Group D matches
Champions Remind Everyone Why They're Champions
Argentina, the team Lionel Messi built into world champions, showed up in Atlanta and made it look cruelly easy against a gutsy Australia side. Three goals, zero reply, and a statement that echoes all the way to the final.
Super Eagles Clip Lewandowski's Wings in Boston
Robert Lewandowski, one of football's greatest ever strikers, came to Boston desperate for a World Cup to define his legacy — and Nigeria's Super Eagles had absolutely no interest in being sentimental about it. Two goals, three points, and a statement that African football is here to be feared.
Kings vs. a Legend's Last Dance
Argentina are the team every group fears, and Poland have a striker who has spent his entire career proving he belongs on the biggest stages. June 19th in Atlanta is the kind of game that produces memories you describe to your grandchildren.
