World Cup 2026 — Group C

World Cup 2026 Group C might be the most talent-stacked group of the tournament. Brazil arrive as one of the title favorites, with Vinícius Júnior and Raphinha combining on the flanks and Bruno Guimarães controlling midfield — a side built to win it all. Morocco return as the first African team to reach a World Cup semi-final, with Achraf Hakimi and Brahim Díaz providing world-class quality throughout. Scotland, led by Scott McTominay and Andy Robertson, punch above their weight and will make life difficult for both favorites. Haiti are the tournament debutants here — passionate and organized, but facing an enormous step up in quality. Brazil top this group without drama. The real battle is Morocco vs Scotland for second, a match that could define both nations' tournaments.
