FIFA World Cup 2026 Match Results — Scores, Goals & Stats

This page is the complete results archive of the FIFA World Cup 2026: final scores, goalscorers and match statistics for every fixture, from the opening game at the Estadio Azteca on 11 June to the final at MetLife Stadium on 19 July. Results are added as matches finish, so nothing from the tournament’s 104 games ever slips past you.

Latest World Cup 2026 Results From All 16 Host Cities

With matches staged across the United States, Canada and Mexico — and up to six games on the busiest group-stage days — keeping track of results manually is a losing battle, and this feed exists to win it for you. Every completed fixture appears here with its final score, the group or knockout round it belongs to, the venue and the goalscorers with minute marks, presented in a single consistently formatted list. Coverage spans the entire tournament without exception: all 72 group-stage matches across Groups A to L, the sixteen ties of the new Round of 32, and every game from the Round of 16 through the quarter-finals, semi-finals, third-place match and the final itself. Each result links in two directions — back to our pre-match prediction, so you can compare forecast against reality, and forward to the live standings, where the score’s effect on the group table and the third-place ranking is already reflected. Results are filterable by date, group, team and host city, which turns a 104-match archive into an answer you can find in seconds.

How Quickly Results Are Updated

Speed is the whole point of a results page, and ours is built around the rhythm of the tournament. Final scores are published within minutes of the full-time whistle, with goalscorers and basic match data included from the first posting; fuller statistics — possession, shots, cards and the rest — follow shortly after, once official tournament data is confirmed. Knockout matches receive special handling: a tie level after ninety minutes is updated through extra time and, if needed, the penalty shoot-out, with both the official result and the shoot-out score recorded so there is never ambiguity about how a team advanced. During simultaneous group-stage kick-offs on the final matchdays, both parallel results update live side by side — exactly the moments when a single goal in one city reorders the qualification picture in another, and when this page earns its bookmark.

What Every Match Result Page Includes

A bare scoreline tells you who won; the surrounding detail tells you how, why and what it means for the rest of the tournament — and that fuller story is what each individual result page on QWC delivers. Open any completed fixture and you will find the match reconstructed through its essential data:

• Final score with half-time score, plus extra time and penalty shoot-out details where applicable;
• Goalscorers and assist providers with exact minutes, including own goals and penalties;
• Cards and dismissals — critical at a World Cup, where accumulated yellows trigger suspensions;
• Core team statistics: possession, total and on-target shots, corners and fouls;
• Line-ups, formations and substitutions for both sides;
• Tournament context: what the result changed in the group table or knockout bracket;
• A link to our original prediction for a direct forecast-versus-outcome comparison.

Together these elements let you reconstruct a match you never watched: a 1-0 built on 35% possession describes a defensive masterclass, while a 2-2 with forty shots between the sides tells of chaos that the scoreline alone would flatten into a routine draw.

Understanding Football Match Statistics

Match statistics reward readers who know what each number actually measures, and a handful of metrics carry most of the analytical weight. The table below summarises the figures you will meet on every QWC result page and the honest interpretation of each:

No single figure settles an argument on its own — a team can lose despite better numbers in every column — but read together, these statistics reveal whether a result was deserved, fortunate or an outright statistical heist, which matters enormously when you use past results to judge future matches.

Group Stage Results and Qualification Implications

From 11 to 27 June, every result on this page carries arithmetic beyond the three points it awards, and our group-stage coverage is built to surface those implications instantly. The 48-team format makes the connection between scores and qualification unusually intricate: twelve four-team groups feed the standings, but eight knockout places belong to the cross-group ranking of third-placed teams, where goal difference and goals scored are compared between sides that never meet. A 4-0 win in Group C can therefore eliminate a team in Group J without a ball being kicked between them. Each group-stage result we publish includes a short qualification note explaining exactly what changed: who is through, who is out, and what each remaining team now needs from its final fixture. On the decisive matchdays of 24–27 June, with simultaneous kick-offs and live permutations, this page works in tandem with our standings section — results land here, their consequences appear there, and the full picture of the Round of 32 assembles in real time.

Knockout Results: Extra Time, Penalties and the Road to the Final

From the Round of 32 on 28 June, results acquire a second dimension: not just the score, but the manner of progression. Knockout ties level after ninety minutes go to thirty minutes of extra time and then, if still deadlocked, to a penalty shoot-out — and our result pages record every layer distinctly, showing the ninety-minute score, the extra-time score and the shoot-out outcome separately. The distinction is far from pedantic. For bettors, most match-result markets settle on ninety minutes while “to qualify” markets include everything after, and a result page that blurs the two invites costly confusion. For analysis, the manner of victory is predictive: a team that has survived consecutive extra-time battles carries measurable fatigue into its next round, and penalty shoot-out records — which we track cumulatively across the tournament — are among the most persistent team traits in knockout football. As the bracket narrows through the quarter-finals, the semi-finals in Dallas and Atlanta and the final on 19 July, each result page also shows the path it opens: who awaits the winner, where, and on how many days’ rest.

Using Results to Sharpen Your Betting

A results archive is the raw material of every good prediction, and the most profitable habit a World Cup bettor can build is reading yesterday’s results more carefully than tomorrow’s odds. Scorelines alone mislead — a 3-0 win built on two deflections and a soft penalty is weaker evidence than a 1-1 draw dominated from the first minute — which is why our result pages pair every score with the underlying statistics needed to separate performance from outcome. Used systematically, the archive answers the questions that decide bets: which favourites are winning while playing poorly and are due a correction; which outsiders keep posting strong xG numbers without reward; which teams fade physically after the hour mark in the southern heat; which defences concede from set pieces repeatedly. Because every result links back to our original prediction, you can also audit our reasoning match by match and calibrate how much weight to give our tips. Check the results here, trace their implications in the standings, and arrive at the next matchday’s predictions already knowing what the scorelines concealed — that loop, repeated daily, is what turns a casual World Cup punter into an informed one.
