The U.S. Men's National Team (USMNT) suffered a surprising 3-2 defeat to Türkiye in their final World Cup 2026 group stage match. The loss, which occurred due to a last-minute goal in stoppage time, ended the USMNT's previously perfect run in the group stage.
The match saw a mixed performance from the American squad, particularly from its second-string players. Goalkeeper Turner received a low rating of 3/10 following the team's first loss of the tournament. The defeat means the USMNT now shifts its focus to the upcoming knockout rounds of the World Cup.
Reports indicate a subdued reaction from Mauricio Pochettino to Türkiye's winning goal. This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
