In World Cup Qualifying, over 200 teams battle for 32 (minus one spot for the hosts) spots at the actual World Cup, also known as World Cup Finals.
World Cup qualifying usually starts well before the World Cup. In Oceania and South America, the first games are played when the World Cup is still three to four years away.
