The Canadians are not participating in World Cup qualifiers, as the 2026 World Cup will be hosted by Canada, the USA, and Mexico. The Canadian team is preparing for the home tournament through friendly matches. On Saturday, September 7, the Canadians played against the USA. They scored early in the first half and again at the beginning of the second. These two goals were enough to secure a 2-1 victory, despite a single reply from the Americans.
Before that, Canada competed in the 2024 Copa America, where they performed well. The team earned four points in the group stage, advanced to the knockout stage, and finished in fourth place. The 2022 World Cup was less successful for Canada, with three losses in the group stage and a last-place finish in their group. Now, Canada is preparing for the home World Cup and aims to perform much better.
As one of the hosts of the upcoming World Cup, Mexico is also not participating in the qualifiers and is preparing through friendly matches. A few days ago, they played against New Zealand and won confidently 3-0, scoring one goal before halftime and two more after. During the summer, the Mexican team participated in the Copa America, where, like Canada, they earned four points in the group stage but failed to advance to the knockout stage, losing to Ecuador on tiebreakers.
It’s worth noting that at the 2022 World Cup, Mexico also exited the tournament due to worse tiebreaker statistics. They earned four points but finished in third place and were eliminated. These are two very painful exits from major tournaments.
