Giants Germany take on minnows Curacao on Sunday as they kick off their 2026 World Cup campaign in Group E. WATCH — Germany v Curacao en Espanol Julian Nagelsmann's side aren't among the main favorites to win it all in 2026, but Germany's talented young squad still has a sprinkling of incredible experience and they are perhaps flying under the radar as a team who could make a deep run. That should suit them. Curacao are at their first-ever World Cup, as veteran manager Dick Advocaat oversaw a remarkable World Cup qualification to inspire the smallest nation (by population) to qualify for the World Cup. That achievement also inspired so many others around the world. The Caribbean minnows have the majority of their squad playing in Europe and could cause some shocks in this tournament.
