Teams’ Journey to This Knockout Stage
The U.S. team enters the knockout rounds after dominating Group D, boasting wins like a 4-1 victory over Paraguay and 2-0 against Australia. Christian Pulisic is back from injury to lead alongside Folarin Balogun and Weston McKennie. Despite resting starters in their last group game, the squad looks poised to break their streak of early World Cup exits—the U.S. has only once advanced beyond the Round of 16 since 1994.
On the other side, Bosnia and Herzegovina come in with momentum, having reached the knockout stage for the first time in just their second World Cup appearance. Their progress through Group B included a draw with Canada and a win over Qatar. Key players like Ermin Mahmic, Kerim Alajbegovic, Jovo Lukic, Edin Dzeko, and Esmir Bajraktarevic have been crucial to their success.
