03:27 BST - Hydration time!
03:13 BST - Paraguay v Australia is still goalless but the Australia are dominating with 71% possession.
03:11 BST - GOAL! Oh dear. Their lead lasted just seven minutes and finally - with their 63rd shot at this World Cup - Turkey have scored. Baris Yilmaz passes to Arda Guler who thumps home. 1-1.
03:02 BST - GOAL! USA take the lead through Auston Trusty! Sebastian Berhalter sends in a cross and the ball falls to Trusty who makes no mistake from close range. What a start for the co-hosts 0-1.
03:00 BST - And off we go!
02:58 BST - We are moments away from kick-off!
02:57 BST - As it stands, USA are already through to the round of 32 and will be looking to maintain their 100% record with a win, while Australia can progress with a draw. Paraguay must win to finish second, but a draw will see them qualify as one of the best third-placed teams.
Turkey are already out having already lost to Australia and Paraguay.
02:45 BST - Here's how the teams line up for the final two fixtures of the day/night.

01:55 BST - FULL-TIME! The Netherlands top Group F with a 3-1 win over Tunisia and will place Morocco.

01:39 BST - As it stands, the Netherlands will top Group F. Another goal for Sweden will see them leapfrog Japan and into second place. Tunisia are currently on course to finish bottom of the group having lost all three games.
Anthony Elanga's goal means Sweden are currently top of the 'third-best-placed-teams' table and will go through to the round of 32.
01:27 BST - How have the Netherland's not scored there? The Tunisia defence and goalkeeper are all at sea. Tijjani Reijnders takes a swipe at the ball but it hits the bar and Tunisia scramble the ball away.
01:21 BST - GOAL! Sweden were behind to Japan for seven minutes and Anthony Elanga levels the match. 1-1.
01:21 BST - GOAL! The Netherlands re-take a two-goal lead through Jan Paul van Hecke. They will finish top as it stand. 1-3.
01:17 BST - GOAL! Japan take the lead with a fantastic team goal. Ritsu Doan plays a one-two with Ayase Ueda who threads a ball through to Daizen Maeda who dinks it over the goalkeeper. 1-0.
01:15 BST - GOAL! Tunisia have a lifeline. Hazem Mastouri grabs a goal back with a thumping header from a Hannibal Mejbri cross. 1-2.
01:05 BST - The teams are back out and we're underway for the second halves.
00:50 BST - HALF-TIME!
All three sides are going through as it stands, but not a lot is going on in the first 45 between Japan and Sweden.
00:07 BST - GOAL! Brian Brobbey hammers home a second after a set-piece causes havoc in the Tunisia area.
00:04 BST - GOAL! Perfect start for the Netherlands as Tunisia's Ellyes Skhiri puts past his own keeper to give the Dutch an early 1-0 lead.
00:00 BST - We are up and running!
23:37 BST - The Netherlands only need a point against eliminated Tunisia to secure a top two spot, while Japan need at least a point against Sweden to secure automatic qualification, though four points from third might still be enough if they lose.
If both Netherlands and Japan win, goal difference separates them, with the Dutch currently leading that metric. It then goes to disciplinary records and then FIFA ranking.
The group winners face Morocco, runners-up meet Brazil on Monday.
Sweden must win to go through via the top two, and if they win and the Netherlands lose, they'll finish top. A draw sends them through as one of the eight best third-placed sides; defeat leaves them waiting on results elsewhere.
23:29 BST - Here are the lineups for both matches:
23:26 BST - Anyway, onwards we go.
Up next is the finale to Group F.
Here's how the table looks ahead of kick-off, with plenty still to play for for the top three sides who are jostling for position:
23:18 BST - Opta are reporting that Scotland's hopes of progressing are now down to about seven per cent, after being around 49 per cent immediately following their match with Brazil last night. Eek.
23:17 BST - Following Nilson Angulo's strike for Ecuador against Germany, four different Sunderland players have now scored at the 2026 World Cup, with only reigning European champions PSG having more.
23:09 BST - Ecuador sealed qualification for the round of 32 as one of the best third-place teams courtesy of a superb 2-1 victory over Germany at the 2026 FIFA World Cup (WC), ending a nine-match winless run against European opposition in the process.

23:08 BST - Nicolas Pépé’s double sent Ivory Coast into the FIFA World Cup (WC) knockout phase for the first time, as the Elephants’ 2-0 victory over Curaçao in Philadelphia sealed second place in Group E and eliminated the WC debutants.

23:03 BST - That result means Ecuador will join Germany and Ivory Coast in the last 32 for just the second time.
Strong chance they'll be playing England, too.
But it's awful news for Scotland, who are now looking highly unlikely to progress, but face an anxious wait nonetheless.
22:58 BST - FULL-TIME!
22:51 BST - Seven minutes have been added on between Germany and Ecuador.
Scotland fans could do with a German leveller here.
22:47 BST - It doesn't change much in the grand scheme of things in the group, but a win here could well solidify Ecuador's place in the last 32 as one of the best third-place sides.
Another goal wouldn't go amiss for them, mind.
We're into a nervy final five minutes.
22:38 BST - GOAL! Ecuador have scored what could be a massive goal against Germany.
Gonzalo Plata prods home from a flick on after the corner, and Manuel Neuer fails to deal with it. It's 2-1 to Ecuador!
22:26 BST - GOAL! Ibrahim Sangare feeds Nicolas Pepe inside the box, and he duly slots home to double the Ivory Coast's lead.
22:16 BST - CLOSE! Franck Kessie goes close to wrapping things up for the Ivory Coast, but his deflected effort skims just wide of goal.
22:06 BST - We're getting back underway.
Germany and the Ivory Coast are currently going through as the top two, while Ecuador currently have two points, which will not be enough for one of the best third-place finishes.
21:49 BST - HALF-TIME!
21:09 BST - GOAL! Ecuador draw level against Germany through Sunderland's Nilson Angulo, who lashes the ball with incredible pace and power into the bottom right corner.
21:07 BST - GOAL! Former Arsenal man Nicolas Pepe puts the Ivory Coast ahead against Curacao as they look to solidify second place in the group.
21:03 BST - It looked a bit like Aleksander Pavlovic left a high boot on Pedro Vite, but VAR doesn't even blink.
The Ecuador players are furious, but the goal stands.
21:02 BST - GOAL! Well that didn't take long at all!
Florian Wirtz sets up Leroy Sane for a shot on the edge of the box, and his finish sneaks its way into the bottom corner to put the Germans ahead inside two minutes.
21:00 BST - We're up and running!
20:10 BST - The lineups are in for the decisive Group E matches:
16:54 BST - The final Group E games kick off at 21:00 BST and there is quite a bit at stake, aside from guaranteed group winners Germany.
Ivory Coast are well placed to secure second and they will go through to the knockouts with a win or a draw against Curacao.
Ecuador's hopes are on a knife-edge with one point so far, and they will need to beat Germany and hope Curacao do them a favour by upsetting the Ivory Coast.
Curacao can also progress, but the odds are stacked against them. They need a win against the Ivory Coast and hope Germany beat Ecuador.
15:18 BST - The Netherlands have already qualified for the knockout stage and West Ham winger Crysencio Summerville has been a breakthrough star this World Cup.
A goal and an assist to his name after the first two games in Group F and he could have the chance to increase his tally when the Dutch look to seal top spot against Tunisia.

14:05 BST - Reflecting on Scotland's disappointing 3-0 defeat to Brazil, their hopes of a maiden World Cup knockout berth hang by a thread.
The Scots were run ragged and very much second best in Miami as Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior led a Brazilian onslaught.
They will now have to play the waiting game to see if their three points and minus-three goal difference will be enough for them to progress as one of the eight best third-placed teams.

12:02 BST - The other game in that group saw co-hosts Mexico record maximum points in Group A by brushing aside the Czech Republic 3-0.
Mexico were already confirmed as group winners before a ball was kicked, but a rotated side did the business to conclude a perfect three games.

11:33 BST - Overnight, it was historic joy for South Africa, who qualified for the knockout stage of a World Cup for the first time with a 1-0 win over South Korea in Monterrey.
Thapelo Maseko struck the lone goal in the second half to lift Bafana Bafana through Group A behind co-hosts Mexico.
South Korea have a chance of progression as one of the eight best third-placed teams.

11:00 BST - Good morning! We continue through the conclusion of the World Cup group stage with Groups E, F and D – in that order – being finalised today.
