How to watch Turkey vs USA: Free Streams, TV Channels & Kick-Off time as FIFA World Cup 2026 co-hosts eye perfect group-stage campaign
Co-hosts USA will aim to round off a perfect Group D campaign against already-eliminated Turkey at the FIFA World Cup 2026, and you can live stream the game around the world for free.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side could hardly have dreamed of a better start to their home World Cup, with a 2-0 win over Australia that clinched top spot in Group D with a game to spare. The USMNT head coach has suggested key figures Folarin Balogun, Tyler Adams, Chris Richards and Antonee Robinson will get a rest, with the quartet all one booking away from a one-game ban. ‘Captain America’ Christian Pulisic should return after missing the Socceroos win with a calf issue. The US will be keen to maintain their momentum, with Bosnia & Herzegovina almost certain to follow in the last 32.
Of all the 48 teams at this World Cup, Turkey have arguably been the biggest disappointments. A talented side featuring Real Madrid star Arda Guler and Juventus’ Kenan Yildiz have failed to score a goal in North America, let alone claim a point, despite taking 62 shots in their opening two matches. After a shock 2-0 defeat by Australia, Vincenzo Montella’s men conceded inside two minutes on their way to a 1-0 reverse against Paraguay. Their inferior head-to-head record means they are guaranteed to finish bottom of the group in their first World Cup for 24 years, when they won bronze.
