Four years ago, during the 2022 World Cup, the U.S. men’s national team had a mixed performance, ending with one win, one loss, and two draws.
The team, featuring key players like Christian Pulisic, Tim Ream, and Matt Turner, was eliminated in the round of 16 after a 3-1 defeat against the Netherlands, which was quite disappointing.
This Friday, on June 12, Pulisic, Ream, and Turner will kick things off again as they take on Miguel Almiron’s Paraguay at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, marking the start of the 2026 World Cup.
If you’re looking to support the USMNT from home while the Rams and Chargers are also playing, there are still tickets available for this important Group D match.
As of now, the lowest ticket price found on SeatGeek is $918, including fees.
Seats on the 100 level start at $1,482 with additional fees.

Unfortunately, the United States team is dealing with injuries following a 2-1 loss to Germany in a friendly prior to the cup match.
Nonetheless, there’s a sense of optimism. “We’re ready,” said Ream, the team captain. “Sure, there are moments that could improve, but I think the last two weeks have gone pretty well.”
On the upside, star player Chris Richards might return; he’s making progress after hurting himself on May 17 while playing for Crystal Palace in the Premier League.
On the flip side, Paraguay may miss star Julio Enciso, who left the field on a stretcher during a recent match against Nicaragua.
As reported, “The stadium fell silent as the young midfielder took to the field,” and it seems he will be out for the opener against the U.S. on June 12.
