World Cup 2026 schedule for Day 4 is announced, with two free live broadcast channels covering two title favorites and Asia's leading team starting their campaigns.
On 14 June, the Day 4 schedule for World Cup 2026 is released along with details of free live broadcast channels. The day marks the debut matches for Germany and the Netherlands, two favorites to win the title, as well as Japan, Asia's number one team.
Germany, four-time former world champions, will play their opening match hosting debutants Curaçao, the smallest nation ever to participate in the World Cup tournament.
The main highlight is the Netherlands, still seeking their first world title, facing Japan, who have ambitious goals to become the first Asian country to win the World Cup. However, Japan will be missing three star players—Kaoru Mitoma, Takumi Minamino, and Wataru Endo—who have withdrawn due to injury.
Sweden, featuring two expensive Premier League strikers Alexander Isak (Liverpool) and Victor Jörgensen (Arsenal) as key players, will start their campaign against Tunisia.
