United StatesvsParaguay

This match is one of the 72 group-stage fixtures of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, pitting two of the four teams in Group D against each other. Every group plays six matches over roughly two weeks, with the top two finishers in each of the 12 groups advancing directly to the Round of 32 — where the knockout bracket begins. The eight best third-placed teams across all groups also progress, so even a third-place finish can be enough to keep a campaign alive.

The United States enter the 2026 World Cup as co-hosts, bringing an unprecedented level of excitement, investment, and pressure to a tournament that could be transformative for football in America. Paraguay are a South American side with a proud World Cup tradition built on defensive resilience, physical toughness, and an ability to grind out results in tight matches.

United States: The United States' best World Cup finish was third place in the inaugural 1930 tournament. Paraguay: Paraguay have appeared at eight World Cups, with their best result being a quarterfinal appearance in 2010 in South Africa, where they were eliminated by Spain.

The match is scheduled at Los Angeles Stadium in Inglewood, United States. Kickoff is scheduled for Saturday, June 13, 2026 at 01:00 AM (21:00 ET).
