Two teams who have booked their places in the last 32 with big wins meet in Seattle as Belgium take on Senegal at the 2026 FIFA World Cup – and you can live stream the game around the world for free.
Belgium shrugged off draws with Egypt and Iran to beat New Zealand 5-1 to top Group G. Manager Rudi Garcia would have been pleased to see Leandro Trossard score twice, while Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku also found the net. Lukaku dropped to the bench against New Zealand, so Garcia must decide whether Belgium’s record goalscorer is best deployed as an impact substitute. Charles De Ketelaere, who has yet to score at the tournament, can continue as a false nine. Center back Nathan Ngoy is available after serving a one-match ban following his red card against Egypt.
Pointless after two games, Senegal needed a big win against Iraq to have any chance of reaching the knockout stage. A 5-0 thrashing secured the eighth and final spot reserved for the best third-placed teams, with Pape Gueye scoring twice from the bench and fellow substitute Iliman Ndiaye also on target. Both are now pushing to get started. Crystal Palace striker Ismaila Sarr has looked consistently lively and backed up his double against Norway with another goal in the Iraq win.
Both teams will be relishing their chances of going deep into the tournament, with either the co-hosts USA or Bosnia-Herzegovina waiting in the round of 16.
