Group A Heats Up: Mexico, South Africa, South Korea and Czechia at the 2026 FIFA World Cup

The countdown is on. The 2026 FIFA World Cup runs from June 11 to July 19, 2026, and for the first time ever the tournament is co-hosted by three nations — the USA, Mexico and Canada — while welcoming a record-breaking 48 teams. That's the biggest World Cup in history, and Group A sets the tone with a fascinating mix: co-hosts Mexico, plucky underdogs South Africa, technically gifted South Korea, and a returning European powerhouse in Czechia. Here at NYC Factory, our family-owned NYC apparel store (proudly outfitting fans since 2008), we've channeled the spirit of every nation into a collection of vintage-style soccer tees that celebrate the beautiful game.

What makes our World Cup 2026 tees stand out is the detail. Each design uses a country's native name — NORGE for Norway, BRASIL for Brazil, NIPPON for Japan, ÖSTERREICH for Austria — for an authentic, collector-worthy look. It's a small touch that fans of true football culture immediately recognize. Browse the full lineup in our master World Cup 2026 collection, then dive into the Group A teams below.

Mexico: The Host Nation Carrying a Continent

As one of three host countries, Mexico arrives at the 2026 World Cup with home-field energy and a passionate fanbase that turns every match into a festival. El Tri will play in front of roaring crowds, and our vintage-style Mexico tees let you join the green wave wherever you watch.
