The group stage draws for the 2026 FIFA World Cup European Qualifiers, which will be jointly hosted by the United States, Mexico and Canada, were held in Zürich, Switzerland. Our National Team was paired with the winner of the Spain-Netherlands match, Georgia and Bulgaria, who will meet in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Nations League in Group E.
After the draw, TFF President Ceyhun Kazancı made a statement. Here are those expressions…
“IT WAS A VERY BALANCED GROUP”
The competitions will start in September anyway. It will end quickly, September, October, November. It will end in 6 matches. If there is no playoffs, hopefully we will go directly. It was a very balanced group. It came from Georgia in the 3rd bag. Spain or the Netherlands could also lose points. We need to get 3 wins, especially in the home field. There are 9 more months until the first match. By then, our experience will increase even more.
