2026 World Cup Group C: updated standings after Brazil 3-0 Haiti | OneFootball

Friday night’s 3-0 win over Haiti (19) put Brazil at the top of Group C at the 2026 World Cup. With the result, the Seleção now has 4 points and is in a much more comfortable position heading into the final round of the group stage, although qualification is still not mathematically guaranteed.

What the Group C standings look like

Brazil and Morocco are tied on 4 points, but the Seleção sits in first place on tiebreakers thanks to the goal difference built in the rout over Haiti.

How each team got here

Brazil opened with a frustrating 1-1 draw against Morocco and responded with a more solid performance against Haiti, scoring the goals that secured its first three points of the tournament.

Morocco, meanwhile, also remains unbeaten: it drew with Brazil in the opener and beat Scotland 1-0 in the second round, staying right on the group leader’s heels.

Scotland, meanwhile, beat Haiti 1-0 in the opening round but then lost to Morocco, leaving it with 3 points — still alive in the race, but dependent on other results.

Haiti, in its historic World Cup appearance, lost its first two matches and has already been mathematically eliminated from the race for the group’s top two spots, although it still has one final game to play.

What Brazil still needs to do to confirm qualification

In the final round of the group stage, scheduled for June 24, Brazil will face Scotland, while Morocco takes on Haiti. The results of that round will decide the group’s top two teams, who advance directly to the round of 16.

In practice, Brazil goes in as the favorite to secure its place: a win — or even a draw — against Scotland would leave the Seleção in a comfortable position, since the team holds a goal-difference advantage over the Scots. A loss, however, could still complicate matters, depending on the result of Morocco vs. Haiti at the same time.

Why it is still worth keeping an eye on the table

Even at the top, Brazil has not yet officially sealed a place in the round of 16 — which leaves the final round tense, especially with Morocco level on points. The expectation is that the picture will only become clearer after the matches on the 24th, when all the groups in the opening phase decide their qualifiers.
