2026 World Cup and Qualifiers

Jamaica failed to beat Curaçao 0-0.
And they didn't automatically qualify for the World Cup.

So Steve McClaren's resigned before he was sacked. But this is sad as I couldn't wait to hear his Jamaican accent.

But the main thing is, Where the heck is Curaçao?
(yes I know that it's a small island just off the coast of Venezuela and has a population about the same as Blackburn. Although their football team is better)

It's the small country to qualify for the World Cup.

Don't think you could get any country smaller than them qualifying unless you include American Samoa or the Cook Islands.

Don't forget UEFA playoff draw takes places today (forgot what time) & Hoping both Wales & N. Ireland avoid each other, but also get decent draws.

The draws have been made to the pathways to get to the World Cup.

If Northern Ireland beat Italy then they would face the winners of Wales against Bosnia and Herzegovnia. So it's not going to be possible for all 4 home nations to qualify.

Cristiano Ronaldo has received a three-match ban with two games suspended meaning he will be available for the start of the 2026 World Cup . I smell a rat.
