U.S. Men's Soccer Stuns Australia

The U.S. men’s soccer team just stunned Australia 2-0 in Seattle, securing their World Cup knockout stage spot with fire, grit, and a breakout performance from 21-year-old Alex Freeman — who netted his first World Cup goal right before halftime. Even without Christian Pulisic, the squad dominated from the start, including an own-goal by Australia’s Cameron Burgess. With six points, they’re now group leaders heading into their final match against Turkey, while Australia drops to three points. This win signals a serious, deep-run contender — echoing their 1994 third-place finish and round-of-16 exit, but this time, they’re playing with purpose and precision.
