World Cup 2022: Everything you need to know about Costa Rica
Costa Rica is in Group E with Spain, Japan and Germany
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Costa Rica will make its third consecutive World Cup appearance after missing it in 2010. But the squad is looking to have a better tournament than they did in 2018.
Costa Rica failed to pick up a win in 2018 after losses to Serbia and Brazil and a draw with Switzerland. The squad’s only two goals came against the Swiss.
The team won seven matches in World Cup qualifiers and finished in the quarterfinals in the 2021 Gold Cup and beat New Zealand in the inter-confederation playoffs.
