How to Use the Printable Bracket
Print the two-page PDF. Page one shows all 12 groups with their drawn teams and space to track wins, draws, losses, and points during the group stage (June 11 to 27). Page two is the full knockout bracket from the Round of 32 through the Final on July 19.
As each group wraps up, write the top two finishers and the qualified third-placed teams into the Round of 32 slots. From there, fill in winners after each knockout match. The bracket mirrors FIFA's official draw structure, so the paths are pre-set.
For a group challenge, have everyone fill in their predicted bracket before the first match and compare results as the tournament progresses. Use escalating points per round to keep things interesting through the Final.
