Football fans around the world agreed that the most brutal group, or the so-called 'group of death,' after the draw for the 2026 World Cup is the group with Norway, France, and Senegal, along with the winner of the playoffs, which include Iraq, Bolivia, and Surinam. France's coach, Didier Deschamps, the 2018 world champion, shook hands with his Norwegian counterpart Ståle Solbakken with a puzzled expression, especially after the strong performance of Haaland and his teammates in the qualifiers. Norwegian star Erling Haaland, Manchester City striker, published a video an hour before the draw showing him receiving his 100th burger last month to celebrate the national team's first qualification in 28 years after defeating Estonia. Senegal, in turn, has consistently put on strong performances in major tournaments.
