Bosnia and Herzegovina has officially qualified for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which will be the second time the country has participated in the tournament.

波黑已正式晉級 2026 年 FIFA 世界盃，這將是該國第二次參加此項賽事。

The national team confirmed its place in March after winning a penalty shootout against Italy. This is a major achievement because the team has not played in a World Cup since 2014. Under the management of Sergej Barbarez, who took over in April 2024, the squad combines experienced veterans with young talent. Interestingly, seventeen of the twenty-six players were born outside the country, showing the influence of the global diaspora.

國家隊在三月份經過與義大利的點球大戰後，正式確認晉級資格。這是一項重大成就，因為該隊自 2014 年以來就未曾參加過世界盃。在 2024 年四月接任的 Sergej Barbarez 領軍下，陣容結合了經驗豐富的老將與年輕才俊。有趣的是，26 名球員中有 17 人出生在國外，顯示出全球僑民的影響力。

At the center of the team's strategy is 40-year-old striker Edin Dzeko. As the most experienced player with 148 appearances and 73 goals, Dzeko provides essential leadership and stability. His successful career at clubs like Manchester City and Wolfsburg is often seen as a symbol of national strength. Furthermore, the team is introducing new talent, such as 18-year-old Kerim Alajbegovic and 21-year-old Esmir Bajraktarevic, who was born in the United States.

球隊策略的核心是 40 歲的前鋒 Edin Dzeko。作為出賽 148 場、攻入 73 球的最資深球員，Dzeko 提供了至關重要的領導力與穩定性。他在曼城和狼堡等球會的成功職業生涯，常被視為國家實力的象徵。此外，球隊正引入新血，例如 18 歲的 Kerim Alajbegovic 以及出生於美國、21 歲的 Esmir Bajraktarevic。

Bosnia and Herzegovina is placed in Group B, where they will play against Canada, Switzerland, and Qatar. The team officials admitted that they are the underdogs, especially for their first match against Canada on June 12. Consequently, their main goal is to move past the group stage, something they have never achieved before.

波黑被分在 B 組，將對陣加拿大、瑞士和卡達。球隊官員承認他們是處於劣勢的一方，尤其是 6 月 12 日對陣加拿大的首場比賽。因此，他們的主要目標是闖出分組賽，而這是他們此前從未實現過的目標。

The team is now preparing for their Group B matches, relying on a mix of young players and the experienced leadership of Edin Dzeko.

球隊目前正為 B 組比賽做準備，依賴年輕球員與 Edin Dzeko 經驗豐富的領導力。
