World Cup quarterfinals in the US feature France-Morocco rematch and Haaland-Kane duel
The quarterfinal matchups for the 2026 FIFA World Cup have been determined. The matches to be played in the US will feature a France-Morocco 2022 rematch, Spain-Belgium, Norway-England, and Argentina-Switzerland.
The eight teams remaining in the quarterfinal stage of the 2026 FIFA World Cup will compete on US soil. The matches to be played in Boston, Los Angeles, Miami, and Kansas City are crucial for the teams aiming to reach the pinnacle of world football.
The France-Morocco match, which will kick off on Thursday at 20:00 GMT in Boston, is a rematch of the 2022 World Cup semifinal. Morocco was eliminated in that tournament after losing 2-0 to France. This time, Morocco, missing Ismael Saibari due to injury, will try to stop the attack of a France side featuring Mbappe, Olise, and Dembele with a defense-oriented game under Mohamed Ouahbi.
On Friday at 19:00 GMT in Los Angeles, Spain will face Belgium. Spain, who have reached the quarterfinals without conceding a goal and set a record in this regard, are drawing attention with their controlled play. Belgium, on the other hand, reached this stage after a poor start in the group phase by beating Senegal 3-2 and the US 4-1.
One of the most anticipated matches of the quarterfinals is the Norway-England game, which will be played on Saturday at 21:00 GMT in Miami. This encounter will also feature a duel between the two stars in the race for the Golden Boot, Erling Haaland and Harry Kane. Haaland has scored 7 goals in 4 matches in this tournament. Kane has 5 goals.
Defending champions Argentina will play Switzerland on Sunday at 01:00 GMT in Kansas City. Argentina beat Egypt 3-2 in the round of 16, while Switzerland advanced past Colombia on penalties to reach the quarterfinals for the first time since 1954. Argentina, with a high average age, are known to struggle on counterattacks. Switzerland will try to exploit these weaknesses with fast wingers Johan Manzambi and Ruben Vargas, but Manzambi's injury status remains uncertain.
