The moment has arrived for the United States Men’s National Soccer Team to elevate their game.
After securing a 2-0 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina on Wednesday, July 2, the USMNT now faces Belgium in the Round of 16 of the World Cup 2026. The series of matches held across North America since June 11 will culminate in the finals at MetLife Stadium on Sunday, July 19.
USMNT’s striker, Folarin Balogun, previously sparked attention due to his red card in the last match. Initially suspended from tonight’s game, CBS News reveals that FIFA has overturned this decision, enabling him to suit up against Belgium. Reports indicate that former President Donald Trump reached out to FIFA President Gianni Infantino on Thursday, July 2, advocating for a review of what was described to the press as an occurrence between “two great athletes that collided and became entangled.”
With Balogun ready to join U.S. soccer talents such as Christian Pulisic, Malik Tillman, and Matt Freese on the field, you may be keen to find out how to catch tonight’s World Cup clash in English. Here’s the current viewing information.
