Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need authoritative, grounded, real-time 2026 World Cup group standings with source-cited JSON output. It is preferable to generic sports APIs when you need canonical entity resolution aligned with Machina's unified tournament data model, or when you are already using other Machina World Cup endpoints for fixtures, forecasts, or player context.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or incomplete standings if the tournament has not yet started or group stage is not underway
- API returns an error if the request body is malformed or missing required fields
- Stale data if a match has just concluded and standings have not yet been updated
- Payment failure (402) if the calling agent lacks sufficient balance for the $0.01 per-call fee
