Africa (CAF)

In Africa, the group stages have ended and are now decided in jumping matches (without return) 5 countries to the World Cup to be allowed to.

The most notable confrontation was between Senegal and Egypt, the re-release of the African Nations Cup this year and a duel between his Liverpool teammates Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah.

We also see familiar nations in other duels. Cameroon and Algeria have to fight each other, as Congo is trying for the first time since 1974 to qualify for the World Cup at the expense of Morocco. We also have Ghana, Nigeria, Mali and Tunisia.

The first leg matches on Friday, the return matches on Tuesday.

Just like in the African Cup final, Salah and Mane will meet again.

Asia (AFC)

Asia has 4 World Cup tickets and 1 extra jumping spot (versus the number 5 in South America). 2 of these 4 tickets were sold out: Iran and South Korea finished in 1 and 2 of their group (although this demand can change).

In the other group, there was still some tension left in the last two days of playing. Australia, which switched from Oceania to the AFC a few years ago, is currently only third, but still plays against Saudi Arabia and Japan. These three countries still have it in their hands.

Those who fall on the side of the road still have their jumps in hand, although they first have to deal with the number 3 from the other group, presumably the UAE.
