World Cup qualifiers are regional tournaments where national teams compete to earn a spot in the FIFA World Cup based on their performance in group and knockout matches. There are six regions that each have a certain number of qualification slots. A select number of playoff spots are also available. At the end of the process, there will be 48 total teams in the World Cup.

As a co-host, the United States Men's National Team automatically qualified for the 2026 World Cup. In the 2022 World Cup, they lost to the Netherlands in the Round of 16.

The draw will take place in December 5, 2025 at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C.

The 2022 World Cup Final was an incredible match with Lionel Messi and Argentina prevailing over Kylian Mbappe’s French squad in penalties, 3-3 (4-2).
