Two more teams have been confirmed for the 2026 World Cup finals.

The reigning world champions secured an early ticket to the next round right before the "big battle" with Brazil in the 14th round of the South American qualifying round.

Specifically, in the earliest match of round 14, Bolivia failed to cause any surprises and only managed a 0-0 draw when hosting Uruguay at home.

With this result, Bolivia continues to stand in 7th place with 14 points, 14 points behind Argentina in the context that the CONMEBOL regional qualifying round has only 4 more matches to end.

Argentina has secured an early ticket, the South American region will compete for 5 direct tickets and a place in the play-off round to compete for a place in the 2026 World Cup finals.

Of course, Argentina's early qualification will certainly not make the "South American Super Classic" between them and Brazil any less exciting.

A few hours before Argentina, the Iranian team also officially became the next representative of Asia to win a ticket to the 2026 World Cup finals.

Iran and Uzbekistan drew 2-2 in a dramatic match after an exciting score chase in the highlight match of Group A of the third qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup.

This result, along with Qatar's shocking loss to Kyrgyzstan, helped Iran become the next name to participate in the biggest football festival on the planet next year.

After 8 matches, Iran is holding 20 points, 7 points ahead of the third-placed team in Group A, UAE, with only two matches left.

Also in this series, the Korean team also had the advantage to soon participate in the football festival taking place next year, but continued to disappoint.

The Korean stars could only manage a 1-1 draw in their head-to-head match against Jordan, extending their draw streak to three.

This result was not enough to help South Korea secure an early ticket even though in the match that took place later, Iraq unexpectedly lost to Palestine.

After 8 matches, South Korea has 16 points, 3 points more than Jordan and 4 points more than Iraq with only 2 matches left.

The current situation will certainly make the last two rounds very tense when Iraq will have to face Korea (round 9) and Jordan (last round). Of course, Korea is the team with the advantage in this competition.

Up to now, 4 teams have qualified for the 2026 World Cup including Japan, Iran (Asia), New Zealand (Oceania) and Argentina (South America).

Thus, along with the 4 teams above, the final round has determined 7 teams, including three hosts: the US, Mexico and Canada./.
