⚽ Wales’ World Cup Play-Off Challenge Awaits! ⚽
Hold your breath, football fans! Wales is inching closer to a spot in the 2026 World Cup, but there’s a catch. Having wrapped up Group J just behind Belgium, the Dragons are diving straight into the tense world of play-offs – and it’s not uncharted territory. Remember Qatar 2022? We got there through play-offs too!
Next up, Wales will compete against 15 other European nations in this final push. Two teams to steer clear of? Let’s just say Italy isn’t known as a four-time World Cup champ for nothing. And a face-off against the Republic of Ireland wouldn’t just be a match—it’d be a showdown, especially after their recent triumph against Hungary.
The draw is set for Thursday, 20 November at noon (UK time) in Switzerland. It’s all about who we get – fingers crossed for a favourable outcome! As a Pot 2 team, Wales will host one of the Pot 3 teams in Cardiff for the semi-final. A win there could set up a final clash against any of the heavyweights from the rest of Europe.
Much hangs in the balance. If we overcome the two match hurdle, start packing for the World Cup! But first, kick-off those semi-finals on 26 March 2026, with finals five days later. The journey to the World Cup continues! 🏆
