arrive in exceptional form. Ranked

victories over Iceland, Honduras, Zambia, Mauritania, and Angola. Their blend
of attacking quality, defensive stability, and championship experience makes
them one of the strongest teams in the competition.
🇩🇿 Algeria

Bolivia, the Netherlands, and Guatemala, combined with a draw against Uruguay,
demonstrate their ability to compete against quality opposition. Their defensive
discipline and organization continue to be major strengths.
