The group stage of the 2026 FIFA World Cup is coming to an end, but there are still plenty of games to be played in Dallas and Kansas City.
The two cities will host the final round of Group F, with games between Japan vs. Sweden and Tunisia vs. the Netherlands. While Tunisia has already been eliminated, a lot can happen in the top three spots as the Netherlands and Japan are tied with four points and Sweden sits at third with three.
The Netherlands and Japan can both win the group, with the Dutch team currently holding a one-goal advantage in the tiebreaker rule. Sweden can win the group if it beats Japan and the Netherlands loses to Tunisia, and can guarantee second place with a win regardless of the other game's result.
Kansas City will also host another group stage game on Saturday, between Algeria and Austria.
Then, the tournament moves into its win-or-go-home stage.
Dallas is hosting two Round of 32 matchups, on Tuesday between the second-place finishers of groups E and I, and on Friday between the second-place finishers of groups D and G.
Those matchups have yet to be decided, and there are many possibilities on all sides. In Group E, Ivory Coast, Curaçao and Ecuador can all secure the second spot after the final group match on Thursday, while Group I will be between France and Norway.
The second Dallas matchup is also undecided, with Group D's second place being decided on Thursday after the Australia vs. Paraguay game, and Group G being between Iran, Belgium and New Zealand, who play their final group game on Friday.
Kansas City will host a Round of 32 game between the winner of Group K, which will be Colombia or Portugal, and a top third-place finisher from groups D, E, I, J or L. KC's final game will be a quarterfinal on Saturday, July 11.
Dallas won't host in the quarters, but will have a Round of 16 game on July 6 and a semifinal game on July 14.
Here's the full remaining schedule in Dallas and Kansas City.
