Earthquake at the 2026 World Cup

On the night of June 15th, Spain drew 0-0 with Cape Verde, ranked 64th in FIFA, in Group H at the Mercedes-Benz Arena.

As the reigning European champions, Spain is considered one of the top contenders for the title. According to the supercomputer Opta, "La Roja" has the highest probability of winning the tournament at 16%. However, Luis de la Fuente's team still faces doubts when looking at their recent World Cup performance.

Since their 2010 World Cup victory, Spain have failed to replicate that success on the world stage. In their last three World Cups, they have all been eliminated before the quarter-finals, and have only won one of their last six World Cup finals matches. Therefore, their opening match against Cape Verde will be an opportunity for the Iberian Peninsula representatives to prove they are ready to return to their status as a title contender.
