Identifying the 7 teams that qualified for the 2026 World Cup finals.

VOV.VN - As of March 26th, the organizing committee has identified 7 teams that have qualified for the 2026 World Cup finals.

This morning (March 26th), the 2026 World Cup qualifiers continued with exciting and dramatic matches. In the Asian region, the eighth round of the third qualifying stage took place, with the match between Iran and Uzbekistan, the two teams currently sharing the top two positions in Group A, attracting significant attention from fans.

In this match, Iran faced considerable difficulties against Uzbekistan's disruptive playing style. The West Asian representatives were twice trailing their opponents in the 16th and 53rd minutes, but thanks to Taremi's brilliance (52nd and 83rd minutes), they managed to secure a 2-2 draw.

With this result, Iran has 20 points after 8 matches, 3 points more than Uzbekistan and 7 points more than the third-placed team, UAE. Therefore, Iran has officially secured a ticket to the 2026 World Cup finals with two matches to spare. Previously, in the Asian region, Japan was the first team to qualify for the finals.
