No draws, no group permutations, no second chances. The loser&#8217;s tournament ends here.<\/p>\n<h3>Intro<\/h3>\n<p>The co-hosts continue their World Cup on home soil against an opponent making real history of their own. USA wrapped up Group D with a game to spare thanks to wins over Paraguay and Australia, though a 3-2 loss to T\u00fcrkiye on the final matchday \u2014 conceding the winner with the last kick of the game \u2014 denied them an unbeaten run through the group. Bosnia and Herzegovina, reaching the knockout stage for the first time in their history, squeezed through as one of the eight best third-placed teams after a draw with Canada, a heavy defeat to Switzerland, and a statement win over Qatar. Led by 40-year-old icon Edin D\u017eeko, this is a Bosnia side with little to lose and a growing legend at the front of it.<\/p>\n<h2>What&#8217;s at Stake<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Knockout Football<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is no group table to lean on.

The sides then drew 0-0 on US soil in January 2018, before USA won the most recent meeting 1-0 in December 2021 thanks to a late Cole Bassett goal. The head-to-head record favours USA, but a competitive World Cup knockout tie is uncharted territory for both nations against each other.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>USA vs
