The United States Men's National Team (USMNT) is set to play Bosnia and Herzegovina in the Round of 32 of the FIFA World Cup 2026, marking their first knockout-stage match of the tournament.
The USMNT secured their place in the knockout stage after winning two out of three group-stage matches, including a 4-1 victory over Paraguay and a 2-0 win against Australia. They lost 3-2 to Türkiye after already clinching the top spot in Group D.
The match against Bosnia and Herzegovina is critical for the USMNT, as they seek their first knockout-stage victory since 2002. Bosnia and Herzegovina, making their second World Cup appearance, advanced to this stage with a record of 1-1-1 in the group stage.
A win would allow the USMNT to advance to the quarterfinals, facing the winner of the Belgium-Senegal match, while a loss would mean elimination from the tournament.
