The story of this one
Tunisia meet Japan at Estadio BBVA on Saturday, June 20, 2026, match 36 of the tournament and the pivot of the group — by now both sides know exactly what a win is worth. Group F sends its top two through automatically, with the eight best third-placed teams across all twelve groups also advancing — so neither side can afford a flat ninety minutes.
Monterrey provides the stage — nicknamed "El Gigante de Acero" (the Steel Giant); the Cerro de la Silla ridge looms directly behind one stand. Kickoff is 22:00 stadium time (CST); fans of Tunisia and Japan can check the exact hour back home in the times panel below.
