Ivory Coast's talented young side will aim to make history when they face FIFA World Cup 2026 minnows Curacao in their Group E finale in Philadelphia, and you can live stream the game around the world for free.
The Elephants return to the scene of their dramatic 1-0 win over Ecuador in their opening game of the tournament, when they snatched victory thanks to Amad Diallo's 90th-minute strike. Franck Kessie gave Emerse Fae's side the lead against Germany last time out, but some inspired substitutions turned the game the four-time winners' way in a 2-1 win for the Europeans. Ivory Coast know a point or more against Curacao should see them reach the knockout phase of the World Cup for the first time, after three failed attempts between 2006 and 2014.
Curacao's introduction to the World Cup finals could barely have gone worse, with Germany handing out a 7-1 thrashing in their opener. Yet Dick Advocaat's proud side bounced back superbly by holding Ecuador, who finished second in South American qualifying, to a goalless draw. Goalkeeper Eloy Room made a record-equalling 15 saves that day to deliver the Blue Wave's first-ever World Cup point. Progress to the knockouts remains unlikely in a game they must win, but there have been upsets aplenty all tournament, so why not?
