"WASHINGTON After months of knowing it would be in Group D, the United States men's national team (USMNT) now knows the other three teams it will face following Friday's 2026 FIFA World Cup Draw. The Stars and Stripes have a favorable group, considering they have avoided some traditional world powerhouses as they will face Australia, Paraguay, and the winner of the European play-off between Turkyie/Romania/Slovakia/Kosovo."
"The United States automatically qualified as co-hosts alongside Mexico (Group A) and Canada (Group B). The US, though, will have the lion's share of World Cup matches, including the Final, which will be played at MetLife Stadium just beyond the New York City limits. This is the first time since 1994 that the United States will host world soccer's largest spectacle."
