Cape Verde, Spain, Egypt Back in Action: What To Know For World Cup Match Day 11

The 2026 FIFA Men’s World Cup group stage continues on Sunday as Groups G and H enter their second match day after all four opening games across these two groups ended in draws, meaning every single team enters the day level with one point. 

Spain and Saudi Arabia kick off the action in Atlanta, where La Roja looks to rebound from a scoreless stalemate in their opener against Cape Verde, while Saudi Arabia aims to pull off another surprising result. Attention then turns to Los Angeles as Belgium faces Iran, with the Red Devils trying to earn three points after an opening draw. 

The third match takes us to Miami, where Uruguay looks to come away with three points against a Cape Verde side that has already created one of the biggest results of the tournament. Finally, the nightcap in Vancouver features New Zealand going against Egypt.

The 48-team format can be forgiving with eight of 12 third-place teams advancing to the knockouts, but a lot is at stake as Spain takes on Saudi Arabia on Sunday at Atlanta Stadium. With every team in Group H tied at one point, a win secures a clear path to advance, while a loss creates immense pressure in the group finale.

Spain enters this match searching for answers after a frustrating 0-0 draw against debutants Cape Verde. La Roja was unable to convert in the final third as star forwards Mikel Oyarzabal and Ferran Torres were both guilty of squandering scoring opportunities, but Cape Verde’s 40-year-old keeper Vozinha had an incredible performance to secure a clean sheet.

For Saudi Arabia, confidence is sky-high after grinding out an impressive 1-1 draw against Uruguay, taking a surprise lead in the 41st minute when defender Abdulelah Al-Amri scored. Though they eventually conceded an equalizer, Saudi Arabia’s disciplined defensive shape and absolute resilience showed they are comfortable absorbing heavy pressure. 

Both teams will look to control the tempo, but Spain’s elite midfield and attacking depth can provide the upper hand if they find their confidence.

Player to Watch

The Barcelona prodigy came off the bench in the opening match, but even he wasn’t able to get one past Cape Verde’s Vozinha. Expected to step into the starting lineup on Sunday, Yamal brings the elite vision, pace, and creativity La Roja desperately needs to unlock a stubborn Saudi defense.

Belgium enters this match against Iran following a disappointing 1-1 draw against Egypt in Seattle. The Red Devils looked uncharacteristically disjointed early on, conceding a 19th-minute goal to Emam Ashour. While a second-half own goal from Mohamed Hany salvaged a point, head coach Rudi Garcia’s squad left the pitch knowing they probably left points on the field.

Iran is coming off an entertaining 2-2 draw against New Zealand where their attacking quality was on full display. Iran managed to equalize twice with goals from Ramin Rezaeian and Mohammad Mohebi, but were unable to find a third goal.

While Iran’s counter-attacking speed can punish any team, their backline will face a massive challenge trying to contain a motivated Belgian frontline. Belgium remains favored to advance, but a failure to win here would make their final group match a must-win scenario.

Player to Watch

At 34 years old, the Napoli midfielder remains the heartbeat of Belgium’s creative engine. After a tightly contested opener where Egypt successfully crowded his passing lanes, De Bruyne will look to get on the scoresheet in Los Angeles, whether its scoring or assisting.

Uruguay will aim to take a definitive step toward the knockout stage on Sunday when they face tournament darlings Cape Verde in Miami.

Uruguay struggled to establish themselves during a sluggish 1-1 draw against Saudi Arabia. La Celeste looked vulnerable in transition and had to wait until the 80th minute for midfielder Maxi Araújo to score to rescue a point.  

Uruguay desperately needs a victory on Sunday to avoid a must-win showdown against Spain in their group-stage finale in Guadalajara.

Cape Verde enters this match with immense pride after pulling off the opening round’s biggest fairytale—a 0-0 draw against the No. 2 FIFA ranked Spain. Making their World Cup debut, the tiny African nation was led by their overnight sensation in goal.

The undeniable star of Cape Verde’s opener was veteran goalkeeper Vozinha, who stood like an absolute wall to deny multiple certain goals. To repeat the miracle, Cape Verde will need another perfect defensive display, but dealing with Uruguay’s relentless physical pressing for 90 minutes will test their depth to the absolute limit.

Player to Watch

The 40-year-old veteran keeper turned back the clock against Spain, pulling off spectacular saves to preserve a clean sheet. Cape Verde will heavily rely on his organizational leadership and shot-stopping ability. If Vozinha can replicate his opening-day magic in Miami, Cape Verde might just be able to pull off another historic result.

To round out Group G, New Zealand and Egypt meet at BC Place in Vancouver for Sunday’s final game. With the group perfectly balanced, the winner of this matchup will put themselves on the brink of a historic knockout stage berth.

New Zealand completely shattered external expectations in their first match, battling to an exciting 2-2 draw against Iran in Los Angeles. Entering the tournament as the group’s lowest-ranked side, the All Whites played with immense bravery and clinical precision.

Forward Elijah Just was the star of the evening, scoring an incredible brace to give New Zealand a deserved result. The All Whites proved they possess the transitional speed and technical quality to punish any defensive errors, and they will bring immense confidence into Vancouver.

Egypt is coming off a highly disciplined 1-1 draw against top-seeded Belgium. The Pharaohs executed their game plan perfectly in the first half, taking a shocking lead through Emam Ashour in the 19th minute. While an unfortunate second-half own goal ultimately cost them a historic win, Egypt’s defensive structure proved it can stymie some of the best attackers in the world.

Egypt will likely present more of a challenge for New Zealand’s frontline than Iran did, but with the group entirely up for grabs, this could turn into a back-and-forth battle where small mistakes could lead to multiple goals.

Player to Watch

Elijah Just introduced himself to many fans watching New Zealand’s opening match, scoring in both the 7th and 54th minutes to secure a crucial point for the All Whites. Just’s clever movement off the ball, raw pace, and clinical finishing will be tested heavily against the Egyptian backline. If his teammates can supply him with service, Just has the form to score again.
 

England vs New Zealand: Joe Root ‘won’t give up’ but Black Caps ’99 per cent’ likely to level Test series at The Oval | Cricket News

Joe Root passed 14,000 Test runs on Saturday and reached stumps at The Oval 25 runs away from a 42nd century in the format, but he will have another number on his mind – 281.

That is how many more runs England need to pull off a record, and remarkable, chase of 463 against New Zealand in south London after closing day four on 182-5.

The tourists seem all but certain of victory – Stuart Broad makes them 99 per cent favourites and Simon Doull 98 per cent – yet with Root still in, England have a “smidgeon” of hope, according to another Sky Sports pundit in Michael Atherton.

Highlights from day four of the second Test as England closed on 182-5 chasing a record 463 to secure a series-sealing win

Atherton said: “I can’t really see a way out of this for England, but those who have tickets are lucky that England’s best in Root is still at the crease. There’s just a smidgeon of hope, maybe.

“It’s a quality New Zealand attack. We saw that at Lord’s [in the first Test], albeit on a much more helpful pitch. You’ve got to work hard and fight hard for your runs.

“They’ve got four seamers who keep coming, in Matt Henry, Kyle Jamieson, Nathan Smith and Will O’Rourke, and give you very little.”

Doull added of Root, who will resume on Sunday morning alongside debutant Jordan Cox: “I don’t know if he has ‘give up’ in his DNA. Not many Yorkshiremen do. He will be saying to Cox, ‘we can do it’.”

‘Root an amazing accumulator’

Sky Sports Cricket’s Stuart Broad on Joe Root:

“I mean this as the greatest of compliments, but you don’t really notice Root.

“He just scores runs, guiding it down to third man, pushing it through extra-cover, clipping it off his pads. He has got to 75 and you think, ‘how has he got there?’

“You remember Harry Brook dancing down the pitch and hitting over extra-cover or backing away and slicing over backward point, whereas Joe is just an amazing accumulator.”

‘Brook is box office and you want to watch him bat’

England looked toast at 40-3 when Ben Duckett was caught off O’Rourke clothing a pull to mid-on, 10 overs after Emilio Gay and Jacob Bethell had fallen in Jamieson’s double wicket-maiden.

However, a 97-run stand between Root and Harry Brook boosted the hosts’ chances of an improbable series-sealing win, with Brook making 58 before he was dismissed by Matt Henry, having played some stunning shots as he reached fifty from 33 deliveries.

Praising Brook, Doull said: “You have to take the good with the bad with Brook.

“There will be times, like at The Oval last year against India when he got out when the game was probably in the bag, where you want him to be slightly better, but you can’t chastise the bloke for averaging 50-odd.

Harry Brook’s wicket, caught at slip off Matt Henry, was a blow to England as they target an improbable victory in south London

“I don’t like the term, ‘that’s the way he plays’ as that is often a bit of a cop out but he is a very good player and frightening, I would imagine, to bowl to in a mood.

“There was only one way he was going to play and while he didn’t kick on, he is box office and you want to watch him bat.

“Yes, you want to watch him bat for longer but he has a Test triple hundred and four other scores over 150, so sometimes you have to temper throwing the cup of tea at the TV when he gets out in a strange way with ‘just sit back and enjoy it’.”

Brook was dismissed in a conventional way on Saturday, snicking to slip with wicketkeeper Tom Blundell stood up close, and Doull added: “He might think: ‘How am I going to play when the keeper comes up to 77-85mph bowlers?’ Hopefully he will look at that.”

Ben Stokes showed England what they are missing with a sizzling 95 off 118 balls for Durham in the County Championship

Root to the rescue?

While England were toiling in London, usual captain Ben Stokes, dropped for this game after breaking a midnight curfew he was part of establishing, spanked 95 from 118 balls for Durham in the County Championship against Northamptonshire.

Stokes, who seems likely to return for the third Test at Trent Bridge from Wednesday, has history when it comes to reviving England from seemingly lost causes, most notably in the 2019 Ashes Test at Headingley when he struck an unbeaten 135 in a one-wicket win.

This time, though, it is milestone man Root on whom England’s hopes of a heist appear to rest.

New Zealand will know that while he is there, the job is not yet done.

Japan vs. Tunisia Prediction, Odds, Picks For World Cup Match

Japan and Tunisia are set to face off in a Group F match at the 2026 FIFA World Cup on June 21, 2026, at Monterrey Stadium on FS1. 

This historic match will mark the 1,000th fixture in the tournament’s history. 

Japan came from behind twice in the opener against the Netherlands, ultimately earning an important 2-2 draw against the Group E favorites. Daichi Kamada’s heroic 89th minute goal was the latest goal in Japan’s World Cup history. 

Japan continues to be a second-half team at the World Cup, as nine of Japan’s last 10 World Cup goals have come in the second half. Japan had 52% possession and seven shots in the second half against the Netherlands while only controlling 31% possession and taking three shots in the first half.

Meanwhile, Tunisia is coming off a 5-1 loss against Sweden. The disappointing loss was Tunisia’s largest-ever margin of defeat at the World Cup. Its 2026 opener was extremely uncharacteristic as it only allowed one goal in three group stage matches back in 2022. 

After losing its opener, Sabri Lamouchi became the first manager fired mid-World Cup after one game. He was replaced by Hervé Renard, who will now lead the team the rest of the way.

From FOX Sports Wagering Analyst, Chris ‘The Bear’ Fallica:

  • Tunisia was so poor in the opener that it sacked its manager. Enter the well-traveled Herve Denard. Japan was awesome in the opener and if it can bring the same level here, goals will surely follow against one of the weaker sides. Take Japan over 1.5 goals scored.

Aryna Sabalenka: Top seed stunned by Jessica Pegula in deciding set as American reaches Berlin Open final | Tennis News

Top seed Aryna Sabalenka saw her Wimbledon preparations take a major hit as she was stunned by Jessica Pegula in the deciding set of the Berlin Open semi-finals.

The American sealed her fourth win over Sabalenka in 13 WTA Tour meetings with a stunning 6-4 6-7 (4-7) 6-0 victory as she secured a spot in the final.

The ​28-year-old, who exited the ‌French Open in the quarter-finals to Russian ​Diana Shnaider, struggled to find her rhythm after a slow start, and Pegula ​took the opening set ⁠following an early ⁠break.

Sabalenka stunned

Since the WTA rankings were first published in 1975, Aryna Sabalenka is now the first world No 1 to concede 6-0 deciding sets at multiple and consecutive WTA-level events

Pegula was leading 3-1 in the second-set tie-break before a rain delay lasting over two hours washed away her momentum and handed it to Sabalenka, who sent the contest into a deciding set shoot-out.

Pegula, the 2024 Berlin champion, reasserted control by winning the final six games, sweeping Sabalenka in the decider.

All four of Sabalenka’s Grand Slam titles – her most recent at the 2025 US Open – have come on hard courts, and she ⁠is still chasing a first ​Wimbledon crown after three semi-final ​runs.

She lost this year’s ​Australian Open final to Elena Rybakina ⁠in three sets, a year after finishing runner-up to Madison ⁠Keys.

Pegula will face either Czech Linda ​Noskova or the Philippines’ Alexandra Eala in Sunday’s final.

Women’s T20 World Cup: Australia beat Netherlands by 98 runs to continue unbeaten start to tournament | Cricket News

Australia maintained their winning start to the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup with a comfortable 98-run win over the Netherlands at the Hampshire Bowl.

After opening the tournament with wins over South Africa and Bangladesh, six-time champions Australia made it three from three in Group A with a record-equalling tournament total on Saturday.

England amassed 219-1 against Sri Lanka in the opener at Edgbaston last week.

After being put in to bat first, Australia set an imposing 219-6 from their 20 overs with the Netherlands only able to muster 121-3 in response.

Beth Mooney top scored for Australia with 74 from 42 balls but had to retire hurt due to back stiffness.

Her total was complemented by solid stints from Ashleigh Gardner (58) and Georgia Wareham (41), before Kim Garth (2-20) and Annabel Sutherland (1-23) took the wickets during an unsuccessful chase for the Dutch.

Mooney earned player of the match honours and said of her enforced exit: “I’m all good. Just precautionary, probably just not used to all the bus travel we’ve been doing.

“The Southampton trip is a pretty long one, so I look forward to that again tomorrow!

How it all finished up at the Hampshire Bowl

“As an opening batter and top-order batter, your job is to score runs so, from my point of view, I did my job pretty well today.

“Had a couple of good partnerships there, first with Georgia Voll and then Ash Gardner. I thought we were very comprehensive and the bowlers did a great job restricting them to 120.”

The Netherlands have lost all three of their group games so far on their tournament debut, although Babette de Leede caught the eye in their innings with 56 not out off 57 balls on her landmark 100th T20I appearance.

Robine Rijke also celebrated reaching the same milestone.

De Leede and Sterre Kalis combined for 96 from 91 balls from the fourth over to the 19th. Kalis, dropped on 21 and 40, was bowled for 44.

“This is a massive moment for us,” de Leede said. “Australia are a quality team [so] to learn from them, see how they go about their innings, it’s just incredible.”

Australia next face Pakistan at Headingley on Tuesday evening, while the Netherlands return against South Africa in Bristol on Thursday.

The Liverpool forward was electric for Sweden in its opening 5-1 win over Tunisia. Isak scored a goal and added two assists as he routinely cut through Tunisia’s defense using his speed and skill. But going against the Dutch defense is the test of another level. If Isak can do that, Sweden might pull off a surprising result. He will know what he is up against as he will likely have several occasions when he has to go against his Liverpool teammate in Virgil van Dijk.

Ivory Coast’s teenage winger is well known to German fans as he was one of the top young players in the Bundesliga this season with RB Leipzig. Known for his explosive speed, skillful dribbling, and his ability to finish with either foot, Diomande will be a handful for Germany to defend. 

He also brings with him a unique background that saw him move to Florida in the United States as a teenager. It was there he played for Yulee High School and joined the DIME academy, which is a private athletic training club in Daytona Beach. It is hard to believe that one of the game’s top teenagers was recently playing high school soccer. But now, he has a chance to go against one of the world’s most successful national teams.

Ecuador’s all-time leading scorer is the player to watch in this game as the team needs to score early and often against Curaçao to secure three points and build up a positive goal differential.

The left-sided attacker has had a lot of success for Japan with 11 goals from 26 caps dating back to his debut in 2023. Against the Netherlands, he scored his team’s first goal to even the game at 1-1. Japan is fighting through adversity due to injuries and the likely loss of Kubo will put a lot of responsibility on players such as Nakamura. But with Tunisia’s confidence shattered, he could have openings to do damage. Tunisia showed vulnerability against Sweden’s pacey players such as Alexander Isak. Nakamura might be able to find a similar level of success in this game.

Mercedes reveal reasons for ‘very painful’ reliability problems after George Russell, Kimi Antonelli costly retirements | F1 News

Mercedes believe they understand the reasons behind their “very painful” reliability problems so far this season as they work on introducing fixes as the 2026 campaign progresses.

The world championship leaders have suffered costly race-ending failures for George Russell and Kimi Antonelli in two of the last three events.

Russell retired when leading last month’s Canadian Grand Prix, while Antonelli dropped out with three laps to go when running second in last Sunday’s Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix.

Mercedes’ customer teams, notably McLaren, have also experienced power-unit issues in the first months of the sport’s new era of engine and chassis rules.

And while the problems have not all been exactly the same, technical director James Allison believes they have got to the heart of overriding issues linked to the battery.

“I think anyone who’s a keen watcher of the sport will have seen that this has laid a few Mercedes engine cars low over the season so far,” said Allison on the team’s Nu Silver Arrows Radio Show.

“They’re not all identical, but they do sort of originate in the same broad part of the battery. And I think that most of the areas of risk have been understood and, with a bit of luck, when we start to sort of phase in the new modules into the racing season – we call the battery the ‘module’ – then our fortunes as a fleet should pick up.

“Obviously for us, that’s an important thing. These DNFs are very, very painful.”

Please use Chrome browser for a more accessible video player

Toto Wolff warned Mercedes must solve their reliability issues to fight for the championships after Kimi Antonelli’s late DNF in Barcelona, followed by George Russell’s retirement from the lead in Canada.

On how they go about balancing the chase more performance from the car with shoring up reliability, Allison said: “You accept that there will be failure.

“We try to make sure that failure happens in testing or on rigs and that it happens as little as possible when you’re out there trying to earn championship points.

“Now, clearly, it doesn’t always work because occasionally the car will DNF and that is definitely a failure of our process and all of our attempts to deliver performance without the downside of that performance.

“But when a failure like that does happen, then in the first instance, and perhaps before it’s fully understood, then the team will tend to take a slight half step backwards to be more cautious with the equipment, to push it slightly less hard, just to give a little bit of resilience to the kit that’s obviously suffering.

Speaking on the F1 Show podcast, Jacques Villeneuve believes Mercedes teammates Kimi Antonelli and George Russell will be put under pressure by the return to form of Lewis Hamilton.

“But a different part of the team will try to figure out what was the root cause of that failure to design that out, prove that out, and put something back on the table that is sufficiently robust.

“So you do a first intervention that is just to try to sort of give the vulnerable thing an easier life while then working on a proper, proper cure that lets you really cane it.”

Allison confident Mercedes can hit back after Ferrari upgrade gains

Even before Antonelli pulled off track in the closing stages when his W17 went into electrical shutdown, Mercedes were poised to suffer their first race-day defeat of the season in Barcelona.

Ferrari’s Lewis Hamilton had combined strong pace and tyre management with a well-timed Virtual Safety Car on a three-stop strategy to seize into the lead into the race’s closing stages, eventually winning by 19.6s from Russell.

Hamilton had also come within a tenth of beating Russell to pole on Saturday in Ferrari’s most competitive showing of the season so far.

It came after the Scuderia introduced a big upgrade to their car in Spain on a weekend that rivals, including Mercedes, brought smaller additions.

Highlights from the 2026 Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix.

Allison believes the pecking order will be continued to be strongly influenced by the in-season development race – but is confident Mercedes, who lead both world championship races, have the capability to keep nosing back ahead.

“I think what you’re seeing mostly there is these are very young rules,” said Allison.

“Our car was launched with a bit of a head start on the other teams, a head start that we’ve been able to maintain for a number of races. But the fact that the rules are so young mean it is relatively easy at the moment, because the rules are not yet as explored as they might be, to find performance.

“And a significant upgrade package is worth about as much as the gap we had between our car and the others at the beginning of the season.

See how the grid came together to celebrate Lewis Hamilton’s Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix win.

“So if Ferrari bring an upgrade package to a race unanswered by one of our own, then it will close the gap that previously felt comfortable and I think that’s mostly what we’re seeing.

“Of course, we’re not without guns in this fight and, in due course, our car will receive its own upgrades.

“As long as we can keep the overall development slope in the factory steep and then deploy it when we think it’s sufficient to do so and suits us to do so, then we should be able to re-establish the gain that we had at the beginning of the year if our development slope in the factory is matching everyone else’s.”

Mercedes lead Ferrari by 72 points in the Constructors’ Championship, while Antonelli is 41 points ahead of Hamilton and 50 points clear of Russell in the drivers’ standings, with the Austrian Grand Prix next up this coming week.

Negative Reviews

“I placed 4 bets and when I submitted my wagers it glitched and error out. So I logged out, got back in and again another error. Waited a few seconds finally was able to submit my bets. A few hrs later I login to check my bets and to my surprise I see 12 bets pending and live. It was the exact same bets I place earlier but 3x. Why would I submit the same duplicate bets multiple times vs just once.”

They cater to both the players that can afford to make large bets and those of us at the other end that stick to a budget and make significantly smaller bets. Hence the $5 deposit minimum. (Love that feature).

Then there’s the almost instantaneous withdrawal wait. The ease to switch between deposit methods. I could go on and on.”

Negative Reviews

“This app is good if you plan on never ever reaching customer service or having any issues with the app. However if you ever need to reach customer service there is a huge issue. There is no phone number so you have to email them. Takes 1-5 days for them to answer or they ignore you.”

Choosing between the two largely comes down to personal preference and how you like to bet. Odds, markets, and promotions are identical across platforms, so whether you prefer the convenience of betting on your phone or the expanded view of a desktop browser, you’ll get the same core experience either way.

Sportsbook Apps Benefits

Sportsbook apps give bettors the flexibility to wager anytime, anywhere, without being tied to a computer. They’re built for speed and convenience, making it easy to place bets on the go or react quickly during games. Live betting is fully integrated into most apps, allowing for fast, in-game wagers as odds shift in real time. Push notifications keep users updated on bet results, new promotions, and odds boosts, ensuring you never miss a key opportunity.

Betting Site Benefits

Online betting sites are ideal for research-heavy bettors who prefer a more detailed, multi-window setup. Using a desktop allows you to compare odds, check stats, and track multiple games simultaneously without switching screens. There’s no need to download an app or use storage space, and the lack of push notifications means fewer distractions or impulsive betting prompts, making it easier to stay focused and deliberate with your wagers.

 Sportsbook Apps & Betting Sites FAQ

Can I sign up for multiple sports betting apps at once?

  • Yes. In fact, signing up for multiple sportsbooks is common and often recommended. It allows you to claim several welcome bonuses, compare odds between operators, and take advantage of different promotions.

What is the #1 sports betting app?

  • The answer depends on what you value most. DraftKings is often considered the most well-rounded overall, while FanDuel leads in NBA betting, bet365 shines for soccer, and Caesars is popular for profit boost promos.

Do sports betting apps pay real money?

  • Yes. Licensed sportsbooks pay out real money winnings to your chosen withdrawal method. You can withdraw profits using options like PayPal, bank transfers, Play+ cards, or other supported methods.

What is the best sports betting app to make money?

  • No app guarantees profits, but choosing sportsbooks with consistently competitive odds, frequent boosts, and a wide range of markets (such as DraftKings, FanDuel, or bet365) can give you more opportunities to find value.

Is there a difference between sportsbook apps and their betting sites?

  • Functionally, no. Odds, markets, and promotions are identical. The main difference comes down to personal preference: apps offer more mobility and push notifications, while sites provide a larger layout for research and multi-window use.

Can I make sports bets if I’m in another state?

  • You can only place bets while physically located in a state where the sportsbook is licensed and legal. Sportsbooks use geo-location technology to verify your location before accepting wagers.

Are sports betting apps legal in every state?

  • No. Sports betting legality varies by state. Some states have fully legalized online and retail betting, others allow only retail, and some still prohibit sports betting entirely. Always check your state’s regulations.

Which betting app has the fastest payouts?

  • PayPal, Venmo, and Play+ withdrawals are typically the fastest across most sportsbooks. DraftKings, FanDuel, and bet365 are known for consistently quick processing times.

What’s the safest sports betting app?

  • Any licensed sportsbook in your state is considered safe. All legal operators use encryption, secure payment processing, and are heavily regulated by state gaming commissions to protect users and their funds.
