Türkiye faces US looking to salvage World Cup pride
Under-fire coach Vincenzo Montella faces a massive test of pride as a misfiring Türkiye squad looks to salvage its tournament and score its first goal of the World Cup against the United States.
The Group D match at the Los Angeles Stadium will kick off at 7 p.m. Los Angeles time tonight, 5 a.m. Turkish time tomorrow.
Türkiye arrives at the World Cup after a 24-year hiatus and was hailed as a potential dark horse, but has instead endured a grueling campaign.
Following a 2-0 opening loss to Australia, a frustrating 1-0 defeat to Paraguay on June 20 sealed the country’s early exit from the tournament, leaving the squad playing strictly for reputation against the co-host in its final Group D match.
