Group D has been one of the most entertaining groups at this year’s World Cup. Hosts USA have already secured top spot after an impressive start to the tournament, opening with a commanding 4-1 victory over Paraguay before following it up with a comfortable 2-0 win against Australia.
Australia currently occupy second place thanks to their surprise victory over Turkiye in their opening match, while Paraguay sit third after recording a 1-0 win over the same opponents.
At the foot of the table are Turkiye, who once again have failed to live up to the “dark horse” tag often bestowed upon them by fans and pundits ahead of major tournaments.
Group D concludes in the early hours of Friday morning (BST), with the USA taking on Turkiye in Los Angeles while Australia and Paraguay face off in Santa Clara.
