Fiji aims to leverage its home advantage as the FIFA World Cup 2026 qualifiers unfold this month in Suva. With match day three on the horizon, Coach Rob Sherman is positioning his team for a strong effort to reach the semi-finals, scheduled to take place in New Zealand in early 2025. The coach expresses confidence, noting that he has retained most of the players from earlier in the year. “We’ve had a couple of friendlies in the September window, so we’ve been working with the team consistently throughout the year. In terms of preparation for the qualifiers, things have gone pretty well, so I’m reasonably happy with the progress we’ve made,” Sherman stated.
