The USA will look to complete a co-host hat-trick in the last 32 of the 2026 FIFA World Cup – and you can live stream the USMNT’s clash with Bosnia and Herzegovina around the world for free.
After seeing Canada and Mexico reach the last 16, Mauricio Pochettino’s side are aiming to make it three wins out of three for the host nations. A 3-2 defeat by Turkey in their final Group D match put a dent in the USA’s momentum, albeit with a much-changed starting XI. Folarin Balogun, Christian Pulisic and Tyler Adams should return to the San Francisco Bay Area Stadium as the United States tries to do something it has managed only once before: win a knockout game at the World Cup. Their only previous win was back in 2002, against Mexico in the Round of 16.
This is Bosnia’s first ever World Cup knockout game in their second final, after crashing out in the group stage in 2014. They booked their place in the last 32, as one of the best third-placed teams, with a 3-1 win over Qatar in their last Group B match. Kerim Alajbegovic’s wonder got them going and the 18-year-old will once again be key, while manager Sergej Barbarez will also look to captain and talisman Edin Dzeko, who is just 22 years Alajbegovic’s senior. Tarik Muharemovic is available again after a one-game suspension.
