World Cup 2026 Group Tiebreakers

In the 2026 World Cup, if two or more teams are tied on points within a group, the first tie-breaker will be the head-to-head record, a change from previous tournaments where goal difference was first used. This rule, now in place, will determine rankings based on matches played among the tied teams, proceeding through various criteria if needed, including goals scored and disciplinary records. Drawing of lots, used as a final tie-breaker in past tournaments, will no longer be employed, marking a significant change after being last used in 2022.
