Bosnia and Herzegovina

Bosnia and Herzegovina's footballing story is a relatively young one, but it is full of pride and passion. The Dragons made their World Cup debut at Brazil 2014, and though they were narrowly eliminated in the group stage, they did so with style — and with the prolific Edin Džeko leading the line. At the 2026 World Cup, a new generation returns to the world stage hungry to go further.

Built on Resilience and Quality

Bosnian football has always been defined by technical quality in midfield and a never-say-die spirit forged by the nation's history. This squad combines experienced heads with emerging talent, built around a hard-working, organised structure that makes them awkward opponents for anyone.

The Dragons have traditionally produced excellent midfielders and forwards, and they carry a goal threat capable of troubling far more illustrious opposition. Their strength lies in their cohesion and collective determination — a team that plays for one another and for a nation that adores them.

A Chance to Progress

Drawn into a balanced group, Bosnia and Herzegovina arrive with a genuine opportunity to advance beyond the group stage for the first time. The expanded 48-team format, with the eight best third-placed teams also qualifying, rewards exactly the kind of disciplined, competitive football the Dragons specialise in.

Every point will be hard-earned, but this is a side with the belief and quality to spring a surprise.

A Nation Behind Them

Few teams are backed as passionately as Bosnia and Herzegovina, whose supporters turn every match into a celebration of national identity. Organised, spirited, and determined to improve on their 2014 debut, the Dragons return to the World Cup with real ambition. Follow every Bosnia and Herzegovina match live on KickD.
