goes to Williams, an experienced goalkeeper at the age of 34. All Mexico may be with an opening here AND THAT IS THE ONLY GOAL OF THE WORLD CUP. [cheering] SCORED BY JULIAN KINZ. [music] He might have BEEN BORN IN COLOMBIA, BUT HE'S A HERO OF MEXICO RIGHT NOW. And this place is shaking. They're in possession South Africa. They're trying to play their way out from the back. It's a poor ball from Roman Williams. It's picked off by a brilliant press from the Mexicans. You know, Lero stepping in, being aggressive, getting Mexico back on the ball. And Ginis, he does the right thing really. He just puts his laces through the ball. Just goes for pure power. Gets a bit of luck through the keeper's legs. A dream start for Mexico. [cheering] >> You can hear the Mexico fans chanting mira. They absolutely love this guy who was just signed a new deal with his club. And now Mexico flood forward with five. That's a great ball. [screaming] THAT SHOULD BE THE POINT IN THE BAG. AND ALREADY A BIG FIRST STEP TO QUALIFICATION FOR MEXICO. He goes level second with Jared Borgetti in terms of the alltime goalc scoring list for Mexico. Only Javier Hernandez has scored more than him in the history of this great nation. And that IS CLASSIC RA JIMENEZ who makes it 2-0. But his movement into the box. He doesn't run offside. That's an experienced striker's goal. It's been some week for the Mexico number nine. LONG THROW HEADED ON. IT'S IN THE CAPTAIN FOR CZECHA. LATISLAV CR. A BREAKTHROUGH FOR CZECHA. They're clinical. It's a fantastic head up. Reads it. Meets the ball at its highest point. I've got to say Kim doesn't really have a chance with that. It's a wonderful header. Yeah, this is where they have to move the ball a lot quicker. Not go to every player. Miss a player out. You have to move this check aside out of position. They're very, very comfortable just shuffling across >> and playing behind again. IT'S A GREAT BALL FORWARD. BIG CHANCE. THE SHOT is in. >> [cheering] >> IN. BOB HANG IS FOUND KOREA'S EQUALIZER. 1-1. [cheering] WELL, he's been very good this second half. Picking on picking up little pockets, getting on the ball, trying to make things happen. It's exactly what he's in the team to do. Fantastic technical ability. [cheering] just keeping possession and then that's fantastic little run. Knows exactly where the goal is, but this little bit of quality just opens up the goal. Little flick over the goalkeeper there. It's a wonderful goal. [cheering] >> Gile couldn't flick it along. Keeps it moving now for Korea. Over the top. Wang had continued that run. ALWAYS IN THE MIDDLE AND OH SCORES THE SUBSTITUTE GETS THE JOB DONE. KOREA FROM ONE N DOWN TO 21 UP. Everything about this goal [cheering] is wonderful. You look at I I've already spoken about the the relationship between Wang and and Beckon Ho that partnership there. He knows that Wang's making the run. Execution is perfect but then he has the composure to pick out O. Well, like you see, [cheering] just make sure the connection's right. But has really influenced this game. That's what leaders do. It's a wonderful goal. Wonderful finish. Just opens up the foot. Oh, IT'S A LOVELY FLICK ON AND IT'S A BOSNIA GOAL. BOSNIA AND HERZUGOME MAKE THEIR PRESENCE FELT ON THE GLOBAL STAGE. THEY ARE UP AND RUNNING AT THE WORLD CUP FINALS. A SET PLAY SITUATION PAYS DIVIDENDS. Kone Fner and Herziggo are set in their formation just saying come and attack us then make something happen then Canada looking to oblige here it's Kyle we're in [cheering] the goalc scoring [cheering] feeling they craved on their own patch Kyle Laren steps forward for Canada from THE BENCH TO DELIGHT ALL THOSE WATCHING ON. AND HOW THE GAME CHANGES IN A FLASH. Jesse Morris has gone full out with attack. He's made four really offensive decisions here to get a opportunity to go for a goal to get at least a point from this game. That's a quality finish. Absolutely brilliant on his first touch, wasn't it? Absolutely brilliant. Well done, Jesse Mar. Freeman. [cheering] This is nicely worked by the USA trying to stretch the Paraguay back line. They've [cheering] certainly done that. There's a big chance. It's an on goal. [cheering] Looked like it came off jamanne Badia, BUT THE USA HIT THE FRONT. IT WAS A DYNAMIC ATTACK. IT HAD MINUTES, BUT IT NEEDED A PARAGUAY boot [cheering] to TURN IT PAST THE STRANDED goalkeeper in Orlando heel. [cheering] Well, he could almost claim an assist there, Pulysic. [cheering] And a stretch down the right side of the defense again. Should be two. And it is [cheering] two. And this time, NO ONE IS GOING TO TAKE THE GOAL AWAY FROM FULLERIN BALAGON. THE THRILL OF A LIFETIME FOR THIS POPULAR USA STRIKER. AND PARAGUAY ARE IN DEEP, deep trouble. What a moment for him. [cheering] He'll always remember. But the measure of Paraguay's quality was shown in qualifying included a 1-0 win against Brazil, 2-1 against Argentina, 2-0 against Uruguay. came from behind twice at extreme altitude against Bolivia to draw, BUT THEY'RE UNDER PRESSURE. HUGE PRESSURE. [cheering] SENSATIONAL FOLLOWING [cheering] BALAGON WITH THE MOST CONVINCING of finishes. Balagon helps himself to a second and the USA's third. And this is just simple. Tieman is finds the gap between fullback and center back. Alderete tries with the [cheering] slide tackle. He has to make it because once Balagon gets into this position, he's calm. Oh, and he finds that top corner. [cheering] Almiron doing well and they've SET THEMSELVES UP NICELY AND SCORED. And it's the substitute MARITIO WHO CELEBRATES. THE FIRST real incision. >> Well, it comes from the goalkeeper. Free kick. But when it falls to Enciso, he's got a picture in his mind. He lays it to Maritzio. It's a perfect weighted pass. Referee's view to Maritzio who then just firmly, crisply side foots that into the corner. Maybe there's hope. [cheering] Time for maybe one last USA attack [cheering] where Pepe [cheering] Freeman. This is Raina. Oh yes, GIO RAINA. [cheering] HISTORY FOR THE USA. FOR THE FIRST TIME, THEY SCORE FOUR GOALS IN A WORLD CUP MATCH. AND WHAT A CALM FINISH THIS WAS. Talk about putting the seal on the victory. This is one FOR THE ARCHIVES. THE outside of the right foot arcing away from heel. That is beautiful from Raina. Well, if there's a way to round off a magnificent day for the United States of America. That was it. [cheering] [cheering] Shay Adams who has brought it down a treat. Ganon do now past experience Adams is there AND MCGIN AND IN FOR SCOTLAND. A GOAL ALMOST THREE DECADES IN THE MAKING. Scotland are here and they HAVE PRESSED THE GO BUTTON ON THEIR 2026 WORLD CUP. John McIn with the goal. Well, maybe some special words by Steve Clark at the water break. It's a really welltimed run and in one we won situations. He has very quick feet. [cheering] Ducks a little shoulder. Really good save by placed at first and then really unlucky. McIn scuffs his shot deflected in the goal. This is exactly what Scotland needed. And this is a goal at the absolute right time for Scotland. [cheering] Australia swarming forward. THAT'S A LOVELY TOUCH AND THAT'S A LOVELY FINISH. [cheering] AND IT'S AUSTRALIA WHO STRIKE FIRST. NETOR WITH THE OPENING GOAL. >> [cheering] >> A SWIFT COUNTERATT ATTACK UNDOING T HERE and the men from down under are on top of the world. A great ball in behind. He runs off the shoulder. It's arc back inside with the pass touch to take the defender out. Composed finish. Fantastic goal from Australia. number four being replaced by number six. And do the substitutes have an immediate impact? BECAUSE AUSTRALIA ARE COMING FORWARD AND THEY'VE MADE IT TO [cheering] COLOR MECCA [cheering] FROM distance finds the bottom corner [cheering] AND AUSTRALIA HAVE DOUBLED THEIR ADVANTAGE WITH less than 20 minutes to go. A sucker punch for Turkey. Well, his first international goal came in a crucial win in qualifying against Saudi Arabia. This his second international goal and it gives Australia a cushion here against Turkey. [cheering] Diaz sifting it through here FOR SARI. WHAT a finish amid the searing heat of New Jersey. IT'S SMILE sari lights up Moroccan hopes. THAT WAS DELICIOUSLY COOL. This ball by Raheem Diaz was right through the heart of that Brazilian back foot for this lad to run on to. And boy did he take it confidently. But that's a relaxed, composed, absolutely brilliant finish. An hour in and truth be told for the most part there's only been one team in this. Oddly, it's not Brazil, but Venicius Jr. can change all of that. This is Junior. We know Gimmear. Vinnie Jr. again. Denious Junior [cheering] lashes in the equalizer. A superstar goal for Brazil. The points are brilliant. Brazilian difference. [cheering] Well, when you're struggling, when you can't string two or three passes together, when you're low on confidence, you look to your superstars to try and dig you out of a hole. Venicious Junior has just done that big time. What about this? It's world class. It's absolutely lethal from the Real Madrid player. Zakaria teasing cross into the middle. Is it going to be touched in? Is that a penalty? What does the referee say? He says SPOT KICK. FOUL BY ABUNADADA. [cheering] It's Freer. And he both attempted to get on the end of that ball. It's a hefty hefty challenge, isn't it? >> Brave to a degree from the goalkeeper to come out. Makm Abunardada has made a number of huge saves already. >> Can he keep this spot kick out from Embelo? It's Emilo and it's 1-0 Switzerland. They said they wanted to make an early breakthrough and they have done exactly that. casually walking up, watching where Abunad goes, almost waiting for the goalkeeper to jump to his left and cool placed in the opposite corner. So, it looks as though Katar will travel north from here to Vancouver to take on the co-hosts Canada with a defeat in their opening game unless something happens in the last few moments. DECENT BALL IN AND IT'S HEADED IN. BAM. HOOKI. WHAT AN ENDING. IT WAS A SUPERB CROSS IN AND HOOKI WAS ON THE END OF IT TO MAKE IT 1-1 WITH JUST SECONDS LEFT. Hookie the man climbing above Muheim at the back post. We talk about how good Kobal is in the Switzerland goal. He's got absolutely no chance with that. He's thundered past him. That is what it means to score at a FIFA World Cup. [cheering] >> Germany next for Kivoir. What a run this is AND SQUARE FOR THE FINISH INTO THE CORNER. [screaming] AND KIGUA TO AMADIO THE SUBSTITUTE. breakthrough late late in Philly. The man who got the winner in their recent win over France may have just broken some Ecuadorian hearts in the Philadelphia stadium tonight. And what could mean a big big three points in this group. Great finish from Dio. Oh lovely ball through from Brown and suddenly Germany are in. danger here. What a heroic block that was from a from Abyspo. Now it's Muziala Brown on the back foot. Meta Vietz Meta again. [cheering] Stunning goal. WONDERFULLY TAKEN BY FELIX META. Germany in business in their opening match. The first goal in Houston's World Cup story is scored by one of the oldest names in the book, Germany. This is Oby for Kiorasau looking to spread it to the right and spread it. He does common nuding behind towards Hansen. There's Licardia AND THERE'S THE STRIKE AND THERE'S THE EQUALIZER. OH, UNBELIEVABLE. >> [cheering] >> LEARDO KADENIA. [cheering] History in Houston. A NATION OF SCARCELY MORE THAN 100,000 SOULS HAS JUST SILENCED MILLIONS. GERMANY WON. CURASAU WON. MANUEL NEUER upon his return is beaten. Brown delivering and flex in. >> WELL, THEY HAD BEEN WARNED AND THEY HAVEN'T HEEDED THAT WARNING BECAUSE NICO SCHLOTTBECK PUTS GERMANY BACK IN FRONT. Four stars on the shirt, two goals on the board now. Brown flashes one across, matches onto it. Really good feet. Takes a tumble. The referee says penalty >> right at the end of the half. Germany now with a chance to really tighten the screw. Big moment this for Germany on the cusp of Halime. It's Hberts and he rolls it in. [cheering] He's on the board AT THIS FIFA WORLD Cup and Germany will go to the break. 3-1 up. Little collective sigh of relief here for Germany. Sane for Germany. Kimh. Good ball, Mussala. OH, HOW GOOD WAS THAT? Misala extends Germany's lead IN A FLASH EARLY IN THE second half. Just a spectacular ball and spectacular goal >> as Unav flicks it and it's FINISHED OFF BY NATHANIEL BROWN WHO GETS IN ON THE ACT. [cheering] His first goal for Germany. 51 they lead. The world remembers the exits, but this is Germany remembering who they are. Viets Ram Havtz Kimish and in from unavix [cheering] for Germany. They are rediscovering themselves. They are announcing themselves. Germany six. Curisal one. He's been on the pitch 14 minutes, got a goal and an assist. Dennis Unda. [cheering] Germany on course for their biggest World Cup win since uh meeting Saudi Arabia 8- nil in 2002. And there might still be time for more as it's pushed on by unund [cheering] with his second of the day [cheering] >> to inflict more pain on the World Cups newcomers. But this has been a lesson in clinical finishing from the Germans. Roani Rinders done plenty of this on the training ground. It's fired in low was obviously the intention, but too low. And it's in. [cheering] Virgil van Djk puts his trademark on the opening game for the Netherlands in the 2026 World Cup. >> [cheering] >> We've talked about his goal scoring capabilities and he's shown it to the world again. >> Well, he's such a threat. Great ball in and just beautifully controlled and guided into that far corner >> and they deserve their lead. They have been the better team. >> Van Djk. Six minutes into the second half. His 13th goal for the Netherlands. He's only one behind Ronald Kuhman now. There's Kubo needs to impose himself on the game. He's got the talent to do that. Nakamura UA they're aiming for they need a rallying cry. Japan. Kubo. Oh, deflected and in. Nakamura had the shot. They've got the rallying cry. [cheering] 1-1 in Dallas. >> Great run. Really good run from Kubo. Then he shows a bit of composure [cheering] and you just feel that Nakamura there doesn't have the room for the shot. He certainly does. Dais Maida there. It's very close. It's his touch actually. [cheering] Certainly hits Van Hecker I think Martin as it flies past for Brooken. He's got no chance with it. Great strike from Nakamura take the chance. Now we got a proper game now. I'm happy to say there's a good half an hour of it left. Good fate. >> Raenbeck who gets into those positions and doesn't shoot as often as you might think. But Somerville's having a crack here. He's off and running [cheering] and the Dutch are back in front. His first goal [cheering] in international football and that he let fly from a tightest angle. Really >> great goal but it's a great finish. A really good strike that the way he hits that. >> Yeah, >> got enough pace on it. Starts outside the post and brings it back in. Great goal. Great response with the corner. [screaming] It's 2-2. It's Agawa. [cheering] It's Bedum here in Dallas. Never right off Japan. [cheering] One0 down, 2-1 down. And here they are battling deep, deep into the afternoon to make it 2-2. [cheering] Well, we'd expect nothing less of Japan than to keep going. I mean, it's a great leap. There is a deflection, [cheering] but smiles all around for Morasu [music] and everybody on the Japan bench. And of course, the stadium goes crazy. [cheering] [cheering] Started his run forward. He's trying to find a way past the goalkeeper who's swiping. A huge error, a massive block. The attack continues. THE STRIKE IS THERE AND IT IS SUPERB. Yesari with an absolute rocket. And 2,893 days after THEIR LAST WORLD CUP GOAL, Sweden have another absolutely brilliant from Sweden. And it's a depth little chip. NO PRESSURE ON THE BALL WHATSOEVER. Perfectly timed run from Alexander Isach. Brushes the right shoulder of the defender. Recognition from Shamo coming off his line. Initial clearance once again in his own sixyd box. But this strike, an absolute thunderbolt to open up the score line in favor of Sweden. Celebratory moments on the bench, but a moment of legendary status for the 22-year-old midfielder. What can they do going forward here? [cheering] Big chance will open up. There's the strike. ALEXANDER ISAC FINDS THE BACK OF THE NET TO DOUBLE Sweden's lead. [cheering] A brilliant solo run from Isac AND FINISHED WITH CLASS. Sweden have to. [cheering] And here in these shadows of the Sierra Madre Oriental, Sweden are cruising. But for Tunisia goes from bad to worse. Long throw launched into the Sweden Oxmond comes back out. It's Hannibal. Good delivery. THE HEADER'S THERE AND IT'S IN. [cheering] One more reick. Cuts the deficit TO JUST ONE GOAL AHEAD OF THE BREAK HERE in Mterrey. Sweden undone by Chunisia's first shot on target. >> Logger Bielka quick little flick far post sid net. Absolutely nothing the goalkeeper can do about it and an important moment for Tunisia heading into this halftime break. [cheering] >> Chamak had an excellent season at club level. Club African as they claimed their first title. It's given away to Isac. Has the ball at his feet. Rolls it to one side. [cheering] YUKAREZ. It's three for Sweden [cheering] in dreamland here in Mterrey. [cheering] A return to football's top table marked with a third goal and a first at the World Cup for Victor Oculus. He has had opportunity after opportunity and this time it sticks. Sweden three, Chunisia one. Well, Yarez has a 16th goal in his last 15 Sweden camps and everyone with the same celebration. Carlstrom's night is done. A workmanlike performance in that deep line pocket in the sixth position. Swanberg fresh legs as combative as the 27year-old joins the frame. A LOVELY BACKILL AND THERE'S A GOAL. [cheering] >> WELL, he's not been on the pitch a second, but the flag is up. >> I need to speak >> after review. The player number 19 is in onside position. Final decision goal. And there we go. THEY HAD TO CHECK. THEY HAD to listen. They couldn't hear the referee. [cheering] AND THE GOAL HAS BEEN GIVEN THANKS TO A DEAF TOUCH FROM ALEXANDER ISACH. 18 seconds. Spanberg have BEEN ON THE PITCH. THIS IS Sweden's game. [cheering] Sweden for Tunisia won. And what a contrast in the manner in which the goals have hit the back of the net. But surely the most talked about will be that of Matias Samberg. CHANCE OPENS UP ONCE AGAIN. IT'S AN exceptional strike. [cheering] And once again, the Ashen Aari. [cheering] He finishes this GAME AS SWEDEN STARTED IT. A moment of magic from his boot again. A FIFTH GOAL FOR SWEDEN. It is done AND IT IS DUSTED. But the story is just getting started for this young man. >> What a performance from Sweden. [cheering] >> What a performance indeed. I'm out.
