2022 FIFA World Cup Group F

Matches in Group F of the 2022 FIFA World Cup took place from 23 November to 1 December 2022. The group consisted of Belgium, Canada, Morocco and Croatia. The top two teams, Morocco and Croatia, advanced to the round of 16, and later played against each other again in the third-place play-off game, with Croatia winning 2–1. Morocco advanced to the knockout stage for the first time since 1986. By winning the group, they became the first African team to do so since Nigeria in 1998. Belgium failed to advance out of the group round for the first time, also since 1998.

Notes

In the round of 16:

All times listed are local, AST (UTC+3).

The teams had previously faced each other once, in a 1996 friendly match that ended in a 2–2 draw.

Although Croatia dominated possession, the match was one of few chances, and ended in a scoreless draw.

The two sides would go on to face off again in the third place match, making this the second straight World Cup where the third place match was contested by two teams drawn in the same group (after Belgium and England did so in 2018).

The teams had faced each other once prior, a 1989 friendly won 2–0 by Belgium. This match made Canada's head coach, Englishman John Herdman, the first manager to coach a team at both the men's and women's FIFA World Cup.
