The Guardian FootballChristian Pulisic’s World Cup of TV stardom and ‘little glimpses’ ends in disappointment
For much of the star’s career, this tournament has been held as a high-water mark. Instead much of the USMNT’s success came without his involvement There was a quiver in Christian Pulisic’s voice as he answered the final question posed to him at the 2026 World Cup. On its face, the question was straightforward: how did the overall experience of this tournament meet his expectations? The subtext was overwhelming. For eight years, this World Cup co-hosted by the United States has been viewed as the potential high-water mark of his career and those of his teammates. Every machination of American soccer has operated with signposts displaying “2026” in bold. Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballWorld Cup 2026: USA bounced out by Belgium after Balogun furore; backlash against Fifa builds – live
⚽ News and previews before the final last-16 match-ups ⚽ Player guide | Bracketology | Golden Boot | Email us Let’s talk about everyone’s favourite subject: England! What a game that was against Mexico , by the way. I feel asleep about 1am (BST), woke up with England winning 2-1, just before Quansah got sent off and all hell broke loose. England’s defending in the final 20 minutes or so was an absolute work of art (thank you Dan Burn), even if Mexico’s attacking play lacked a certain amount of imagination. A magnificent performance by the players, not to mention Thomas Tuchel, who I feared had gone too early with the: ‘Play a back five, and just hack the ball anywhere’ strategy. Continue reading...
The Guardian FootballThe US had the biggest opportunity in the history of American soccer. They wasted it | Alexander Abnos
The USA men’s run at a home World Cup had attracted people who usually ignore soccer. Instead of triumph, they saw a humbling by Belgium In the closing moments of the USA’s 3-2 win against Portugal at the 2002 World Cup, the ESPN commentator Jack Edwards took a moment to remind viewers who had stayed up all night of the profound result they were witnessing. From his perch in Suwon, South Korea – where he was watching the first match of a campaign that would end in a quarter-final that remains the high‑water mark for the modern US men’s national team – Edwards delivered a soliloquy that cut straight to the heart of the profound role World Cups play not just for the USA men’s team but for soccer as a force in American life. “The players on that 1950 team that beat England … this [result] is about the foundation that they laid,” Edwards said in his booming bravado as the hour crept toward 7am ET. “This is about the thousands of American families who have helped this sport grow, and the people in those pockets all over the country who have stuck with soccer. And it’s also for those seven- or eight- or nine‑year-old kids, who are going to hear about this result when they wake up in the morning and rush outside, and knock a ball against a wall, and dream of something even greater than this.” Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballBelgium unites to enjoy national team’s World Cup success over USA and Trump
Fans across Belgium watched 4-1 win in early hours Victory ‘a real slap in the face for Trump and Infantino’ Belgium fans reacted with jubilation after the national team trounced the USA in a World Cup game that was overshadowed by the controversy over Donald Trump’s lobbying to overturn the suspension of the striker Falorin Balogun. Belgium’s prime minister, Bart De Wever, has yet to comment on the national team’s triumph, but the official Instagram account of his cat offered a sardonic, albeit indirect sign of satisfaction. Maximus, De Wever’s beloved cat, was shown lying on a rug holding a soft toy in the image of the US president. “I slept really well last night. And you?” reads the speech bubble in Dutch.
