The Netherlands secured top spot in Group F and advanced to the FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 32 with a 3-1 victory over Tunisia at Kansas City Stadium. The Dutch made a flying start, taking a two-goal lead within seven minutes through a Tunisia own goal by Ellyes Skhiri and Brian Brobbey’s third goal of the tournament.
Tunisia reduced the deficit after Hazem Mastouri headed home from a corner, but Jan Paul van Hecke restored the two-goal cushion with his first international goal.
The win ensured the Netherlands finished as group winners, while Tunisia exited the tournament without advancing.
