It set a nervous tone in a stadium that had waited a very long time for this moment. Then Bosnia and Herzegovina made it worse. Jovo Luki\u0107 rose to meet an Ivan Ba\u0161i\u0107 corner in the 21st minute and headed home at close range. 1\u20130 Bosnia and Herzegovina. BMO Field fell quiet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What followed was a half of missed opportunities. Jonathan David had a golden chance but couldn&#8217;t convert. Tani Oluwaseyi squandered another. Bosnia defended with discipline and resilience, and Canada went in at half-time behind and frustrated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second half brought the siege. Richie Laryea hit the underside of the crossbar. Sead Kola\u0161inac cleared off the line. Nikola Kati\u0107 produced a last-ditch intervention. Bosnia threw themselves at everything. But in the 77th minute, substitute Cyle Larin received the ball with his back to goal, spun sharply, and drilled a low finish past the keeper. 1\u20131.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Canada&#8217;s first-ever World Cup point. The stadium erupted. Forty years \u2014 across the 1986 and 2022 editions \u2014 of World Cup hurt released in a single moment. It was not the win they wanted, but it was history, and it was earned.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Match_2_%E2%80%94_USA_4%E2%80%931_Paraguay_SoFi_Stadium_Los_Angeles_6_30_AM_IST\"><\/span><b>Match 2 \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zee5.com\/sports\/football\/fifa-world-cup\/2026\/0-6-4z5974253\/0-2-5z5974716\/teams\/usa\/usa-squad\">USA<\/a> 4\u20131 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zee5.com\/sports\/football\/fifa-world-cup\/2026\/0-6-4z5974253\/0-2-5z5974716\/teams\/paraguay\/paraguay-squad\">Paraguay<\/a> | SoFi Stadium, Los Angeles | 6:30 AM IST<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The United States announced themselves with one of the performances of the early tournament. Four goals, a Christian Pulisic masterclass in creativity, and two strikes in stoppage time \u2014 one in each half \u2014 that made the afternoon feel like a celebration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It started in the 7th minute when a Pulisic run and McKennie pass deflected off Paraguay&#8217;s Dami\u00e1n Bobadilla for an own goal. Folarin Balogun added a second in the 30th minute after a disallowed goal for offside moments earlier. Then, in the fourth minute of first-half stoppage time, Balogun cut past a defender and curled a finish into the top corner. 3\u20130 at half-time. Stunning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paraguay gave the crowd a brief moment of concern in the 72nd minute when Maur\u00edcio finished to make it 3\u20131. But in the seventh minute of second-half stoppage time, substitute Giovanni Reyna settled it with a sublime outside-of-the-boot finish from the edge of the box. 4\u20131. SoFi Stadium was still bouncing long after the final whistle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_bigger_picture_after_Day_2\"><\/span><b>The bigger picture after Day 2<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Group B: Canada on one point, Bosnia-Herzegovina on one point. The draw keeps both sides alive but means neither can afford another slip. Group D: the United States sit top on three points with a goal difference that will make every other team in the group take notice. Paraguay, despite Maur\u00edcio\u2019s goal, has a steep mountain to climb.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Two days into the FIFA World Cup 2026\u2122, the pattern is becoming clear: nothing is predictable, stoppage time is when tournaments are made or lost, and the host nations are very much in this.
