At 4:45 p.m., five more games to end the day. Croatia will play against the Faroe Islands at the HNK Rijeka Stadium. If the home team draws or wins against their opponents, they will be guaranteed a spot in the 2026 World Cup. This could happen as the team already has three points and has one game less than the second place team with one round left.
The Netherlands could also qualify for the World Cup. To do that, they must either beat or draw with Poland, which is in second place in Group G with a three-point lead over the Netherlands. The match will be held at Warsaw’s National Stadium from 4:45 p.m.
