Australia finished second in Group D at the 2026 World Cup and advanced to the round of 32.

Quick Scoop

That result came after a 0-0 draw with Paraguay, which was enough for the Socceroos to move on with four points.

Match Impact

  • Second place in the group meant qualification for the knockout stage.
  • Their next step was the round of 32, not an early exit.

If you meant a different World Cup year, Australia’s finish changes by tournament; for example, they reached the round of 16 in 2022.
