Solomon Islands keeping a clean sheet against NZ is about the same likelihood as them winning the world cup lol. 100% attack, no defense, very entertaining to watch. New Zealand beat them 5-0 in 2022's playoff without really getting out of first gear Also, worth noting that out of the bottom 4 OFC nations, Samoa is far and away the best (beat American Samoa 10-0 the other day). Also, you mentioned that PNG have been improving but they're going through an incredibly rough patch in reality (lost 10-0 to Malaysia recently in a massive shock which has seen protests in PNG!)

OFC unfortunately isn't doing a home and away game for round 2. Just 1 game against each team. Meaning the eventual qualifier will only play 5 qualifier matches. Which is insane. OFC sucks and is very corrupt tho, so this isn't surprising.

Unfortunately we seem to be completely unable to score goals as of late. Since beating the Solomons 5-0 back in March 2022 to qualify for the WC playoff against Costa Rica, we've played 10 games and scored in just two of those (2-1 W vs China and 4-1 L vs Sweden). Hopefully the promise of an automatic qualification spot means we get our act together.

Nah, they changed that this year due to concerns that teams would collude with each other. Now its 12 groups of 4 teams each. Top 2, plus best 8 third place teams go to the round of 32. Similar to how the Euros do it, but with an extra knockout round.

Why remove Kosovo from Europe qualification? We're literally competing for euros currently, and have competed for the 2022 world cup. Youve literally just made your video false, by saying that only 53 teams can qualify for the world cup from Europe by not adding Kosovo. It doesn't matter wether or not you think they should be in the playoffs, they are. So good job ruining the validity of your video.

9:36 you put solomon islands instead of ukraine and how do you do the simulation

I'm a Croat and I would wait before I bet on Croatia qualifying for the WC 2026. We are in serious troubles with forwards. We don't have a single world class forward in the new and middle generation either. That's Dalić's fault who pushes on the pitch and in the team only his favourites players who have privileges other players don't. Even if we would qualify, we'll probably fail already in the group phase. Dalić's contract expires in 2026 so this will be his end.

I really hope hungary qualifies for the 2026 world cup, we have some great talents and a good squad that should be able to get into the World Cup and maybe even get past the group stage

Actually for European nations, qualifying will be a lot harder than passing the groups. We need to be one of the top 16 nations in Europe to qualify, and the World Cup will have 12 groups and the top 2 plus the 8 best 3rd place teams advance. So if we qualify, there's a chance all we need to do to advance is pumping someone like Oman or Salvador.
