## Resource

Host nations Mexico, Canada, and the U.S. all avoided defeat in their World Cup opener, with Mexico claiming their first-ever win in the tournament, the U.S. delivering a historic 4-1 rout, and Canada salvaging a dramatic 1-1 draw. The U.S. now faces Australia — a team they’ve already beaten — while Canada eyes their first-ever World Cup win against Qatar, and Mexico takes on resilient South Korea. With only one host nation ever losing their opening match, North America is off to a strong start, setting the stage for a thrilling tournament.
