The Group L World Cup schedule has moved from group results to Round of 32 dates, with knockout games now lined up across 29 June to 3 July 2026. Several teams have already finished their group-stage work, while others still face TBC opponents in the bracket.
Group L World Cup schedule
The list runs through the final days of June and into early July, with Round of 32 fixtures set for 29 June, 30 June, 1 July, 2 July and 3 July. One team is scheduled to play TBC in Boston on 29 June at 22:30 CEST. Another is due against Sweden in New York on 30 June at 23:00 CEST, while separate fixtures on that same day send teams to Monaco? No, the source only gives Morocco in Monterrey at 03:00 CEST, Côte d'Ivoire in Dallas at 19:00 CEST, and France in New York at 23:00 CEST.
Other listed Round of 32 games include Algeria in Kansas City on 28 June at 04:00, Colombia in Miami on 28 June at 01:30, TBC in Seattle on 1 July at 22:00 CEST, the USA in San Francisco on 2 July at 02:00 CEST, TBC in Los Angeles on 2 July at 21:00 CEST, and TBC in Vancouver on 3 July at 05:00 CEST. Panama and Croatia Meet in Toronto for Group L World Cup 2026 sits in the same sequence of fixtures that now bridges the group stage and the knockout round.
June results set the bracket
The group results behind those fixtures are already decisive. One team drew 1-1 with Egypt in Seattle on 15 June, drew 0-0 with IR Iran in Los Angeles on 21 June, then beat New Zealand 5-1 in Vancouver on 27 June. Another drew 1-1 with Canada in Toronto on 12 June, lost 1-4 to Switzerland in Los Angeles on 18 June, and beat Qatar 3-1 in Seattle on 24 June.
Elsewhere, one side beat Croatia 4-2 in Dallas on 17 June, drew 0-0 with Ghana in Boston on 23 June, and was scheduled to play Panama in New York on 27 June. Another beat Senegal 3-1 in New York on 16 June, beat Iraq 3-0 in Philadelphia on 22 June, and beat Norway 4-1 in Boston on 26 June. A different team beat Curaçao 7-1 in Houston on 14 June, beat Côte d'Ivoire 2-1 in Toronto on 20 June, and lost 1-2 to Ecuador in New York on 25 June.
Russia? No, Group L
The standings flow from those results, not from reputation. A win, draw or loss changes the path into the Round of 32, which is why the fixture list now matters as much as the scorelines that produced it. The group also shows a complication: several opponents are still listed as TBC, so the knockout bracket is not fully final in the source.
That leaves a clear read for readers tracking Group L World Cup scheduling. Some teams have finished the group stage and moved into set knockout slots, others still wait for the missing opponent names, and the bracket will keep tightening through 3 July as those TBC places are filled.
