Tunisia is clear for the World Championship. The African nation is the 18th to secure a place in the championship in Canada, Mexico and USA.

Sweden meets Kosovo tonight in the hunt to qualify for the World Championship. At the same time, several nations are already clear for the championship.

On Monday, Tunisia secured a spot, after a 1–0 win away against Equatorial Guinea.

IFK Norrköping defender Moutaz Neffati – who has youth national team merits with Sweden – sat on the bench throughout the match. The 21-year-old chose just under a month ago to start representing Tunisia.

Tunisia will play its seventh World Championship and will keep Morocco company as the two nations that have so far qualified from Africa.

The championship will be played between June 11 and July 19, 2026.
