Kalachyov assessed the capabilities of the Belarus team

Former player of the previous "Rostov" team and the Belarus national team, Timofey Kalachyov, evaluated the chances of the Belarus national team participating in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

According to him, the team's qualification largely depends on the start. Since the opponents are strong, this task is very difficult, even seems impossible.

The "Sovetskiy sport" publication quotes Kalachyov's words. It is worth noting that the 2026 World Cup will be held in the summer in Canada, Mexico, and the USA.

The Belarus national team has never qualified for the final stage of the World Cup in its history. In the qualifying round, the Belarus team will play in a group with the national teams of Scotland, Denmark, and Greece.

Competition in this group is expected to be tough for Belarus. The team's success will largely depend on the results in the initial stages of the competition.

Additionally, the team's performance and mental state in each game are also of great importance. During the qualifying stage, Belarusian players must fully demonstrate their capabilities.

This is an important condition for realizing their dream of participating in the World Cup.
