The United States men’s national team advanced to the World Cup last 16 with a 2-0 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina at Levi’s Stadium in California. Mauricio Pochettino’s side will face Belgium in the next round.
The hosts dominated much of the first half, making good on their first-place finish in Group D by controlling possession and creating the better chances.
The breakthrough came just before halftime when striker Folarin Balogun latched onto a perfectly weighted through ball from Malik Tillman, created space for himself and slotted home in the 45th minute.
Balogun had earlier seen a goal ruled out for offside.
