ARLINGTON, TEXAS - JUNE 22: Lionel Messi #10 of Argentina celebrates after scoring his team's first goal during the FIFA World Cup 2026 Group J match between Argentina and Austria at Dallas Stadium on June 22, 2026 in Arlington, Texas. (Photo by Charlotte Wilson/Getty Images) | Getty Images

The World Cup is down to 19 teams, and by the end of tonight, it will be down to the last 16. Mohamed Salah and Egypt meet Australia in our opener. Australia started things off with a 2-0 win over Türkiye before losing 0-2 to the US, and ended on a 0-0 draw with Paraguay in Group D. Egypt started off with a 1-1 draw against Belgium, defeated New Zealand 3-1, and drew Iran 1-1.

Lionel Messi will be feeling quite at home as Argentina take on Cape Verde in Miami. Argentina began with a 3-0 win over Algeria that felt like a party for them (3 Messi goals), followed by a 2-0 win over Austria (2 Messi goals), and they completely rotated their squad but still got a 3-1 win over Jordan (1 Messi goal off the bench). Cape Verde have been one of the most fun stories of the tournament so far, gutting out a 0-0 draw with European champions Spain, another draw, 2-2 with Uruguay, where Cape Verde did a lot of attacking, and ending with a 0-0 draw against Saudi Arabia.

Tonight’s late game (at least for East Coast viewers) is Luis Díaz and Colombia against Ghana. Colombia beat Uzbekistan 3-1, DR Congo 1-1, and drew 0-0 with Portugal to finish out their group stage. Ghana defeated Panama 1-0, drew England 0-0, and lost 1-2 to Croatia.

So, what will the games have in store for us today? Stick around, drop your comments, and have a great time.
