🧠 Match Summary

vs

The United States opened the scoring with an early stroke of fortune when Cameron Burgess headed into his own net in the 11th minute, gifting the hosts a lead they would never relinquish. Alex Freeman doubled the advantage just before the break in the 43rd minute, ensuring the USA went into half-time firmly in control at Seattle.

The Americans dominated throughout, holding 62% possession and registering 10 shots to Australia's five, though the Socceroos tested both goalkeepers enough to keep things interesting — each side managing two shots on target. A feisty affair under referee Felix Zwayer produced seven yellow cards combined, but USA's superior control ultimately earned them a composed 2-0 victory in Group D.
