Full 2026 World Cup draw: Spain find out opponents in Group H | OneFootball

The 2026 World Cup draw has taken place in Washington D.C in the United States, with Spain finding out their opponents for the group stages. The event featured lengthy interventions from FIFA President Gianni Infantino and US President Donald Trump, with the latter being awarded ‘the FIFA Peace Prize’, for first and perhaps final time.

Spain qualified top of their group with Turkiye, Bulgaria and Georgia, winning five of their six games, drawing 2-2 with Turkiye in their final match. La Roja head into the tournament as one of the favourites, having reached the final of the Nations League and won Euro 2024 in their last two tournament outings.
