If you love soccer, the road to the World Cup is the biggest drama of the year. Teams across continents battle for a limited number of spots, and every match can change who goes through. Here we break down the latest qualifiers, key games to watch, and how you can keep up without missing anything.
A big story this week is Ghana’s draw against Senegal in the U‑20 AFCON group that also decides World Cup qualifying chances. The Black Satellites face a tough opponent, but a win could push them into the next round and keep their senior team hopes alive.
Another highlight is the clash between Nigeria and South Africa in the WAFCON qualifiers, where Michelle Alozie’s winning goal sparked celebrations before a serious injury halted the party. That game shows how high stakes can turn into heartbreak in seconds.
The easiest way to stay updated is through live streams on official federation sites or trusted sports apps. Most matches are also broadcast on local TV channels, so check your country’s schedule for kickoff times.
If you prefer quick updates, follow the tags #WorldCupQualifying and #AFCON on Twitter. Fans post live scores, goal clips, and tactical analysis that give you a feel for the game even when you can’t watch live.

Don’t forget to set reminders for big fixtures. The next round of African qualifiers kicks off on Saturday with Kenya facing Egypt. A win could catapult Kenya into a playoff spot, while Egypt looks to solidify its position as a regional heavyweight.
European qualifying is heating up too. Teams like Germany and Spain are already securing points, but surprises are common—look out for underdogs pulling off upsets that shake the group tables.
Remember, each continent follows its own schedule. South America’s CONMEBOL matches happen mid‑week, while Asia’s AFC games often fall on weekends. Align your calendar with the official FIFA fixture list to avoid missing any action.
