Fiji aims to leverage its home advantage as the FIFA World Cup 2026 qualifiers progress this month in Suva. With match day three approaching, Coach Rob Sherman’s team is preparing for a strong effort to reach the semi-finals, set to take place in New Zealand in early 2025. Sherman remains optimistic, having kept most of the squad he coached earlier this year.
“We’ve had several friendlies during the September window, allowing us to work consistently with the team throughout the year,” he stated. “In terms of preparation for the qualifiers, things have gone pretty well, so I’m reasonably happy with the progress we’ve made,” Sherman added.
