The U.S. men's national team take on the best teams from across the globe at next year's World Cup. Here's what to know.

A nostalgic dive into the best World Cup finals, celebrating legendary players, dramatic twists, and timeless matches.

The holders were given a reasonably attractive group, and Argentina will be the clear favourites to progress as the best of the four. That will bring a round-of-32 tie in Messi’s adopted home of Miami, and it could be a juicy one if Uruguay finish runners-up in Group H.

Today’s World Cup draw determined which teams will face off in the group stage, and also featured the awarding of the newly created FIFA Peace Prize to President Donald Trump. Follow live updates.

So, you’re excited that FIFA World Cup 26 is coming to Kansas City, but you’re confused by the hubbub regarding the Final Draw on Friday? Let KSHB 41's Tod Palmer explain what it's all about.

The full results of the draw can be seen here and you can also watch The Athletic FC Podcast team’s reaction to the ceremony on YouTube. History has a funny way of repeating itself, and for Moroccan, Brazilian and Scottish fans, this Group C draw for the 2026 World Cup is pure déjà vu as the three teams were together at the 1998 World Cup.

Still, the USMNT is facing a much smoother road to the knockout rounds than, say, England or France. England has 2018 runner-up Croatia, USMNT World Cup nemesis Ghana and Panama in its Group L while France has 2022 African champion Senegal, Erling Haaland and Norway and the winner of an intercontinental playoff.
