The United States is through to the Round of 32 at the 2026 FIFA World Cup after winning Group D.
Following victories over Paraguay and Australia to clinch the group, Mauricio Pochettino rested several key starters in the final group-stage match. With a heavily rotated lineup, the USA closed out the group stage with a 3-2 loss against Türkiye, giving up a stoppage time goal (90’+8′) to Kaan Ayhan.
Luckily for the Americans, the game had zero implications on its seeding or tournament path.
The U.S. will now face Bosnia and Herzegovina in the Round of 32 on July 1 at San Francisco Bay Area Stadium. The matchup became official on Thursday after Bosnia and Herzegovina advanced as one of the tournament’s best third-place teams.
With the showdown now set, FanDuel has released the opening betting odds for the huge Round of 32 matchup.

The United States winning Group D marks just the third time in history that the Americans have finished atop their group at a men’s World Cup. The U.S. previously accomplished the feat in 1930, finishing ahead of Paraguay and Belgium, and again in 2010, when it barely topped England for first place because of goals scored.
If the USA continues to advance, it will play the Round of 16 at Seattle Stadium, the quarterfinals at Los Angeles Stadium, the semifinals at Dallas Stadium and a potential final at New York New Jersey stadium.
