The United States are hoping to prolong their dream home World Cup as they face Belgium with a place in the quarter-finals on the line.
Mauricio Pochettino guided the US to only their second-ever knockouts win as they brushed aside Bosnia and Herzegovina, with star man Folarin Balogun and Malik Tillman scoring in Santa Clara.
However, the co-hosts were also dealt a ****** ing blow in that match with Balogun controversially seeing red - a decision that could not be overturned, to the ire of Pochettino.
This means the US will have to do without their in-form striker against Belgium, who produced the most dramatic win of the tournament against Senegal in the round of 32 to reach this stage.
Here’s everything you need to know.
