The 2026 FIFA World Cup has already produced 12 matches and an impressive 38 goals, showcasing early signs of a thrilling tournament.
The competition kicked off last Thursday with co-hosts Mexico taking on South Africa in the opening encounter.
That same evening, British audiences may have missed South Korea’s clash with Czechia, but for those who tuned in, it became evident that this expanded 48-team World Cup could turn into one of the most memorable editions yet.
With goals in every match so far—seven of which saw both sides scoring—here’s a complete look at all the scorelines from the World Cup 2026 up to this point.
The opening match proved lively, as Mexico secured a 2-0 victory over South Africa, thanks to goals from Raul Jiminez and Julian Quinones. The contest also featured two red cards for South Africa and one sending off for the Mexicans.
South Korea versus Czechia followed, with the European side taking a 1-0 lead at the hour mark before South Korea turned things around to claim a 2-1 win through goals in the 67th and 80th minutes.
Next up was co-host Canada’s meeting with Bosnia and Herzegovina. An early strike from Jovo Lukic and a stunning goal-line clearance by Sead Kolasinac set the tone, before substitute Cyle Larin equalised to earn a 1-1 draw in Group B’s opening fixture.
After a heated exchange between former USMNT forward Clint Dempsey and Canada coach Jesse Marsch, the final co-host nation, the United States, delivered the most dominant performance so far among the trio, defeating Paraguay 4-1.
Qatar then faced Switzerland in a game that ended 1-1, courtesy of a 94th-minute own goal by Swiss left-back Miro Muheim. Brazil’s meeting with Morocco also resulted in a 1-1 draw, with the African champions showcasing their quality throughout.
Scotland fans had reason to celebrate after John McGinn’s 28th-minute strike earned a 1-0 win over Haiti, marking their first World Cup victory in 36 years.
In Vancouver, Australia edged Turkey 2-0 in a match that was tighter than the score suggested. Nestory Irankunda opened the scoring with a spectacular strike, and Connor Metcalfe sealed the result with 15 minutes left on the clock.
Germany then produced one of the standout performances of the tournament, thrashing Curacao 7-1. Remarkably, the Germans have now been involved in three of the five World Cup matches this century where a team has scored seven or more goals.
Netherlands versus Japan delivered a classic, with Japan fighting back twice from behind to secure a 2-2 draw. Later, Cote d'Ivoire claimed a dramatic 1-0 win over Ecuador, courtesy of a sharp late finish by Amad Diallo.
In the most recent encounter, played in the early hours of Monday, Sweden ran out 5-1 winners against Tunisia, with goals from Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyokeres, Yasin Ayari, and Mattias Svanberg.
