On June 13, 2026, two World Cup matches took place in the United States. The host team USA faced Paraguay in Los Angeles and won convincingly. Striker Folarin Balogun scored a brace, while substitutes Giovanni Reyna and Timothy Weah also impressed. The defense looked solid, if not flawless.
The USA had entered the tournament with high expectations. Coach Mauricio Pochettino had called up players from top clubs such as AC Milan, AS Monaco, Bayer Leverkusen, and Juventus Turin. The victory over Paraguay confirmed the high hopes and appeased critics who had doubted the team amid the political circumstances surrounding Donald Trump.
Switzerland lost their match on the same day, a defeat described in the coverage as “sitting in a puddle.” The source did not provide further details about that game.
