How does the 48-team World Cup 2026 format work?

48 teams are split into 12 groups of 4. Each team plays 3 group matches. The top two teams in every group advance, and the 8 best third-placed teams across all groups join them — 32 teams total move to the knockout rounds.

How do teams qualify from the group stage?

Finish 1st or 2nd in your group and you are through automatically. Finish 3rd and you enter the best-third-place race: all 12 third-placed teams are ranked together, and the top 8 qualify.

How are the best third-placed teams ranked?

By points first, then goal difference, then goals scored. If teams are still level, fair-play record and official ranking criteria apply.

What happens in the Round of 32?

It is the first knockout round — 32 teams, 16 matches, win or go home. From here every match must produce a winner: extra time, then penalties if needed.
