What team will USA face to win the World Cup? Bosnia and Herzegovina - There is a child
Mauricio Pochettino's United States have advanced to the knockout stage at World Cup 2026, taking on Bosnia and Herzegovina. This article details their chances against top teams like Belgium, Spain, France and England.
The World Cup 2026 will see USA, Bosnia and Herzegovina face off in the Round of 32. In a World Cup flashed by the world's leading players, 40-year-old forward Edin Džeko is still key, and 22-year-old Kerim Alajbegović secured Bosnia's third place after a 3-1 win over Qatar. America, if they are to fight in this tournament, is better than playing back against their opponents.
Round 32
Opponent: Bosnia and Herzegovina (July 1, 8pm ET, Santa Clara)
It is imperative that the United States use the talent of their players to gain the upper hand in the game. In theory, the United States should play an early game because Bosnia's opposition forces will face more challenges.
Round 16
Anticipated Opponent: Belgium (July 6, 8pm ET, Seattle)
Although Belgium has been a solid team in the last few matches, the USA may face a similar challenge to Belgium at the 2014 World Cup.

Quarter-Final
Anticipated Opponent: Spain (July 10, 3pm ET, Los Angeles)
Spain is our team's best friendlier game, but America needs to play with their bodies strong and their minds strong.
Semi-Final
Expected Opponent: France (July 14, 3pm ET, Dallas)
France, along with its talented squad, has superstars with it. But before the US can compete with players there, it will be a challenge.
** Final **
Anticipated Opponent: England (July 19, 3pm ET, New York-New Jersey)
USA and England clash in this world cup final is highly anticipated. America, with and without momentum, should be ready to catch England on its feet.
