In Santa Clara, in the knockout stage, World Cup co-host the US moved into the last 16 of the tournament with a 2-0 win over Bosnia-Herzegovina on Wednesday.
Folarin Balogun opened the scoring in Santa Clara before being sent off in the second half, but Malik Tillman sealed the win with a free-kick goal.
