The United States men's national team is moving on to the World Cup's round of 16.
After picking up an impressive 2-0 win over Bosnia and Herzegovina, the USMNT already knows its opponent for the next round. Mauricio Pochettino's team will take on Belgium at 7:00 p.m. Monday at Seattle Stadium. The match will be broadcast on Fox and Telemundo, and can be streamed on Fox Sports or Peacock.
Belgium booked its spot in the Round of 16 with a wild 3-2 comeback win over Senegal on Wednesday. Trailing 2-0, the Belgian squad turned things around with late goals from Romelu Lukaku and Youri Tielemans. The match completely flipped in Belgium's favor in extra time as Tielemans converted a penalty in the match's 125th minute.
The win for Belgium marked the second time in the last 11 World Cups that a team trailed by two or more goals in the knockout round and advanced. Belgium also did so in a 3-2 victory over Japan in the round of 16 at the 2018 tournament.
Monday won't be the first time the U.S. faces Belgium in the World Cup's knockout stages. The countries faced off in the 2014 tournament, where Belgium secured a 2-1 extra-time win in the round of 16.
