USMNT set for knockout match against Bosnia on July 1
Summary

The U.S. men's national soccer team will play Bosnia and Herzegovina in their Round of 32 match on July 1 in San Francisco. As winners of Group D, the U.S. is seeking its first knockout stage win since the 2002 World Cup. With Egypt's recent draw against Iran affecting Group B standings, Belgium's path has become more challenging as they face potential strong opponents in the knockout rounds. If the U.S. advances, a match against Belgium or a third-place team from another group awaits in the Round of 16, increasing the stakes for future matchups.
