About This Match

Germany face Ivory Coast in the Group Stage of Group E on Saturday, June 20, 2026. Germany are ranked #10 in the world and managed by Julian Nagelsmann; Ivory Coast sit at #33 under Emerse Faé. The match kicks off at 16:00 local time at BMO Field in Toronto.

Germany

Germany enter the 2026 FIFA World Cup with renewed optimism after the disappointment of early exits in 2018 and 2022. Coach Julian Nagelsmann has overseen a regeneration built around two extraordinary young talents - Bayer Leverkusen's Florian Wirtz and Bayern Munich's Jamal Musiala - who are already among the best players in the world at their age. Die Mannschaft, four-time World Cup champions, are placed in Group E alongside Ecuador, Ivory Coast, and debutants Curaçao, a draw that should allow them to qualify comfortably and build momentum. The German public demands nothing less than a deep run, and the talent is finally there to deliver.

Ivory Coast

Ivory Coast, the reigning 2024 AFCON champions on home soil, arrive at World Cup 2026 under coach Emerse Faé with a wave of confidence and momentum. Les Éléphants have a proud but frustrating World Cup history - qualified four times but never advanced beyond the group stage, despite the quality of their players in the Didier Drogba era. This squad, led by Borussia Dortmund striker Sébastien Haller and supported by former Arsenal winger Nicolas Pépé and Barcelona's Franck Kessié, looks capable of finally breaking that group-stage glass ceiling. Group E opponents Germany, Ecuador, and Curaçao make this the most competitive group of Ivory Coast's World Cup history.
