KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 32 continues today, highlighted by Team USA returning to the pitch to face off against Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Several watch parties are planned across the Kansas City area for the game, which kicks off at 7 p.m. from Seattle Stadium.

Speaking of watch parties, Tuesday night was a special one for fans of Mexico, which advanced to the Round of 16 in a 2-0 win over Ecuador at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City.

It's the first time the country has won a knockout stage match in 40 years, and fans at Kansas City's Power and Light District were there to celebrate. Fans also celebrated at watch parties at Sporting KC Park and the Rock Island Bridge in Kansas City, Kansas.

Today also marks the arrival of the Colombian and Ghanaian teams to Kansas City. They'll play in the final Round of 32 match Friday at Kansas City Stadium.

Earlier this morning, Kansas City bid farewell to the Dutch national team, which departed from Kansas City International Airport for Amsterdam. The Dutch were bounced from the tournament Monday night against Morocco. They left quite the impression in Kansas City.
