Team USA all but set to face Bosnia and Herzegovina in World Cup Round of 32
Key Points:
- The U.S. Men's National Team is over 99% likely to face Bosnia and Herzegovina in the Round of 32 at the World Cup after Bosnia's 3-1 win over Qatar secured their third-place finish in Group B.
- The U.S. won Group D and will play the third-place team from another group, with Bosnia ranked 62nd by FIFA compared to the U.S. at 14th, making it a favorable matchup.
- The U.S. still has one group game left against Türkiye, but with the U.S. already advancing and Türkiye eliminated, the match is largely inconsequential.
- If the U.S. advances past Bosnia, their Round of 16 opponent would be either the Group G winner or another third-place team, with Belgium being the only higher-ranked potential opponent.
- The U.S. team has been performing strongly, scoring six goals in two games and winning back-to-back World Cup matches for the first time since 1930.
