The United States Men’s National Team will face their highest-stakes 2026 World Cup match so far on Wednesday night.
After an impressive first place group stage finish, the USMNT will play Bosnia-Herzegovina in San Francisco, on Wednesday, July 1 at 8 p.m. ET.
The USMNT finished with impressive 2-1 record in the group stage with wins over Paraguay and Australia before a loss to Turkey, which occurred once the team had already clinched a spot in the next round.
The matchup versus Bosnia-Herzegovina represents the U.S. men’s team first knockout game following the group stage.
After 48 teams descended upon Canada, Mexico and the United States, 32 teams remained in the knockout stages, which started earlier this week, vying to hoist the trophy on July 19.
The winner of the U.S. and Bosnia-Herzegovina matchup on Wednesday will face off against the winner of Belgium and Senegal, who also play Wednesday, in another knockout round game on July 6 in the round of 16.
The loser of the game will be eliminated from the World Cup.
The round of 32 kicked off to a dramatic start, with Brazil coming from behind to beat Japan 2-1 before Paraguay eliminated Germany in penalty kicks Monday, in one of the most shocking upsets of the tournament so far.
Morocco also topped Netherlands on Monday to clinch a spot in the next round.
The U.S. match will be broadcast live on FOX on Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET.
