Here are the teams that have so far qualified for the 2018 Russia World Cup so far:

MEXICO: Mexico have remained unbeaten in their qualifying round and booked their spot for the World Cup by beating Panama 1-0.
From Asia –
IRAN: Iran, who drew against Syria 2-2 last night, made it to their fifth yet second consecutive World Cup. They have, however, only managed one win in the tournament so far.

JAPAN: Japan is going to make its sixth consecutive appearance at the World Cup
SAUDI ARABIA:  Soudi Arabia will be making an appearance at the World Cup for the first time since 2006.
