked 21st by FIFA, and Egypt — Africa Cup of Nations regulars — make this a competitive group with three realistic contenders for the two spots. New Zealand are the underdogs but will be well-organised.
