The FIFA 2026 World Cup continues on Monday with a full slate of group stage action, featuring four matches throughout the day. Here's where and how to watch today's games live on TV, including tournament-favorite Spain.
Spain will kick off the first game of the day on Monday against World Cup newcomer Cape Verde at noon, ET and Saudi Arabia will play Urugay later in Miami.
On Monday afternoon, Belgium will face off against Egypt in what is expected to be the more competitive match of the day. That group will close out the day with New Zealand against Iran in Los Angeles in the primetime evening slot.
The opening weekend of the World Cup delivered a mix of dominant performances including Germany's 7-1 win over Curaçao, Sweden's 5-1 win over Tunisia and the USA 4-1 win over Paraguay. Some of the more surprising results however ended in draws, such as the Brazil nailbiter 1-1 against Morocco or the 2-2 tie between the Netherlands and Japan.
