Tunisia, Haiti, Turkey Eliminated from 2026 World Cup After Japan Loss
Tunisia was knocked out of the 2026 FIFA World Cup after a 4‑0 defeat to Japan earlier today at Estadio Monterrey in Guadalupe, Monterrey. The loss followed a 5‑1 reverse against Sweden, leaving Tunisia with zero points after two Group F matches and mathematically eliminating them from reaching the Round of 32. Haiti and Turkey had already been eliminated earlier in the tournament. Tunisia’s final group match will be against the Netherlands in the coming days.
For Nigerian fans tracking the World Cup, Tunisia’s exit reduces the number of African sides still alive in the competition and highlights how quickly a campaign can collapse after back‑to‑back heavy defeats. It also underscores the competitiveness of Group F, where Japan and Sweden have secured advancement while Tunisia, Haiti and Turkey are out.
Keep an eye on Tunisia’s last group game against the Netherlands to see how they finish the campaign, and follow the progress of other African teams still in the tournament. If you’re supporting any side, note that Group F’s remaining matches could shape the knockout‑stage pairings.
