The draw for the 2026 FIFA World Cup has determined that the Uzbekistan national team will compete in Group K. In this group, the team will face two strong opponents — Portugal and Colombia. The third participant in the group will be known later, when the winner of the intercontinental playoff matches, which will take place in the spring of next year, is determined.

This World Cup will be significant for Uzbekistan, as the national team will reach the final stage of the tournament for the first time in its history. Despite the high competition in the group with opponents such as Portugal — one of the favorites of this tournament — and a strong Colombian team, the Uzbekistan Football Federation expressed confidence that the team is ready to fight for advancement to the next stage.

The 2026 World Cup will be held in the USA, Canada, and Mexico, and it will be the first tournament with an expanded format, featuring 48 teams divided into 12 groups.
