The Haiti national team has officially said goodbye to the 2026 World Cup, becoming the first team eliminated from the competition after their heavy 0-3 defeat to Brazil in Group 3.
What happened?
The fate of the Haitians was sealed well before the last day. According to the FIFA regulations, direct confrontations serve as the first criterion for separating teams with equal points.
Beaten 0-1 by Scotland in their opening match, the Haitian team remains stuck at zero points and is already excluded from the race for the eighth finals.
Why is this important for Haiti?
Thanks to this success, Brazil takes the lead in Group C with 4 points, just ahead of Morocco, also with 4 units, while Scotland is in third place with 3 points and Haiti is last, still at zero.

What comes next?
The two goals from Matheus Cunha and the realization of Vinícius Júnior sanctioned a first period of clear dominance of the « Seleção », before they relaxed their effort in the second half, offering Haiti some unconverted opportunities to get back into the game.
Thus, the Caribbean team, led by coach Sébastien Migné, is the first victim of the group stage, with two consecutive defeats against Scotland and Brazil, and a participation that ends without a single point or goal.
