MIAMI - The Final Round of the Concacaf Qualifiers to the 2026 FIFA World Cup continues with Curaçao hosting Bermuda in Group B on Tuesday at Ergilio Hato Stadium in Willemstad, Curaçao.
This occasion marks the first time the two meets in Concacaf Qualifiers for a FIFA World Cup.
Curaçao enters its second match of the Final Round in search of its first victory, after playing out a goalless draw against Trinidad and Tobago. Goalkeeper Eloy Room had a standout performance, recording six saves to secure the clean sheet. The draw extended Curaçao’s unbeaten streak to six in World Cup Qualifiers (4W-2D-0L), the second-longest in its history.
Bermuda will seek to bounce back after falling 4-nil at home against Jamaica. Kane Crichlow and Nahki Wells led the way offensively with four and three attempts, respectively.
The occasion presents the second matchup between the nations in their history. Bermuda claimed a 4-nil win in the only previous encounter.
