Method: group matches simulated with a Poisson goals model driven by Elo difference (host boost for USA/MEX/CAN); top two per group plus the eight best third-placed teams advance. Once the real round of 32 is set, the simulation runs the actual bracket โ€” played knockout games are fixed to their real winners (shootouts included) and only the remaining ties are simulated; before that, the bracket is Elo-seeded. โ€œAdvanceโ€ = reach the round of 32.
