FIFA World Cup 2026 Schedule in Spain Time
Track every FIFA World Cup 2026 kickoff in Spain time after the Saudi Arabia win, from the 2:00 a.m. CEST Uruguay decider to the July 19 final.
The FIFA World Cup 2026 schedule in Spain time now points straight at the Group H decider. Spain drew 0-0 with Cabo Verde, then beat Saudi Arabia 4-0 in Atlanta to move onto four points. Uruguay vs Spain starts at 2:00 a.m. CEST on Saturday, June 27 at Guadalajara Stadium, while Cabo Verde vs Saudi Arabia runs at the same Spain-time slot in Houston. The tournament still closes at 9:00 p.m. CEST on Sunday, July 19.
Timeanddate keeps Madrid on CEST at UTC+2 until October 25, 2026, so Spain stays six hours ahead of Eastern Time through the full tournament window. FIFA lists Uruguay vs Spain as Match 66 at 00:00 UTC on June 27, which converts to 2:00 a.m. CEST in Madrid. The 2026 World Cup started on June 11 and ends on July 19, so every remaining Spain entry needs the CEST date checked before kickoff.
Most searches in Spain now center on the Spain national team because La Roja can still shape the top of Group H. Spain lead the group with four points after two matches, while Uruguay and Cabo Verde sit close behind on two points. The Saudi Arabia win restored Spain's margin, yet the Uruguay match still needs overnight planning because the decisive kickoff lands after midnight in Spain.
Spain uses CEST at UTC+2 throughout the World Cup, so every kickoff runs six hours ahead of ET. Spain drew 0-0 with Cabo Verde and beat Saudi Arabia 4-0, so Uruguay vs Spain is next at 2:00 a.m. CEST on Saturday, June 27. The final begins at 9:00 p.m. CEST on Sunday, July 19.
