While the world’s football stars and favorites are preparing for the 2026 World Cup in luxurious, modern and air-conditioned team buses, the Curacao national team has decided to take a completely different route.
The debutants and absolute outsiders of the tournament, the football team of Curaçao, attracted enormous public attention after arriving at the competition in an old school bus.
The video of their arrival quickly spread on social networks, and the media described it as a “unrepeatable sight” with music and open windows, which added to the viral effect.

Although many professional athletes would probably reject such a mode of transport, the Curaçao players showed a relaxed and enthusiastic attitude, enjoying every moment of their historic performance on football’s biggest stage.
This Caribbean team is participating in the World Cup for the first time and has already won the hearts of fans around the world, regardless of the result.
However, when the competitive part begins, they are faced with an extremely difficult task. Curaçao is placed in a demanding group in which they will play against the selections of Germany, Ecuador and Ivory Coast.
