World Cup Qualifiers Ramp Up The Action

The action will ramp up in Africas 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifying tournament, as Matchday 6 is played out across Sunday 23, Monday 24 and Tuesday 25 March.

One of the most-eagerly anticipated ties comes from Group G, as co-leaders Algeria and Mozambique meet in Tizi Ouzou late on Tuesday evening. Both the Mambas and the Fennec Foxes claimed 3-1 wins late last week over Uganda home and Botswana away respectively to put themselves clear of the chasing pack and in a two-horse race for the one guaranteed qualifying spot from the group.

Playing in the World Cup is a dream for the players, and as a coach, I would love to be there, said Mozambique coach Chiquinho Conde.

Today, the number of teams qualifying for the World Cup has increased, and we have a dream. We will fight to achieve our goals with humility and respect for our opponents, regardless of their calibre.

The other games in Group G on Tuesday see Botswana host Somalia in Francistown, and Guinea head to Kampala for a clash with hosts Uganda.
