Fans of Bosnia-Herzegovina should have reason for optimism after the squad came away with one point in a 1-1 tie against host nation Canada to start their 2026 World Cup campaign.

Manager Sergej Barbarez took a cautious approach with star striker Eden Džeko since he’s still recovering from a shoulder injury he sustained back in March, but it could be time to give the 40-year-old a little more playing time.

That said, here’s a full list of Bosnia-Herzegovina’s squad and the clubs represented by each of the 26 players competing in the World Cup.

Keep Staying on the Positive Side

ESPN’s Aaditya Narayan wrote more on how Bosnia-Herzegovina could have a solid chance of making it past the group stage if they continue their unbeaten streak.

“Bosnia are nine unbeaten now, with their last loss coming back in September. They have drawn seven and won two of their nine matches since. Bosnia have drawn each of their last six games — five of them by a 1-1 scoreline. Two of those 1-1s with critical in helping them be here at this tournament, as they drew 1-1 and then proceeded to beat Wales and Italy on penalties in the playoffs.

But now is the time that Bosnia will look to make some progress, by converting some of those draws into wins.”

Who knows, Bosnia could be a sneaky pick for the Round of 32.
