The final spots for the 2026 FIFA World Cup will be decided Tuesday. In Europe, four matches determined which teams will be coming to this summer’s tournament in North America.

Sweden defeated Poland and Türkiye defeated Kosovo to book their spots in the 90 minutes as the two winning teams returned to the World Cup for the first time since 2018 and 2002, respectively.

However, two games went to penalties, and in the end, it was Czechia that eliminated Denmark to return to the World Cup for the first time since 2006, and finally we had Bosnia and Herzegovina defeat Italy as the Azzurri failed to qualify for the World Cup a third straight time.
