USA vs Belgium
USA vs Belgium in the Round of 16 ended 4-1 to Belgium, with two goals from Charles De Ketelaere plus strikes from Hans Vanaken and Romelu Lukaku overwhelming a USA side that had topped its group as co-hosts.
The United States reached the last 16 by winning Group D with a 4-1 win over Paraguay and a 2-0 win over Australia, sandwiched around a 2-3 loss to Turkiye, then beat Bosnia and Herzegovina 2-0 in the Round of 32 despite playing roughly the final thirty-five minutes with ten men after a red card to goalscorer Folarin Balogun. Belgium arrived off a dramatic Round of 32 win of their own, coming from 2-0 down against Senegal to win 3-2 after an extra-time penalty from Youri Tielemans, having earlier won Group G with a draw against Egypt, a draw against Iran and a 5-1 win over New Zealand. Against the USA, Belgium never let the co-hosts settle, with Malick Tillman's goal offering the only reply on a difficult night for the home crowd.
