Brazil meet Morocco in a 2022 rematch
Five-time champions Brazil
Group C is anchored by Brazil, the five-time World Cup winners. The Seleção open against Morocco on June 13 at New York New Jersey Stadium — a heavyweight first-day fixture and a rematch of the team that shocked the world by reaching the semi-finals in 2022. Vinícius Júnior, Rodrygo and Endrick lead Brazil's new attacking generation.
Morocco's history-makers, plus Haiti and Scotland
Morocco arrive as the first African nation to reach a World Cup semi-final, with much of the 2022 core still in the squad. Scotland return to the World Cup for the first time since 1998 and will rely on a disciplined press and set-piece efficiency. Haiti make their second ever World Cup appearance (first since 1974) — bringing pace on the counter and a small but passionate following.

Tie-breakers — what to watch for
Goal difference is the first tie-breaker, so the margin of victory matters from matchday 1. If teams remain level, then goals scored, then head-to-head, then disciplinary points, and finally a FIFA-ranking draw. Don't be surprised if a goal in the dying minutes decides who advances.
