The road to the 2026 FIFA World Cup intensifies for Gabon as the national team, known as the Panthers, braces for two decisive fixtures in September that could shape the outcome of Group F.

Led by head coach Thierry Mouyouma, Gabon enters the final rounds of qualification in strong form, sitting just one point behind group leaders Ivory Coast.

With 15 points already secured, the Panthers are in a prime position to make history—if they can navigate the crucial matches ahead without error.

The campaign resumes on September 3, when Gabon will take on the Seychelles at the Côte d’Or Sports Complex in Mauritius. Kickoff for this seventh-round encounter is set for 1 p.m. GMT.

While the Seychelles side sits at the lower end of the group standings, the Panthers are treating the match with utmost seriousness, aware that any complacency could derail their qualification hopes.

“The countdown has begun for the Gabon Panthers, who are preparing to play two crucial matches in September as part of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

The stakes are high for Thierry Mouyouma’s men, currently in a favourable position in Group F,” said a source close to the team.

Six days later, the spotlight will shift to Franceville, where Gabon will host Ivory Coast on September 9 in what many are calling a potential group decider.

The match at the Stade de Franceville is set to begin at 7 p.m. GMT, and anticipation is already reaching fever pitch among local fans.

“With 15 points on the board, the Gabonese Panthers remain neck and neck with the Ivorian Elephants, who lead with 16 points.

With two decisive clashes looming, every minute, every play, and every goal will count. The slightest misstep could prove costly in this thrilling battle for a World Cup spot,” added the report.

With qualification on the line, Gabon’s destiny now lies in its ability to seize the moment—and turn promise into history.
