Haïti
In Haiti, qualification for the 2026 World Cup is being celebrated as a moment of national pride and collective relief.
In the past few hours, the Haitian Football Federation has responded with emotion following the Grenadiers' historic qualification for the 2026 World Cup. This is only the second time in the country’s history. In a nation gripped by a deep crisis, this achievement has been welcomed as a source of national pride and a collective sigh of relief.
"On November 18, 1803, our ancestors fought with rifles and machetes to write Haiti’s name in capital letters. On November 18, 2025, our players are fighting with football boots to bring a smile back to a people who have suffered for far too long," the FHF wrote in an official statement.
