(PHOTO) After the "match before the match": Belgium easily in the quarterfinals over the Americans

In the Round of 16 at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Belgium defeated the United States 4-1 in Seattle. The match was marked by early goals from Belgium, including a brace from Charles De Ketelaere, and a goal from Romelu Lukaku in stoppage time. The U.S. team struggled defensively, particularly on the flanks, and failed to capitalize on chances. Belgium advanced to the quarterfinals where they will face Spain, who had earlier eliminated Portugal. This result marks the exit of the host nations—Canada, Mexico, and the U.S.—from the tournament.
