How to watch USA vs Belgium: Free Streams, TV Channels & Kick-Off time as FIFA World Cup 2026 co-hosts eye quarter-final place
Co-hosts USA have been boosted by the news that Folarin Balogun is available for their FIFA World Cup 2026 last-16 clash with Belgium in Seattle — and you can live stream the game around the world for free.
Balogun went from hero to zero in the 2-0 win over Bosnia in the last 32, scoring his third goal of the tournament before receiving a straight red card for a clumsy challenge on Tarik Muharemovic in the second half. USA’s top goalscorer looked set to miss the clash with Belgium as a result, but FIFA announced on Sunday that his one-match ban would be suspended for one year – with US President Donald Trump later revealing that he had asked FIFA counterpart Gianni Infantino to review the decision. It is a huge boost for USMNT boss Mauricio Pochettino, whose team are the last co-hosts left in the competition after Canada and Mexico exited over the weekend.
Seattle is familiar territory for Belgium, who drew their opening match against Egypt here before returning for their dramatic last-32 win over Senegal. The Red Devils looked dead and buried in the latter game as they entered the closing stages trailing 2-0, but Romelu Lukaku and captain Youri Tielemans scored in quick succession to take the contest to extra-time, before Tielemans slotted home a controversial penalty with virtually the last kick of the match. Manager Rudi Garcia will know his side got out of jail and must improve against the USA, with Lukaku pushing to start after making an impact off the bench.
