Scotland in October was at the turn of the 2nd and 3rd pot. In November they won 2 matches against 2 higher ranked rivals: Croatia and Poland. In my opinion they must to advance a few places higher. Maybe this portal is based on the ranking from October?

It’s going to be fun when FIFA find out Trump won’t budge and let some players in just weeks before.

Yet antother piece of useless data:

 

If 2026 World Cup was 32 teams - as it shoould be imo

and have one host USA - as it should be imo

and we would have qualified teams according to last Euro/Copa America/Africa Cup of Nations... no world cup qualifying but continental champs as qualifying for world cup - AS IT SHOULD BE imo, then we could have continental champs every 2 years

 

the 2026 tournament could look sth like that:

No chance for Poland vs Spain or Pays Bas but Finland and Lithuania have had a terrible 2024 so maybe we can reach the playoffs again.

 

It's been forever since we played Malta, probably the most elusive team usually drawn from the last pot. We only played them 4 times in history (WC 1982 qualifying + two friendlies in 1999 and 2003).
