05:00 CET - That is all from BC Place Vancouver, as Egypt come from behind to get the better of New Zealand and win a World Cup match for the first time at the ninth time of asking.

04:42 CET - It is 3-1! Salah is again involved, as the winger's corner finds Trezeguet, who puts his header into the back of the net. Surely now the Pharaohs will come out on top here.
04:27 CET - Egypt take the lead! It is the captain who is the rescue, as Mohamed Salah plays a one-two with Ziko before sliding the ball home. The Egyptians now have the advantage, and are now a quarter of the game away from getting their first win at a World Cup.

04:20 CET - And Egypt have their leveller. Mustafa Ziko responds for the Pharaohs with a powerful header in the box to tie things up at 1-1. Plenty of time is left for a winner.
04:05 CET - The referee has blown his whistle and commenced the second half.
03:50 CET - It is half-time in Vancouver, where New Zealand remain ahead after Surman's header. The All Whites are now 45 minutes away from a first-ever win at a FIFA World Cup, and will be quite pleased with how the opening half went.

03:15 CET - New Zealand take the lead! Finn Surman is the one to get his head from Tim Payne's corner to give the All Whites the first goal of the game.

03:00 CET - And we are off in the final match of the day, as New Zealand and Egypt look for their first-ever World Cup win in this match.
02:35 CET - The last match of the day is about to get underway as New Zealand take on Egypt. Here are the starting line-ups for both teams ahead of kickoff in Vancouver.

02:05 CET - The referee has blown for full-time, and once again, Cape Verde have managed to pull off another improbable result. They draw 2-2 with Uruguay, and have a realistic chance of progressing to the knockout stages.
It is a nightmare scenario for Uruguay, who will feel worried now as they have to face Spain in the final round. Things could truly get disastrous for La Celeste.
The final stats below.

01:35 CET - We have reached the hydration break for the second half, and the match is still far from settled. Both sides have led in this one, yet with a quarter of the game left, the score is 2-2. Can anyone steal it in the final 25 minutes?

01:25 CET - Cape Verde tie it up in incredible fashion! A disastrous mistake from Uruguay at the back sees Helio Varela, who just came on, get to the ball before Muslera and slot it home to restore parity in Miami. What a game we have here!

01:10 CET - The second half has now begun.
00:55 CET - We are now at the break in Miami, with Uruguay taking the lead against Cape Verde just before the interval. All three shots on target in the game have found the back of the net, though La Celeste have been on the front foot.

00:50 CET - And just like that, Uruguay turn it around. La Celeste take the lead just before the break as Augustin Canobbio is left alone in the box and finishes off Araujo's pass. For the first time this tournament, Cape Verde are behind.

00:44 CET - Uruguay respond! It was not the prettiest, but they all count. A header off the post is turned in by Maximiliano Araujo, and the game is nodded up at 1-1.
00:22 CET - Cape Verde lead! With just the second goal in this World Cup to come from a direct free kick, Kevin Lenini strikes it through the wall and past Fernando Muslera. And now, to the shock of everyone, Cape Verde are in front!

00:01 CET - We are underway in Miami for Uruguay vs Cape Verde - follow every kick with our LIVE audio commentary via the link above!

23:35 CET - It's time to go to Florida and to the home field of the NFL's Miami Dolphins, the Hard Rock Stadium, for the second Group H match of the day between Uruguay and Cape Verde, two sides yet to win at the tournament.

23:20 CET - It was hardly a vintage game in LA, but one man did stand out, and that was Iran goalkeeper Alireza Beiranvand, who earned the highest Flashscore player rating on the pitch (9.0), thanks to his clean sheet, seven saves and 1.70 goals prevented. Impressive stats, and another great keeping display at the World Cup.
Over to you, now, Vozinha!

23:01 CET - That full-time at the SoFi Stadium, and it has ended 0-0 between Belgium and Iran.
With Belgium ending the match with 10 men, you might think they've escaped with a point here at first glance. But really, Rudi Garcia's side absolutely dominated two-thirds of the match, and even ended the game with 70 per cent possession and 23 shots to seven, despite receiving the red card.
Really, this is two points dropped by Belgium and one gained by Iran and still, no one in Group G has won yet. New Zealand and Egypt meet in the late game tonight, so that might change. For now, it's anyone's group!
Read our full match report here.

22:50 CET - Moving back to LA, we're into the last six minutes or so of regular time, and it is still goalless between Belgium and Iran. The clock is ticking... Even being a man down, Belgium will rue their missed chances if they cannot find a breakthrough here.

22:40 CET - Today's third match is between Uruguay and Cape Verde in Group H over at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. The teams are in, and Uruguay coach Marcelo Bielsa has dropped Darwin Nunez. See how the sides will line up below.
Both countries are looking for their first wins of the tournament still, with Uruguay drawing with Saudi Arabia in their opener, and Cape Verde famously holding Spain to a stalemate. Can Vozinha pull off another masterclass between the sticks tonight? Kick-off is at midnight.

22:32 CET - Here's a twist! Belgium are down to 10 men with Nathan Ngoy being shown a straight red for tugging back an Iranian forward, who looked to be through on goal!
As the last man, the red had to be shown to Ngoy - hard to swallow, but fair, and the right call.

22:26 CET - Down the other end, Belgium are doing everything but score at the SoFi Stadium. They've just come extremely close to breaking the deadlock with Iran's Alireza Beiranvand making a brilliant save to deny Maxim De Cuyper and keep it goalless.

22:20 CET - Thibaut Courtois has been called into action to make another huge save for Belgium. It's a funny old game - Iran have had little of the ball, but they have had a couple of gilt-edged chances. Could they spring a surprise here?

22:10 CET - Belgium and Iran are back underway in Los Angeles. Follow every kick with our LIVE audio commentary via the link above!
21:54 CET - And it’s half-time at the SoFi Stadium, with Belgium and Iran still goalless. The biggest moment of the half was probably Iran’s VAR-overturned goal (for offside). But despite that decision going against them, they’ll probably be happy to still be level with the Belgians hogging the ball (81 per cent possession) and taking 11 shots at goal (four on target, xG of 0.90). Rudi Garcia's Red Devils, meanwhile, will need to make sure their dominance counts in the second half!

21:30 CET - At the first hydration break in Los Angeles, it is still goalless with Belgium dominating proceedings so far, with about 74 per cent possession. Iran have had a couple of chances, though, most notably forcing Thibaut Courtois into one terrific save, and then Taremi's goal that was ruled out for offside. Largely, they look happy to concede the ball and look for opportunities on the break.

21:27 CET - It looked like Iran's Mehdi Taremi had scored from a brilliantly clever free-kick routine there, but it's been overturned for an offside by the VAR. That's a shame, it had shades of that iconic Wout Weghorst goal for the Dutch in Qatar!

21:10 CET - We're underway in the Group G clash between Belgium and Iran, with the Europeans dominating the early stages in terms of possession. It only took three minutes for Romelu Lukaku to get booked on his first start of the tournament, however. Not ideal for the big man.

20:55 CET - The Belgian and Iranian players are out for the anthems at the SoFi Stadium, which means we are close to kick-off in the second match of the day.
As always, you can follow every kick with our LIVE audio commentary via the link above!

20:20 CET - Next up, we head to the SoFi Stadium in Southern California for Belgium vs Iran in Group G. Remember, both sides drew their opening matches, so they will be desperate for wins today.
The big team news is that Romelu Lukaku returns to the Red Devils' XI after his important cameo against Egypt, while Jeremy Doku is missing due to illness. Check out who's starting the game below:

20:07 CET - Full-time in Atlanta, and European champions Spain have taken a firm grip of Group H after a hugely dominant 4-0 triumph over Saudi Arabia.
The returning Lamine Yamal got the ball rolling with an early opener, before Mikel Oyarzabal's quickfire brace and a second-half own goal from Hassan Tambakti wrapped up three points for Luis de la Fuente's men.

As a result, La Roja have put all the disappointment of their opening stalemate against Cape Verde to one side, reminding the rest of the tournament just how dangerous they can be when firing on all cylinders.

19:33 CET - Saudi Arabia have made it through to the second-half hydration break without further damage, despite chances for Pedro Porro and Ferran Torres.
19:12 CET - Spain have scored a fourth early in the second period! Marc Cucurella's shot rebounds off defender Hassan Tambakti and beyond a helpless Mohammed Al Owais, to compound Saudi Arabia's woes.

19:09 CET - We're back underway for the second half at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium!
Spain have made a couple of substitutions, with goalscorers Lamine Yamal and Mikel Oyarzabal making way for Yeremy Pino and Ferran Torres.
18:52 CET - Half-time in Atlanta, and Spain are in cruise control against Saudi Arabia, with Lamine Yamal and Mikel Oyarzabal firing La Roja into a commanding three-goal lead at the break.
Luis de la Fuente's side have clicked into gear after toiling in their opening fixture against Cape Verde, as they look to stamp their authority on Group H.

18:37 CET - The one-way traffic shows no signs of slowing down, with Mikel Oyarzabal inches away from a hat-trick after directing a clever outside-of-the-foot effort against the bar.
18:25 CET - Mikel Oyarzabal has netted a quickfire double and Spain are running rampant against Saudi Arabia! Excellent play in the box involving Marc Cucurella and Dani Olmo picked out the Real Sociedad man, who made no mistake from six yards.

18:23 CET - Spain's dominant start in Atlanta is rewarded with a second goal! Mikel Oyarzabal pounces on a loose ball in the box to clinically finish into the bottom corner for his 26th international strike.
18:13 CET - Lamine Yamal has arrived at the 2026 World Cup! A superb low delivery from Mikel Oyarzabal finds the Barcelona man unmarked at the back post, and Lamine finishes coolly beyond Mohammed Al Owais to give Spain a dream start.

17:58 CET - The teams are out and the national anthems have been belted around the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, as we close in on kick-off between Spain and Saudi Arabia in Atlanta!
We'll be providing all the key updates throughout the match, and you can also follow live audio commentary via the link at the top of the page!

17:29 CET - After a frustrating goalless stalemate in their Group H opener against a Vozinha-inspired Cape Verde, Spain will be determined to kickstart their tournament against Saudi Arabia today.
La Roja, who are winless in their last four World Cup outings (D3, L1), have never gone five matches without a victory in the competition, while the Green Falcons are looking to go unbeaten across their opening two World Cup games for the very first time.

16:45 CET - The team news is in from Atlanta, as key man Lamine Yamal returns to the starting lineup for Spain!
Dani Olmo, Alex Baena and Pedro Porro also start for Luis de la Fuente's side, while Salem Al Dawsari and Firas Al Buraikan lead the line for Saudi Arabia.


15:57 CET - We're just over a couple of hours away from today's opening game, as Luis de la Fuente's Spain take on Saudi Arabia in Group H.
Ahead of team news dropping for that clash, check out our exclusive interview with former Spain defender Paco Jemez!
