World Cup 2026: The official and complete group stage schedule

Still lacking confidence after their heavy opening day loss to Sweden (1-5), the Carthage Eagles failed to find the resources needed to get back into the qualification race.

Once again, the North African side lacked determination against a Japanese team that continues to impress, killing any suspense in the first half thanks to goals from Daichi Kamada and Ayase Ueda.

Rooted to the bottom of Group F, Tunisia will wrap up their 2026 World Cup campaign on Friday, June 26, with a final clash against the Netherlands.
