Haiti became the first team officially eliminated from the 2026 World Cup with its loss to Brazil on Friday and is mathematically unable to get past the group stage. In the new World Cup format, the top two teams from each group – and the eight best third-place finishers – move on to the Round of 32, which begins on June 28.
