## Resource

The U.S. men’s team fell 3-2 to Türkiye in a gritty, high-stakes group stage finale — a loss that stung but didn’t shake their top group spot. With nine fresh starters and a revamped defense struggling to contain Türkiye’s attack, the U.S. still flashed promise: a goal from a corner, a dynamic Christian Pulisic return, and set-piece prowess. Coach’s rotation hints at smart rest for knockout rounds — now they turn focus to Bosnia, needing grit, chemistry, and Pulisic’s magic to keep their World Cup run alive.
