FIFA World Cup 2022 matches, December 2 schedule: Which teams are playing today in Qatar?

The group stage of the ongoing FIFA World Cup 2022 is all set to culminate today as multiple teams vying for spots in knock outs of the quadrennial showpiece event in Qatar.

South Korea vs Portugal

Last week, South Korea lost to Ghana in a five-goal thriller; however, they must beat Portugal in Friday's game to have any chance of progressing, provided the outcome from the Group H match between Ghana and Uruguay goes South Korea’s way.

In the 2002 World Cup, South Korea beat the 2016 European champion Portugal when the game was played on their soil.

Serbia vs Switzerland

First beating Serbia 2-0 and then winning 1-0 against Switzerland on Monday, Brazil reached the round of 16 even before playing against Cameroon in their last group stage game. The game between Serbia and Switzerland on Friday at the World Cup will be a head-to-head eliminator. The winner will advance alongside Group G leader Brazil.
However, Switzerland is in second place, so if they manage to get a draw against Serbia, they’ll also be advancing.

Ghana vs Uruguay

Uruguay must win against Ghana to avoid an embarrassing early exit. At the same time, Ghana will need a draw against Uruguay to join Portugal in the knockout phase after it has produced five-goal thrillers in its two opening matches this World Cup.

However, to go through the group stage, Uruguay must win in Al Wakrah on Friday by firing its big-name forwards.

Brazil vs Cameroon

For the final Group G match against Cameroon on Friday, there could be a rotation in the World Cup Squad for Brazil. Brazil coach Tite can choose to keep some players fresh for a probable Monday match.
