FIFA World Cup 2026, Day 4 Schedule: The excitement of FIFA World Cup 2026 is increasing every day. On the fourth day of the tournament, football fans will get to see many big matches, where on one hand four-time champion Germany will enter the field, while on the other hand there will be a high-voltage clash between Netherlands and Japan. Apart from this, Ivory Coast vs Ecuador and Sweden vs Tunisia matches are also going to increase the heartbeats of the fans.
Germany will start the campaign
The first big match of the day will be played between Germany and Curaçao. Germany is eager to forget the disappointment in the last two World Cups and make a strong comeback in this tournament. After becoming champion in 2014, the team was out of the group stage in two consecutive World Cups. In such a situation, this time there will be pressure on the German team to make a great start. At the same time, Curaçao is playing in the FIFA World Cup for the first time. This small country with a population of about 1.56 lakh is playing the Football World Cup for the first time.
Japan competes with Netherlands
After this, the most exciting match of the day will be between Netherlands and Japan. The Dutch team, which has played the World Cup finals thrice, will once again be in search of the title. The Netherlands team has reached the knockout stage in almost every World Cup played since 1974. On the other hand, Japan is among the strongest teams in Asia. The Japanese team is participating in the eighth consecutive World Cup. Since playing the World Cup for the first time in 1998, Japan has never looked back. In such a situation, this contest is expected to be very tough.
Ivory Coast and Ecuador will face each other
In another match of Group E, Ivory Coast will face Ecuador. Ecuador is playing in its second consecutive and fifth World Cup. The team performed brilliantly in the South American qualifiers and secured second place after Argentina. At the same time, Ivory Coast is returning to the World Cup after 12 years. The African team performed brilliantly in the qualification and got the direct ticket. The Ivory Coast team, which is playing the World Cup for the first time since 2014, would like to perform better this time.
In the last match of the day, the teams of Sweden and Tunisia will face each other. Tunisia is playing in the World Cup for the seventh time and has become a part of the tournament for the third consecutive time. However, the team has not been able to progress beyond the group stage till date. On the other hand, Sweden is playing its 13th FIFA World Cup. The team had finished third in the 1994 World Cup held in America and would hope to repeat the same performance this time too.
