2026 FIFA World Cup Schedule in Colombia Time (COT)

First played in 1930 in Uruguay, the FIFA World Cup has grown from a small 13-team event into the most prestigious tournament in international football. It comes around every four years, and when it does, the whole world tunes in.

Over time, a handful of nations have really stamped their authority. Brazil lead the way with five titles, setting the benchmark everyone else chases. Germany and Italy sit just behind on four each, while Argentina, the reigning champions, have lifted the trophy three times.

Now comes the 2026 FIFA World Cup, opening a new era. More teams, more matches, and more chances for fresh challengers to take on the traditional giants.

Colombia’s story at the FIFA World Cup is one built on flair, passion, and a loyal fan base that lives every kick. Since debuting in 1962, Colombia have featured in several editions and carved out a respected place on the world stage.

The standout run came in Brazil 2014, when the team surged all the way to the quarter-finals. That tournament belonged to James Rodríguez, whose goals lit it up and earned him the Golden Boot.

Colombia also reached the Round of 16 in 1990 and 2018, proving they’re no strangers to the business end of the tournament.

As one of the 48 qualified teams in 2026, Colombia head into this World Cup with belief, looking to build on past highs and test themselves against the very best once again.

• 12 groups of 4 teams each
• Top two teams from every group qualify for the Round of 32
• 8 best third-placed teams also advance to the Round of 32
• Introduction of the Round of 32

From the Round of 32 onward, it’s straight knockout football, all the way to the final on July 19, 2026. More routes through the bracket, more drama — and more opportunity for sides like Colombia to go on a deep run.
