The United States’ World Cup run came to an end with a 4-1 loss to Belgium in the Round of 16. Defensive mistakes led to two first-half goals from Charles de Ketelaere and a second-half strike from Hans Vanaken. A final goal from Romelu Lukaku sealed the win for Belgium.
US Team’s Performance
The US team got its goal from Malik Tillman on a first-half free kick, but the second goal from de Ketelaere came just a minute later and snuffed out the US’ momentum. The team’s defensive weaknesses were exposed, and they were unable to recover.
