Curacao has been eliminated from the 2026 FIFA World Cup following the conclusion of the group stage. The Caribbean island nation failed to secure sufficient points to advance, while Côte d’Ivoire and Ecuador both qualified for the last 32 of the tournament.

According to France 24, Côte d’Ivoire and Ecuador secured their places in the knockout rounds after completing their respective group stage fixtures. Both nations accumulated the results necessary to progress to the next phase of the competition.

Curacao, representing the Caribbean constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, was unable to advance beyond the group stage. Specific match results and final group standings that determined Curacao’s elimination were not further detailed in the available source material at the time of publication.

Also notable, according to France 24, is the early exit of Germany, a nation that has won the FIFA World Cup on four occasions and was widely regarded as a contender for the title. The German national team departed the tournament at the group stage, a result considered unexpected given the country’s historical record in international football competitions.
