## Resource

On Friday, the USMNT look to build on their perfect start, and they face Australia in Seattle. This is Morning Cupdate, brought to you by The Home Depot. In today’s show, we look forward to the USA’s second game against Australia: can they build on their dream start? We also preview Scotland vs Morocco, Brazil vs Haiti, and Türkiye vs Paraguay. We reflect on Thursday’s games: there were huge wins for Canada and Switzerland, plus Mexico secured their place in the last 32, and Czechia and South Africa drew 1-1. Betty takes on Rory Smith in Morning Cupdate vs The Night Cup, and we hear about one of the tournament’s curses.
