Czech Republic v South Africa LIVE: Group A sides for fight survival at World Cup 2026 | OneFootball

Czech Republic and South Africa face off in a vital clash in World Cup 2026 Group A this evening, with both sides desperate to register their first win of the tournament.

South Africa opened the tournament against Mexico last week in what was a disastrous performance, with Bafana Bafana falling to a 2-0 loss and losing both Yaya Sitole and Themba Zwane to red cards.

The Czech Republic fared better against South Korea, but still fell to a defeat after Oh Hyeon-gyu’s late goal.

And while neither side’s World Cup dream is over after just one game, a defeat this evening would put the losing team in a precarious position with just one match left, and a win could prove vital if either nation is to make the last 32.
