Ecuador and Germany meet in their 2026 FIFA World Cup final group stage match on Thursday, June 25, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET from New York New Jersey Stadium.

Ecuador lost to Ivory Coast 0-1 in their opener and drew 0-0 with Curacao in their second match, entering this final group stage match without a win through two matches. Germany beat Curacao 7-1 in their opener and beat Ivory Coast 2-1 in their second match, with Deniz Undav scoring three times in the tournament so far, sealing Germany's place in the Round of 32 with a stoppage-time brace against Ivory Coast. Germany defender Nico Schlotterbeck has been ruled out of the remainder of the World Cup with a left ankle injury sustained during the win over Ivory Coast.

Germany and Ecuador meet up on Thursday at New York New Jersey Stadium in a Group E game where both teams face very different realities.

Entering the tournament, Ecuador was seen as a team capable of making a deep run in the knockout stages. In World Cup qualifying in CONMEBOL’s single table format, Ecuador finished second, only behind Argentina. Its defense was historically good as it conceded just five goals, including just one in its final 11 games.

After two games without a win, Ecuador is looking at a scenario where it needs to defeat a powerful German team just to advance.

Below are the details on how to watch.
