While many nations are still vying for their spots in the next round of the 2026 World Cup, the USMNT and Turkey have already secured their group positions.
The USMNT has had a strong start to the tournament, claiming victories in their first two matches. Their six points have already placed them at the top of Group D, allowing them to manage their squad rotation and maintain player freshness for this game.
Turkey’s performance in this tournament has been disappointing, as they are no longer in contention for a spot in the next round. Their two losses have eliminated them from a third-place finish in Group D.
