Which African nations have the best chances?
After the sensational semi-final at the World Cup 2022, as the first African and Arab nation ever, Morocco are the clear frontrunners of the continent. Reigning African champions Senegal and a dangerous Egypt with Mohamed Salah are also among the outsiders. Read more about the surprises in our guide to the outsiders of the 2026 World Cup.
What do the African shirts look like?
The African kits are among the most beautiful of the tournament. Think of the red with the green star of Morocco, the white with the black star of Ghana, and the green, yellow and red of Senegal with a design inspired by the colourful Car Rapide buses of Dakar. Each one a shirt with a story.

Why are African shirts so popular in the Netherlands and Belgium?
