Day 20 of the 2026 FIFA World Cup<\/u> brings a loaded Round of 32 slate on Tuesday, June 30, headlined by Kylian Mbapp\u00e9’s unbeaten France taking on Sweden at New York New Jersey Stadium. Erling Haaland looks to power Norway past the Ivory Coast in Dallas. Then host nation Mexico, perfect through three group games, squares off against a red-hot Ecuador side in a prime-time showdown at Mexico City Stadium. All three matches air on FOX and stream live on FOX One.<\/p>\n
Midfielder \u00b7\u00a0Norway<\/p>\n
Understandably, Haaland receives the most attention whenever talking about the Norwegian national team. But RB Leipzig winger Antonio Nusa is one of Norway\u2019s most important players because he is one of the main scoring creators for Haaland. Nusa is going to be key in this game in making runs up the left side to get on the end of passes, typically from Martin \u00d8degaard or Sander Berge. If Nusa is effective with his crosses or passes, Haaland will be close to unstoppable.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Forward \u00b7\u00a0France<\/p>\n
As the reigning Ballon d\u2019Or winner, Ousmane Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 is a special player, but he didn’t score his first World Cup goal until this tournament. With that goal in the second game against Iraq, the floodgates opened, as Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 then scored a hat trick in the win over Norway in the group stage finale. Against a leaky Swedish defense, Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 could have a field day in this game.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Forward \u00b7\u00a0Mexico<\/p>\n
The Colombian-born attacker became a naturalized Mexican citizen in 2023 and has since become a very important player for El Tri. He was the Man of the Match in the opening win over South Africa and scored again in the win over Czechia. Now, he will be tasked with trying to find goals against a very good Ecuadorian defense. He has been in good form for most of the past year, and he recently finished as the top scorer in the Saudi Pro League for 2025-26 with 33 goals for Al Qadsiah FC.\u00a0<\/p>\n
