Group C Knockout Stage Path
Group C winners proceed to the Round of 32 on June 28-July 3. The exact Round of 32 opponent depends on the bracket structure published by FIFA, which keeps top-seeded groups apart until the later rounds.

Group C Third-Place Qualification
One critical change in the 2026 format: eight of the twelve third-placed teams advance to the Round of 32. This means a 3-point return in Group C could be enough to advance — or it could mean elimination, depending on how the other 11 third-placed teams perform. Our Best Third Place Calculator shows the live cutline.
