The Haiti men’s national football team, nicknamed Les Grenadiers, is the representative team of Haiti in international soccer and is governed by the Fédération Haïtienne de Football. Haiti first qualified for the FIFA World Cup in 1974 in West Germany, where they competed in the group stage but did not advance further. Since then, the team’s international presence was limited, and Haiti went through decades without World Cup football.
In an incredible comeback story, Haiti qualified for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, ending a 52-year drought since 1974. They secured this historic qualification by finishing top of their CONCACAF qualifying group, edging out stronger regional teams such as Honduras, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua with key wins — including a decisive 2–0 victory over Nicaragua on November 19, 2025.
Group Stage — Group C
In the group stage, Haiti has been drawn into Group C, where they will face:
Brazil — A five-time World Cup champion and tournament favorite
Morocco — A top African squad with recent semifinal achievement in 2022
Scotland — A European team with strong World Cup history
This group presents a major challenge for Haiti, as Brazil and Morocco are football powerhouses and Scotland brings experience from European competitions. Nevertheless, the very presence of Haiti at the World Cup is a huge achievement and underdog story that has captured attention across the football world.
