AllemagnevsCuraçao

Germany meet Curaçao at NRG Stadium on Sunday, June 14, 2026, match 9 of the tournament and an opening statement — first impressions in a three-game sprint carry real weight. Group E 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.

Houston provides the stage — was the first NFL stadium built with a retractable roof — vital against Houston’s heat and humidity. Kickoff is 12:00 stadium time (CDT); fans of Germany and Curaçao can check the exact hour back home in the times panel below.
