Germany and Curacao will meet in the first match of Group E of the 2026 FIFA World Cup on June 14, 2026 at Houston Stadium on FOX.
This Group E matchup marks a historic milestone as Curacao makes its first World Cup appearance. In doing so, it becomes the smallest nation by population to qualify.
Curacao qualified for the 2026 World Cup by topping Group C in the second round of CONCACAF qualifying and then finishing first again in Group B in the third round. In both stages, they remained undefeated in 10 matches, recording seven wins and three draws.
After losing 4-1 to Scotland in a friendly on May 30, Curacao responded in a big way and will enter the tournament with a 4-0 victory against Aruba.
Meanwhile, Germany enters the tournament as a traditional power, playing in its 19th consecutive World Cup appearance.
After group stage eliminations in 2018 and 2022, the team is aiming for a deeper run with a revamped squad that surpassed UEFA qualification. Germany secured their place by winning Group A, securing first place with a dominant 6-0 victory over Slovakia to avoid the playoffs.
Germany comes into the World Cup on a nine-game winning streak in international matches, including its 2-1 victory over the United States last week.
This is the first meeting between these two national teams in any competition.
