GROUP D INFO

About Group D

Australia are seeded third in Group D, one of the tournament’s most intriguing groups featuring host nation USA, Paraguay, and Türkiye. Their opener against Türkiye at BC Place in Vancouver kicks off at midnight ET — a match between two evenly matched sides that could define the group. The standout fixture is Matchday 2 against the USA at Lumen Field in Seattle — one of the most anticipated group-stage clashes of the tournament, with a massive American home crowd. Australia’s Matchday 3 decider against Paraguay at Levi’s Stadium in Silicon Valley is likely to be a must-win. The Socceroos reached the Round of 16 in Qatar 2022, defeating Denmark along the way before falling to Argentina. Matching or bettering that run in 2026 is the aim, with captain Mathew Ryan leading the squad alongside rising talents from Australia’s thriving football culture.
