About This Match
Belgium face Iran in the Group Stage of Group G on Sunday, June 21, 2026. Belgium are ranked #7 in the world and managed by Domenico Tedesco; Iran sit at #24 under Afshin Ghotbi. The match kicks off at 15:00 local time at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.
Belgium
Belgium's golden generation has had a complicated relationship with major tournaments - ranked among the world's best for a decade yet failing to win a major title. At World Cup 2026, an aging but still talented squad around Kevin De Bruyne - widely considered one of the greatest midfielders of his generation - makes one final tilt at glory. Coach Domenico Tedesco must manage minutes for veterans while integrating younger talents alongside proven players like Romelu Lukaku. Group G against Iran, Egypt, and New Zealand looks very favourable, and Belgium will be expected to top the group comfortably. Anything less than a semi-final would likely end the golden generation era.
Read Belgium preview →Iran
Iran, the most successful Asian nation at World Cup qualifying, make their seventh tournament appearance at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Team Melli boast a prolific striker in Inter Milan's Mehdi Taremi and experienced wide men including Feyenoord's Alireza Jahanbakhsh and the combative Sardar Azmoun. Coach Afshin Ghotbi has returned to lead a team that is consistently competitive in Asian football. Group G alongside Belgium, Egypt, and New Zealand offers Iran a genuine path to the round of 16 for the first time since 2006. Breaking through from the group would be a landmark result for Iranian football.
