The draw for the 2026 FIFA World Cup has been completed in Washington, DC, setting the stage for the biggest tournament in history, co-hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Forty-eight teams have been placed into groups, with six more to be confirmed through playoffs in March. The co-hosts received favorable draws, while analysts highlighted strong prospects for teams like Brazil, Colombia, Morocco, and defending champions Argentina. With expanded formats, global fan support, and major stars—including Lionel Messi—expected to feature, anticipation is building for a record-breaking World Cup across North America.
